Contact center as a service (CCaaS) combines the principle of contact center hosting and cloud-based contact center infrastructure. CCaaS enables companies to enlist a pay-as-you-go model to get resources as per their requirements, such that the companies can fulfill the need for a multi-channel approach designed for both employee experience and customer service purposes. This approach contains various features such as automatic call distribution (ACD), interactive voice response (IVR), email, text, chats, social media channels, computer telephony integration (CTI), and quality management — all delivered and maintained by a single cloud provider.
CCaaS primarily helps to improve both employee and customer experiences by providing preferred communication channels, including live chats, emails, voice calls, and social media. It also allows seamless integration into a unified platform that promotes information tracking from various channels. Additionally, CCaaS offers critical customer information such as previous purchases, billing history, and behavioural, demographic, and location data on a single interface for agents or employees, thus helping to save time while improving the customer experience. To meet business and customer needs, vendors are also implementing new innovative technologies into CCaaS. The transformation involves integrating multichannel support with omnichannel solutions and automating with artificial intelligence (AI), machine learning (ML), and natural language processing (NLP).
