Chatbots are frequently used in a wide variety of online situations, from customer service to sales. One of the best-known examples of Conversational AI delivered through chatbots <a href=\"\/en-gb\/blog\/improve-ecommerce-customer-service-experience\/\">includes eCommerce sites<\/a> where bots allow customers to ask questions about a particular product and receive an instant response. As the technology underpinning AI chatbots has advanced, they have evolved from rudimentary tools to ones that can engage with consumers on a level that feels quite human and personal.<\/p><p><img alt=\"vattenfall chatbot nina conversational ai\" src=\"https:\/\/www.cm.com\/cdn\/web\/large\/vattenfall-chatbot-conversational-ai.png\"> <\/p><h2>Do all chatbots use AI? <\/h2><p>Not all chatbots utilise AI. Some are rules-based, delivering tightly structured dialog based on user input. They are only able to recognise questions and comments when they match the keywords selected by the chatbot\u2019s programmer. An artificial intelligence bot, on the other hand, employs machine learning and natural language processing to respond to human input even when it deviates from a pre-programmed script. <\/p><h2>What are the benefits of an AI chatbot? <\/h2><p>When compared to a rules-based chatbot, an AI chatbot comes with several additional benefits. These include: <\/p><ul><li><strong>Availability -<\/strong> By employing an AI bot in place of a human agent, it becomes much easier for businesses to provide 24\/7 availability. Whenever a consumer has an inquiry, an AI chatbot is ready to give an instant response. Based on integrated systems and databases, it can actually help the customer. A scripted chatbot can only follow the script. <\/li><li><strong>Adaptable -<\/strong> Whether it\u2019s for customer service or HR support, lead generation, or sales assistance, AI chatbots have a variety of uses. The bot can adapt to the needs of the customer. <\/li><li><strong>Affordability - <\/strong>One of the main drivers behind the use of AI chatbots is their affordability. The total cost of ownership is low compared with employing additional human members of staff. <\/li><li><strong>Customer experience - <\/strong>By collecting a wealth of additional data, AI chatbots can greatly improve the customer experience. By fostering more interactions, they can streamline the customer journey, deliver real-time personalisation, and enable companies to collect actionable data that can be used to improve products and services. With a well set up, advanced AI-powered bot, a customer can fulfil their entire customer journey within conversations. <\/li><\/ul><h2>How to build an AI chatbot <\/h2><p>While talk of machine learning and artificial intelligence may make the idea of building your own Conversational AI chatbot sound daunting, help is available. Start by thinking carefully about what you want to achieve with your chatbot, come up with a clearly defined strategy, and then start fuelling your chatbot with the data it needs. <\/p><p><img alt=\"chatbot digitalcx conversation\" src=\"https:\/\/www.cm.com\/cdn\/web\/chatbot-digitalcx-conversation.png\"><\/p><p>Although it may sound challenging at first, <a href=\"\/en-gb\/blog\/5-tips-chatbot\/\">creating a chatbot<\/a> is surprisingly straightforward. Here\u2019s why: <\/p><ul><li><strong>Code-free - <\/strong>Many chatbot creation services offer low- or no-code options so individuals with no coding experience can create their own chatbot. <\/li><li><strong>Easy to integrate -<\/strong> Chatbots can be integrated into a variety of customer communication channels, including WhatsApp, Facebook Messenger, Viber, Telegram, SMS, Google RCS, and Web Chat apps. <\/li><li><strong>Test and tweak - <\/strong>Once you\u2019ve built your chatbot, you can test it on a local server with friends and colleagues to identify any potential issues. These can then be resolved before a broader rollout.

