As digital transformation accelerates across industries, customer service isn’t just about being available—it’s about being responsive, personalized, and efficient.
Customer service has found a new leading medium—digital channels such as web, apps, social media, and messaging platforms. 51% of customers agree that a poor digital experience is one of the main reasons they switch services, emphasizing the need for seamless, efficient customer interactions across platforms.
