The Future of Customer Experience: Integrating Voice of the Customer Platforms with Emerging Technologies
Quadrant
Knowledge Solutions defines a Voice of the Customer (VoC) platform as an integrated and
comprehensive solution that collects customer feedback whether direct, indirect,
or inferred across various data sources in a multichannel environment. This
platform offers customer insights for analysis and operationalizes these
insights to enhance customer experiences. When effectively executed, VoC tools
provide a robust framework for improving customer experiences through detailed
analysis of customer feedback.
Enhancements
in AI/ML capabilities are driving contextual and hyper-personalized
engagements, improving data analysis capabilities and capturing VoC feedback
from various channels beyond direct surveys. Modern VoC platforms now include
speech analytics that use AI technology to extract critical customer experience
(CX) insights and facilitate intelligent actions based on recorded customer
calls.
Another trend
is the increasing focus on targeted surveys and personalized survey experiences
to assess customer satisfaction, uncover hidden insights, and leverage these
insights in customer-centric strategies to make smarter decisions. In the
current era of customer experience, targeted surveys help organizations
understand unique and evolving customer needs, bridging gaps in customer
experience.