It's hosted by the provider - not the end user. <a href=\"\/en-gb\/mobile-service-cloud\/\">CCaaS software<\/a> contains a wide range of features, including all those that are likely to serve modern contact centre operations, including call routing, recording, analytics, CRM integrations, and more. <\/p><p>Instead of building their own contact centre, businesses can choose CCaaS software, opting for ongoing OpEx subscription fees over substantial, one-off CapEx costs. This means you don\u2019t have to commit to multiple subscriptions for inbound and outbound communication channels, or even hardware telephony solutions. CCaaS offerings are all-in-one cloud-based solutions, with all tools you need as a contact centre. These offer a number of advantages that are likely to suit many businesses. <\/p><h2>CCaaS vs CPaaS vs UCaaS: What\u2019s the difference?<\/h2><p>CCaaS is just one of several different approaches that businesses are taking to their communication strategies. Two other popular solutions are <a href=\"\/en-gb\/communications-platform\/\">Communication Platform as a Service<\/a> (CPaaS) and Unified Communications as a Service (UCaaS). All three approaches are cloud-based, provider-hosted, and offer benefits in terms of affordability, scalability, and flexibility. There are, however, key differences between the three forms of software. <\/p><p>CCaaS is primarily concerned with external communications, facilitating interactions with consumers. This is in contrast with UCaaS solutions, which have a much greater focus on internal collaboration, and CPaaS, which is more developer-focused. UCaaS provides a centralised, omnichannel interface for both internal and external communication. CPaaS provides standards-based APIs so organisations can create their own bespoke communication channels by either building apps from scratch or adding communication features to existing software. CCaaS, on the other hand, is often still multi-channel but is always geared towards improving the customer experience. <\/p><p><a href=\"\/mobile-service-cloud\/\"><img alt=\"Mobile Service Cloud channel agnostic\" src=\"https:\/\/www.cm.com\/cdn\/web\/channels-for-ecommerce-human.png\"><\/a><\/p><h2>The benefits of CCaaS<\/h2><p>The reason for the growing popularity of CCaaS software - the global CCaaS market is predicted to reach <a href=\"https:\/\/www.juniperresearch.com\/press\/ccaas-market-value-to-near-16bn-by-2027\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">$15.6 billion<\/a> by 2027 - is the number of advantages it grants business, These include: <\/p><ul><li><strong>Affordability: <\/strong>Managing your own contact centre - both in terms of hardware and software can be expensive. With CCaaS solutions, these costs are covered by a third-party cloud provider, with businesses paying a recurring subscription fee. As well as reducing costs, this can also simplify them.<\/li><li><strong>Scalability:<\/strong> When businesses expand, they must ensure that their communication solutions can manage their increased needs in terms of bandwidth, storage, and connectivity. This growth can create an administrative burden when handled in-house but a cloud CCaaS solution can scale up and down rapidly to meet company needs.<\/li><li><strong>More detailed customer insights: <\/strong>The built-in analytics tools accompanying CCaaS solutions can help businesses gain a greater understanding of their customers - when they were last contacted, what their preferred communication channel is, and track voice sentiment. More advanced solutions can even employ predictive analytics to forecast future customer behaviour.<\/li><li><strong>Higher quality service:<\/strong> Instead of simply posting a contact number online, a CCaaS solution offers customers a more responsive experience. Businesses can ensure that calls are returned wherever their employees are based, while integrated CRM tools support the creation of more positive customer relationships.<\/li><\/ul><h2>What's the best CCaaS solution?<\/h2><p>There are a number of different CCaaS solutions on the market, each claiming different strengths that will take company communication to new heights.

Natural language understanding helps decipher meaning from users\u2019 words (even with their quirks and mistakes!) and remembers what has been said to maintain context and continuity.<\/p><p>Once a customer\u2019s intent is understood, machine learning determines an appropriate response.

