Genesys and Limitless Launch New Digital Experience for Consumers #contactcenterworld Customer service issues are so diverse in nature that not all needs can be effectively met through the traditional contact center. In many cases, consumers actually prefer the support and advice that only other users can provide. To meet this need, consumers have long depended on online review systems for education about products and to inform purchase decisions. This trend has only accelerated as consumers increasingly shift to e-commerce from in-person shopping as result of the events of the past year. Unfortunately, recent research suggests that fake reviews are now a far too common reality. Limitless is filling a gap in the service experience by providing consumers access to trusted brand advocates for authenticated, peer support. Businesses also benefit with a ready-to-go talent pool to help scale their workforce during busy periods. Under the partnership, Genesys is making a strategic investment in Limitless to support the growth of its platform. Commenting on the news: "Recent events have highlighted two important trends: how customer service can exist outside the walls of the contact center; and the importance of digital platforms, AI, and automation in enabling such remote service to maintain or exceed customer engagement expectations," said Mila D'Antonio, Principal Analyst, Omdia. "The Genesys and Limitless partnership offers businesses a path to transform and scale their customer service, as well as optimize efficiency, customer resolution and workforce planning." #contactcenterworld Veronica Silva Cusi, news correspondent Date Posted: Thursday, February 4, 2021 About ContactCenterWorld.com ContactCenterWorld.com is the world's premier on-line resource for the call and contact center industry.
