Omnichannel
Omnichannel refers to a unified and integrated approach to customer service where all customer interactions — voice, email, chat, SMS, WhatsApp, and social media — are handled in a single interface with shared context. In contact centers, an omnichannel strategy ensures that a customer’s journey is continuous, even if they switch communication channels.
Softphone Smart Connectors enable true omnichannel operations by embedding Genesys Cloud’s omnichannel capabilities directly into the CRM (e.g., Salesforce, SAP, ServiceNow). This includes real-time agent interaction controls, customer history visibility, and AI-based engagement recommendations.