It answers incoming calls and prompts customers to interact with a pre-recorded message or series of messages, taking them to the appropriate business department based on their response.<\/p>","page":1,"title":"What Is IVR?","text":"<p data-alignment=\"left\" style=\"text-align: left; padding-left: 0px\">IVR also has an important self-service function for relatively straightforward processes such as checking an account balance or paying rent and parking fines \u2013 all without waiting to be put through to a human agent (who may or may not be the right person to handle the call). <\/p><p data-alignment=\"left\" style=\"text-align: left; padding-left: 0px\">Whether the caller is routed through to an agent or not, IVR shortens hold times and enhances customer satisfaction. The immediate advantage for businesses is that they need fewer call agents to handle customer inquiries. <\/p><h2 data-alignment=\"left\" style=\"text-align: left; padding-left: 0px\">How Does IVR Work? <\/h2><p data-alignment=\"left\" style=\"text-align: left; padding-left: 0px\">Customers are greeted with a pre-recorded voice menu once on the line. After navigating the prompts either verbally through voice recognition or manually with the phone\u2019s touch-tone keypad, the caller is automatically transferred to an agent who can help with their inquiry. A major source of customer discontent is to be put through to the wrong person, or even a succession of agents who are ill-prepared to address their specific issue; one of the functions of IVR is to make this problem disappear with a triage system of questions. <\/p><p data-alignment=\"left\" style=\"text-align: left; padding-left: 0px\"><img src=\"https:\/\/www.cm.com\/cdn\/web\/voice-sip-trunk.jpg\" alt=\"voice solutions sip trunk\"><\/p><p data-alignment=\"left\" style=\"text-align: left; padding-left: 0px\">There are two types of IVR: single-level IVR and multi-level IVR. A single-level message might ask the caller to press 1 for customer service, press 2 for payments, press 3 for technical support, and so on. A multi-level IVR will drill down to the specific issue by asking further questions based on the caller\u2019s successive responses to the prompts in the multi-level menu. The challenge for multi-level IVR is to keep the \u201cphone tree\u201d as simple and direct as possible while probing as deeply as the needs of the business require. <\/p><h2 data-alignment=\"left\" style=\"text-align: left; padding-left: 0px\">What Is Conversational IVR?<\/h2><p data-alignment=\"left\" style=\"text-align: left; padding-left: 0px\">Advances in speech-to-text capabilities, Artificial Intelligence and Natural Language Processing are making it increasingly feasible to phase out multi-level <a target=\"_self\" href=\"\/en-gb\/conversational-ai-cloud\/voicebots\/\">IVR menus with voicebot conversations<\/a>. The technology in this space is progressing at an astonishing pace, making voicebot interventions much more versatile and effective. With the help of Machine Learning, businesses can continuously analyse and optimise Conversational IVR to improve customer interactions. <\/p><p data-alignment=\"left\" style=\"text-align: left; padding-left: 0px\"><strong>Download Free Guide: <\/strong><a target=\"_self\" href=\"\/en-gb\/downloads\/voicebots-force-in-customer-service\/\"><strong>Voicebots - The Emerging Force in Customer Service<\/strong><\/a><\/p><p data-alignment=\"left\" style=\"text-align: left; padding-left: 0px\">As people familiarise themselves with the question-and-answer protocols used by smart speakers in the home, they will increasingly welcome and expect to interact with <a target=\"_self\" href=\"\/en-gb\/glossary\/what-is-a-voicebot\/\">voicebots<\/a> in their customer inquiries. <\/p><p data-alignment=\"left\" style=\"text-align: left; padding-left: 0px\"><img src=\"https:\/\/www.cm.com\/cdn\/web\/caic-humanhandover-left.png\" alt=\"human handover\"><\/p><h2 data-alignment=\"left\" style=\"text-align: left; padding-left: 0px\">What Are the Benefits of IVR for the Customer?