A Chatbot is a computer program that allows humans to interact with technology using a variety of input methods such as voice, text, gesture and touch, 24/7 and 365 days. For several years, Chatbots were typically used in customer service environments but are now being used in a variety of other roles within enterprises to improve customer experience and business efficiencies. A basic Chatbot might be little more than a front-end solution for answering standard FAQs.
Chatbots built using some of the bot frameworks currently available may offer slightly more advanced features like slot filling or other simple transactional capability, such as taking pizza orders. But, it’s only advanced conversational AI chatbots that have the intelligence and capability to deliver the sophisticated chatbot experience most enterprises are looking to deploy.
Smartphones, wearables and the Internet of things (IoT) have changed the technology landscape in recent years. As digital artefacts got smaller, the computing power inside has become greater. But mobile apps and data-heavy activities don’t go hand in hand. In addition to that consumers are no longer content to be restricted by the communication methods chosen by an organization. They want to interface with technology across a wide number of channels. Chatbots offer a way to solve these issues by allowing customers to simply ask for whatever they need, across multiple channels, wherever they are, night or day.
With this new concept of conversational communication, chatbots have set up new dimensions and introduced new ways of doing business. Chatbots are a useful and desirable technology aimed at easing your customer’s journey.?
