Amazon Connect

Available only to agents with “Talk - Partner Edition” seats (see zendesk.com/talk/pricing).

Deploy the latest generation of proactive, anticipatory customer service with the newly enhanced integration between Amazon Connect and Zendesk Support. This integration enables businesses to leverage sophisticated AI and machine learning services from AWS to improve contact center agent efficiency while reducing the time end-customers spend interacting with customer service.

An integrated solution from Zendesk and Amazon Connect combines advanced contact center capabilities with a sophisticated ticketing system, empowering teams with powerful tools for routing, tracking, prioritizing and solving customer service interactions. Contact centers have a centralized platform for all customer communication to boost agent productivity, maintain full visibility into support operations, and enable seamless customer communication across channels.

Benefits:

Unified interface

Allow agents to take calls from a single support platform by embedding a web-based softphone directly into Zendesk Support. All customer interactions and data including caller ID and history, tickets with call data and agent assignment are stored in one place, giving agents the context they need to provide more personalized support.

Time-saving agent tools

Link callers to existing Zendesk Support end-user profiles based on the caller’s phone number. Zendesk automatically turns calls and voicemails into tickets with information on the inbound caller for easy record keeping and issue resolution. At the end of a call, the ticket is updated with additional details, including call recording.

Advanced AI/Machine Learning services

Combine AWS Artificial Intelligence / Machine Learning Services such as Transcribe, Comprehend and Personalize to deliver more sophisticated, proactive and anticipatory customer service.