<\/h2><p data-alignment=\"left\" style=\"text-align: left; padding-left: 0px\"> <\/p><p data-alignment=\"left\" style=\"text-align: left; padding-left: 0px\">The biggest advantages of IVR from a customer\u2019s point of view is reduced holding time and higher first-contact resolution. Simple queries such as a bank balance can be resolved almost immediately, and at any time of day. IVR does not keep office hours but is helpful 24\/7. <\/p><p data-alignment=\"left\" style=\"text-align: left; padding-left: 0px\">Customers also appreciate personalisation such as a level 1 menu question about the language they wish to speak. Integrations with customer relation management systems can help push <a target=\"_self\" href=\"\/en-gb\/blog\/prepare-hyper-personalisation\/\">personalisation to the next level.<\/a> <\/p><p data-alignment=\"left\" style=\"text-align: left; padding-left: 0px\">With each technological advance, the bar is set higher for customer expectations. IVR menus that are poorly designed, repetitive, or have unsatisfactory outcomes will lead to customer frustration and therefore damage your brand. <\/p><h2 data-alignment=\"left\" style=\"text-align: left; padding-left: 0px\">What Are the Benefits of IVR for the Business? <\/h2><p data-alignment=\"left\" style=\"text-align: left; padding-left: 0px\"> <\/p><p data-alignment=\"left\" style=\"text-align: left; padding-left: 0px\">A professionally executed IVR system will reflect well on the business and reinforce customer loyalty. Businesses need fewer call centre staff while the money saved can be reinvested to upskill existing agents. IVR is not there to cut corners but to increase customer satisfaction. <\/p><p data-alignment=\"left\" style=\"text-align: left; padding-left: 0px\">IVR gives call centre staff the time to resolve more complex customer issues, even when call volumes are peaking. This improves staff performance and morale. <\/p><p data-alignment=\"left\" style=\"text-align: left; padding-left: 0px\">IVR also <a target=\"_self\" href=\"\/en-gb\/blog\/benefits-of-chatbots\/\">reduces human error<\/a>. A receptionist or call agent might be overwhelmed with high call volumes, or simply make a manual error in routing a call. An IVR system handles every call with the same logical sequence, eliminating the need for judgment calls which are at the roots of many handling errors.<\/p><p data-alignment=\"left\" style=\"text-align: left; padding-left: 0px\">The only judgment calls essential in IVR are those involved in setting up the system and constructing the sequence of prompts. <\/p>","meta_title":"Interactive Voice Response (IVR) - What Is It & How Does It Work","meta_description":"IVR answers incoming calls and prompts customers to interact with a pre-recorded message or series of messages.

This technology is becoming increasingly popular as the need for analog lines becomes redundant for many businesses who have migrated their traditional office telephony setup to a more flexible, scalable environment.<\/p><p>\u2018SIP\u2019, which is short for Session Initiation Protocol, is an application layer protocol that lets you run your phone system over an internet connection as opposed to legacy systems and traditional phone lines. A \"trunk\" is a line or link that carries signals and connects nodes in a communications system \u2013 in other words, a pipe that carries the data channels inside it to connect two locations. <\/p><p><img alt=\"SIP Trunking\" src=\"https:\/\/www.cm.com\/cdn\/web\/sip-trunking-cm.svg\"><\/p><h2>How Does SIP Trunking Work<\/h2><p>A SIP trunk is, in essence, a digital alternative to the analog phone line that many businesses historically used to make phone calls. SIP allows organisations to connect one, twenty, up to thousands of concurrent channels directly to an IP-enabled Private Branch Exchange (PBX), enabling those within the company to make long-distance phone calls via the internet. SIP trunks utilise a packet switch network, in which voice calls are broken down into digital packets and sent across a network to the final destination.<\/p><p>While for landlines a session simply consists of voice signals, SIP allows companies to transmit and receive different types of data such as voice, images, videos, documents, and other forms of media. <\/p><h2>What Is a SIP Trunk Provider<\/h2><p>A <a href=\"\/en-gb\/voice\/sip-trunk\/\">SIP Trunk provider<\/a> allows businesses to connect their in-house IP PBX systems to the PSTN (Public Switched Telephone Network). Company\u2019s use SIP Trunk Providers to make outbound calls and receive inbound calls. Many providers offer much more than that. CM.com\u2019s Voice Management app, for example, lets you scale up whenever you want using a convenient cloud interface, easily manage and monitor your outbound and inbound calls, and observe real-time insight into your voice data, including volume, destinations, cost, and quality statistics.