Digital Customer Experience Moves From the Call Center to the Boardroom

Digital Customer Experience Study Reveals an Increased Emphasis on Top-Down CX Transformation

NelsonHall has completed a new study entitled Digital Customer Experience Services, which analyses the current customer experience (CX) vendor offerings and client requirements and their likely future state.

A major shift in the market is the need to evolve from contact center-driven customer service to a comprehensive CX strategy consisting of new operational models, digital technology, and continuous analytics insights. The report identifies the three key pillars of the transformational strategy:

  • Support from the executive board and senior company leadership
  • Business value justification for adopting digital technology such as CX automation
  • Ongoing co-innovation between vendor and client.

From a client perspective, the current requirements for cost optimization and scalability will remain, but the main focus of their future needs will be on customer satisfaction improvements. In a mature industry where best practices in contact center management are well established, such improvements can be delivered through a truly transformational CX approach.

  • However, cognitive chatbots are in early stages of deployment
  • Organizations require revenue generation optimization through digital models with heavy use of predictive analytics
