The report, which evaluated 13 vendors, is released as customer communications are evolving beyond automated document generation software toward being a catalyst for improving customer experience through data insights and personalized customer touch points. Shifting away from one-way transactional communications and towards meaningful, two-way customer conversations not only improves a company’s customer experience but leads to higher customer satisfaction, continuous engagement, better brand loyalty, operational efficiencies and contributes to increased profit margins.

According to the report, "Smart Communications has a deep technical partner ecosystem and a growing list of systems integrators as well. Partners can contribute code and solutions to Smart Communications' Conversation Cloud Marketplace, which offers a selection of prebuilt accelerators. New partnerships include OneSpan for esignature and Duck Creek for the insurance vertical." The report also noted, "Smart Communication offers an NLP plug-in for content analysis and a low-code orchestration flow builder to drive the customer journey next best interaction.
