Every day, sales and service professionals are faced with technology challenges. According to Microsoft research, 35% of organizations use at least three different applications to collaborate, and 36% use four or more applications. This approach can result in a significant amount of time spent switching among these applications to find relevant information or manually completing tasks that interrupt their natural workflow and prevent them from focusing on servicing customers.
Not surprisingly, Microsoft found that 64% of salespeople feel they spend much more time using their productivity tools today compared with just 2 years ago, with more than 43% of sales professionals spending more time than they would like manually entering data into their customer relationship management (CRM) systems.
As a result, enterprises have been seeking out technologies and tools that help their sales and support teams capture and incorporate the valuable data and insights that are required to deliver excellent experiences without introducing additional complexity or friction. In many cases, they are looking to leverage the power of generative AI.
