Automate and Optimize Your Customer Support

Use the automated workflow options to deliver useful content to your customers, keep them engaged, help them adopt and use your product properly, send them manuals and other useful information.

The following Flow allows you to send an email with links to manuals, and if a customer does not click the link, they will receive a call with text-to-speech or a pre-recorded message after which they will have the option to talk to the agent.

To be more successful, you can create a new Flow that will check customer satisfaction with the support process.
