Complete Next-Generation Solution Empowers Businesses to Provide Superior Customer Experiences
Dialpad, the leading AI-powered communications intelligence platform trusted by tens of thousands of enterprises worldwide, announced the launch of Dialpad Support, marking a significant evolution of its Ai Contact Center solution into a complete next-generation platform that fundamentally transforms how businesses approach customer service. The evolution to Dialpad Support reflects the company’s human-first approach to technology.
“By harnessing the power of our native AI capabilities, we’re not just improving efficiency – we’re transforming the entire support ecosystem to benefit agents, managers, and customers alike.”
A Forrester Total Economic Impact report from November 2023, describes how modern contact centers are plagued by long call handle times which are exacerbated by understaffed teams, leading to overworked agents and a poor customer and employee experience. costly, disparate, legacy environment for support software has bred a lack of visibility into agent performance and most alarmingly, unplanned downtime that has resulted in revenue losses – especially as 73% of consumers will switch to a competitor after multiple bad support experiences.
Built to replace outdated, rigid systems, Dialpad Support leverages the platform’s proprietary large language model, DialpadGPT, based on our experience delivering over seven billion minutes of business conversations – the equivalent of over 13,000 years of conversations – to offer AI capabilities that understand specific work contexts and industry challenges, turning every customer conversation into actionable intelligence and automating mundane tasks. This enables support teams to focus on what truly matters: building genuine connections and fostering meaningful relationships with customers.
