KooKoo Contact Center integration with WhatsApp
The most obvious use case is for support chat bots, alerts and reminders. But we at Ozonetel believe one other use case will become the dominant use case, WhatsApp as a support channel with human agents.
We believe WhatsApp will become a dominant channel in contact centers world wide. There are multiple reasons for this:
- WhatsApp is ubiquitous. Everyone has the app.
- WhatsApp interface is well known to all customers.
- It is feature rich. You can share audio, video, location etc in the app itself.
- You can integrate bots for repetitive tasks.
So, as of today, we have a full featured cloud contact center integration with WhatsApp. The integration comes with all the features associated with KooKoo Cloudagent including:
- Screenpop: Pop relevant information to your agents when you receive a WhatsApp chat.
- Skills: Route your chats depending on skills of agents.
- Multiple chats: Single agent can handle multiple WhatsApp chats.
- Queues: If all your agents are busy, put your customers in a queue.
- Bot integration: Start the conversation with a bot and then move to human interaction for more complicated queries.
- Live agent monitoring: Supervisors can monitor agents in real time and also barge in.
- Call upgrade: Upgrade the interaction from a chat to a call.