<\/p><h2>What Are the Benefits of SIP Trunking<\/h2><p><strong>Low Call Charges<\/strong><\/p><p>SIP trunking allows telephone calls to be made over the internet. The most efficient route is chosen and there is no need to set up a dedicated line over the PSTN for the duration of the call. Compared to calls made over traditional telephone lines, this approach saves resources and significantly reduces call charges.<\/p><p><strong>Quick and Easy Implementation of VoIP <\/strong><\/p><p>SIP trunks are easy to install and configure. Companies can benefit from VoIP advantages such as flexibility and cost savings - without restrictions or cuts to their business processes.<\/p><p><strong>Maximum Investment of Existing Infrastructure<\/strong><\/p><p>SIP trunking allows businesses to use their existing non-IP infrastructure - including PBX equipment - for as long as possible, in turn enabling them to maximise their investment.<\/p><p><strong>Lower Infrastructure Requirements and Costs<\/strong><\/p><p>SIP trunking makes it possible to move to cloud-based PBXs, which reduces the need for in-house hardware, software, and support.<\/p><p><strong>Future-Proof Telephony<\/strong><\/p><p>With SIP trunking, the upcoming ISDN switch-off can't hurt businesses because they have the option to upgrade their infrastructure from ISDN-dependent PBXs to VoIP-enabled systems. By making your telephone system fit for VoIP today, you can ensure that you will be able to maintain your usual work processes even after ISDN is switched off.<\/p>","meta_title":"What is SIP Trunking","meta_description":"SIP trunking is a type of Voice over Internet Protocol technology that lets businesses make calls over a data connection rather than a phone line.","publish_date":"2021-04-07 10:25:45","created_at":"2021-04-07T08:25:45.000000Z","updated_at":"2021-11-05T15:52:36.000000Z","deleted_at":null}

{"id":4954,"group_id":72,"localisations_l10n":"en-GB","status":"active","name":"Voicebot","slug":"what-is-a-voicebot","description":"<p>A voicebot is a conversational agent that uses artificial intelligence and natural language understanding (NLU) to interpret the intent and meaning in the speech of its conversational partner. We also refer to this technology as 'Conversational IVR'.<\/p>","page":1,"title":"What is a voicebot?","text":"<p><a href=\"\/en-gb\/conversational-ai-cloud\/voicebots\/\">Voicebots<\/a> use input voice recognition and translation (commonly referred to as speech-to-text or STT) alongside a text-to-speech (TTS) engine to understand human speech and respond using everyday language. <\/p><p>When you think of voicebots, your mind may instantly jump to the likes of AI voice assistants like Alexa or Siri. But in the customer service world, conversational interactive voice response (IVR) is quickly becoming one of the most utilised forms of conversational AI. <\/p><p>In simple terms, conversational IVR is the technology behind a voicebot, allowing callers to engage with a self-service solution with their voice. In contrast to traditional IVR, there is no static menu and callers don't have to dial in numbers. Conversational IVR can understand full sentences in voice and can even understand context. The voicebot will then reply in full sentences, allowing callers to lead the conversation.<\/p><p>With a voicebot, you can not only route customers to the right agent, but also facilitate service. For example, you can use conversational IVR to answer customer queries, to update customers on the status of an order, or to assist customers in updating personal information like an address or telephone number. <\/p><p>Traditionally with <a href=\"\/en-gb\/voice\/voice-api\/\">IVR<\/a>, callers would have to dial in numbers (referred to as touch-tone user inputs) in order to be redirected to the right person or department. Conversational IVR offers a faster, smoother, and more personal experience for customers. <\/p><p><img alt=\"human handover\" src=\"https:\/\/www.cm.com\/cdn\/web\/caic-humanhandover-left.png\"><\/p><h2>Voicebots vs Chatbots <\/h2><p>Like a voicebot, a <a href=\"\/en-gb\/chatbot\/\">chatbot<\/a> is an