The COVID-19 pandemic brought new challenges to many businesses. At ECHO Inc., they noticed that people stuck at home began investing in their homes and yards. To invest, many people started buying new lawn equipment, and more people buying lawn equipment led to an increase in customer service requests for ECHO.
ECHO’s customer service footprint at the time had been limited to phone calls, form submissions, and a live chat feature that was buried on their website. They had also spent time building up a knowledgebase with Oracle Service but had struggled to find a way to use it as a support channel. With an increase in volume of these channels due to the pandemic, managing them quickly became a problem. To solve this, ECHO decided to invest in a more efficient support option, a digital assistant, to lead customers to live chat while deflecting simple questions.
The key features of ECHO’s digital assistant are live agent integration with Oracle Service, knowledgebase integration with Oracle Service, and a branded user interface (UI) to live on their website’s home page. With Oracle’s Digital Assistant, these features are mostly delivered with out-of-the-box features. The live agent integration connection is completely delivered with Oracle Digital Assistant to connect with existing chat queues in Oracle Service. Likewise, the knowledge base search uses connections delivered with the platform to search Oracle Service and deliver knowledge articles to the customer. The UI was designed by the ECHO marketing team to meet their branding standards and built using the ODA web SDK. Read the complete article here and watch the webcast here.
