Zendesk presented their latest releases at their AI Summit this week. New announcements include Omnichannel AI Agents, the new Zendesk Voice, Agent Copilot and improvements for Zendesk QA. Read my deep dive article to learn more!
Last months' Relate event was all about Zendesk AI and how it can help you improve your CX or EX experiences. One of the key points notes not only in the main keynote, but also in sessions during the event was the concept of automation and automation rates for your tickets.
This article will give you an overview of Zendesk's Omnichannel Routing, Agent Availability and the brand new Queues features.
Zendesk Roundup
Following the releases at the AI Summit, Zendesk released new Messaging features, including multi-conversations and the ability to suspend users. The Admin Center received updates with new dashboards and the ability to categorize views, and plenty of fun new APIs were released.
Widget
The new multi-conversations in Zendesk Messaging allows for, well, multiple concurrent conversations with AI Agents and your team in the Zendesk Web Widget and Mobile SDK. This feature is now available to all customers.
AI Agent
Zendesk’s new Messaging triggers enable automations similar to email tickets. You can notify customers of wait times, request CSAT feedback, or let them close a conversation. These triggers enhance the customer experience by allowing more customized interactions within Messaging.
Custom Objects
Zendesk’s Custom Objects, released last year, enable you to expand platform data, like linking assets or contracts to tickets. Initially, end-users couldn’t interact with custom objects, but a recent update allows you to add Lookup Fields in forms.