automated conversational interface powered by artificial AI, which you can use to automate and streamline your early-stage customer service interactions. <\/p><p>While voicebots can interpret the spoken voice and communicate in kind, chatbots are text-based messaging solutions that interpret written text and respond using text \u2013 facilitating a conversation between bot and user that mimics person-to-person messaging conversations. Since a voicebot converts speech to text and text to speech to communicate, it can use the exact same database as your AI chatbot is using. <\/p><p>Voicebots and chatbots both have their advantages, and you can use both to help provide customers with channels that suit their communication preferences. <\/p><h2>What Are the Benefits of Voicebots? <\/h2><p>Voicebots can provide <a href=\"\/en-gb\/blog\/voicebots-for-customer-service\/\">several benefits to customer service teams<\/a>. Let\u2019s look at a handful of some of the biggest. <\/p><ul><li><strong>Provide a Smoother Customer Support Experience <\/strong><\/li><\/ul><p>The touch-tone method, where callers must press specific numbers in order to be connected to the right department or agent, can be irritating and time-consuming for customers. <\/p><p>In contrast, conversational IVR offers a more fluid form of communication, seamlessly connecting callers to the right agent or department and providing the information they need. <\/p><p>Since you can use the same database and dialogs as for all your other <a href=\"\/en-gb\/conversational-ai-cloud\/\">Conversational AI solutions<\/a>, you guarantee the same answer on any channel. Whether a customer asks a question to your chatbot, looks it up on your dynamic FAQ page, or asks it to the voicebot; the answer will be the same. If you want to change an answer, such as opening hours, you only have to change it once and all your bots will be up-to-date. <\/p><ul><li><strong>Offer 24\/7 Customer Support <\/strong><\/li><\/ul><p>Customers hate to wait. But your customer service representatives can\u2019t always be available. Whether agents are overwhelmed by high call volumes or customers call outside of working hours, your agents\u2019 availability and customer needs don\u2019t always align. <\/p><p>Luckily, conversational IVR can offer fast, round-the-clock self-service support to customers. This ensures customers can get a response to their customer queries and issues 24\/7 \u2013 without having to wait on holds for hours. <\/p><ul><li><strong>Enable Self-Service Options <\/strong><\/li><\/ul><p>Autonomous customers are happy customers. You can put conversational IVR to good use, helping customers to source information and make their own changes \u2013 such as updating an old password or canceling a subscription to a service. This helps customers feel empowered and self-sufficient and helps them swerve time-consuming conversations with customer service representatives. <\/p><ul><li><strong>Improve Employee Satisfaction Rates <\/strong><\/li><\/ul><p>In addition, voicebots can help reduce customer service teams\u2019 workloads, reduce stress levels, and improve employee satisfaction levels. Conversational IVR takes the stress and pressure off your customer service agents by handling a high number of customer questions. This frees your agents up to focus on more complex and less tedious aspects of customer service. <\/p><ul><li><strong>Scale Without the Expense <\/strong><\/li><\/ul><p>It\u2019s expensive to recruit and train a large number of customer service agents and ensure that there are enough people on staff to answer customer queries around the clock. In addition, voicebots help with call reduction by addressing customer questions and issues \u2013 reducing the number of lengthy and costly calls between customers and agents. <\/p><p>Moreover, in comparison to conversational IVR, maintaining legacy IVR systems can be expensive. Voicebots offer companies the ability to scale and meet customer support needs cost-effectively. <\/p><h2>How to Get Started with Voicebots <\/h2><p>Voicebots provide a more seamless, natural way for customers to communicate with technology. By reducing workloads for customer service representatives, offering 24\/7 customer support, and allowing you to scale without the expense, voicebots are a smart way to address your front-line customer service needs.
