Sprinklr, the unified customer experience management (Unified-CXM) platform for modern enterprises, today announced that Vodafone Idea Limited (Vi) – a leading telecom service provider in India – is using Sprinklr Modern Care, Modern Research and Social Engagement & Sales to transform its digital customer service and engagement strategy and design a seamless process for addressing Google reviews.
Vi runs a network of more than 450 retail stores and 2,000 small stores with over 230 million customers across the country. In line with its customer-first approach, Vi realized that it was important to address customers’ Google reviews and take prompt action for the respective stores. Before Sprinklr, Vi agents would respond to Google reviews by asking customers to email them for assistance. Through this process, the agent would often lose the context of the original details posted to Google, resulting in a poor customer experience.

Vi is using Sprinklr’s Unified-CXM platform to:
- Engage with negative Google reviews in a positive way
- Capture customer information privately and securely with fewer customers leaving before completing the purchase
- Unify Google feedback with Vi’s existing Sprinklr CXM processes
- Create the opportunity to convert bad reviews into positive customer experiences
With Sprinklr’s support, Vi has achieved:
- 500% increase in Google reviews from June to Oct. 2022
- 40% increase in positive Google reviews for physical stores in 2022
- 2.4x faster response time to Google reviews in 2022
“All the retail, physical, and digital experiences are converging for Vi. We can now utilize Social Listening to encourage better in-store retail experiences. This has created a pipeline for us to hold store executives responsible in a way that was not possible before,” said Ashish Sharma, Executive Vice President, Customer Service Head, Vi.
