Customer-centered organizations are looking for different ways to meet the client expectations in this interconnected 24/7 world where messaging is our preferred way of communication.
It is of course not only about technology as pointed out in this article which well explained how T-Mobile reinvented their customer service over three years. Improved teamwork and creative solutions were (among others) essential factors as they increased both the employee and customer satisfaction.
Increased employee satisfaction is also one of the direct benefits when customer service teams start work with our human-directed chatbot platform. For me, this has in a way surprised me during my first six months working here at GetJenny.
Implementing technology successfully in customer service operations is crucial in the upcoming years. As Hubspot's Vice President of Services & Support Michael Redbord wrote earlier this year: "Adopting service technology helps companies manage the increasing demand for outstanding customer service."

Moreover, this is probably only due to my limited understanding of these particular fields of technology.
We have noticed that some organizations are reviewing their customer service technology stack before jumping in to automate conversations and tasks with chatbots. Even though customer service chatbot project with the help of Jenny platform has been a straightforward project even for our large SME and enterprise clients, it may be a good idea to review the surrounding technology landscape. Here are the most common technology categories related to customer service:
We had a better look at each of the categories and listed all together 100+ tools and technologies for customer service in our new ebook. We are planning to update this piece of content so that it will be even more useful for customer service professionals. In case you decide to download it for your use, and you notice that we have forgotten to mention some customer service software you like or know, please let us know in the comments or by contacting me on LinkedIn.
