An Introduction to Service Cloud Voice with Amazon Connect

Service Agent

A New Solution for the Contact Center Pre-integrated with Amazon Connect, Powered by Salesforce

Service Cloud Voice seamlessly enhances your Salesforce Service Cloud investment with telephony. By bringing together voice communications, digital channels, and CRM data, you equip your agents with smart and streamlined service to provide your customers with a great phone experience from anywhere. Amazon Connect creates a unified contact center experience for customers and agents by providing an integrated voice channel in your Salesforce Service Cloud omni-channel experience.

Why is this a “big deal”?

Phone conversations have been disconnected from CRM and the service agent console. A common problem in legacy contact center solutions is that agents must scramble through multiple browser tabs and separate application windows in order to serve their customers. This type of behavior leads to additional staffing overhead, longer on-boarding times, cross-training issues, longer average handle time, and complicated technological implementations that make future scaling an impossibility.

Service Cloud Voice is natively built on the Salesforce Service Cloud platform and available with pre-integrated telephony from Amazon Connect. With Service Cloud Voice, your Salesforce CRM and telephony are seamlessly integrated to automatically populate records, suggest actions or content with AI, and unlock powerful reporting options with Einstein Analytics. The call-control tool integrates with omni-channel and the service console for easy access to all digital and phone conversations with fewer clicks and screens. Agents can find everything they need for their day-to-day responsibilities in one place with the Service Console – different contact channels, conversation transcriptions, customer information in the CRM, and AI-driven knowledge sources. In addition, supervisors can see all digital interactions and provide the needed help.
