Dotlines Group (SG), the makers of Pulse CXM, a challenger of legacy customer experience solutions platforms in SE Asia, announced it is partnering with Aculab, a leading provider of telephony hardware and software. The collaboration will integrate Aculab’s VoiSentry voice biometric system into Dotlines’ Pulse – CXM platform application.
The integration will reduce the numerous steps needed in traditional authentication processes. It will also deliver a superior quality of service, and improved customer satisfaction. The partnership paves the way for highly regulated enterprises, such as Financial Institutions, to authenticate faster, more easily and in a cost-effective manner.
The Status Quo
Traditionally, the caller authentication (identification & verification) process involves several steps to be taken by a user calling into the contact center of an enterprise. The user must verify several layers of static information during a conversation with a live agent. This process is time consuming and causes friction for both the customer and the live agent. In many cases the user cannot provide accurate information due to forgetting or mispronouncing passwords or secret answers. The results in a delayed call resolution and customer frustration. For the enterprise, longer call handling times result in a higher operational cost.
The Synergy
The partnership will combine Aculab’s VoiSentry voice biometric technology into Pulse CXM’s templated platform, which has several communication channels such as Voice, SMS, Chatbots and Visual-IVR. “Pulse CXM’s voice channels now have another product-market-fit proposition to serve Enterprises in the SE Asia market, where mobile technology has astounding growth. VoiSentry biometric engine together with Pulse CXM is therefore strategically positioned to bring about greater operational efficiency for our esteemed customers.” said Sharful Alam, Director & Chief Strategy Officer of Dotlines Group.
The Impact
Using VoiSentry’s voiceprint authentication, the contact center can effectively reduce user verification time from 112 seconds to as little as 15 seconds, with the process fully automated within the call flow. The customer only needs to input his/her voiceprint once, and from the next call, simply speaking into the call will automatically verify the customer and route the call directly to the agent.
“We strive to give our enterprise partners a delightful new way to serve their customers. In SE Asia, where every player is out to gain market share with similar products, only customer service can differentiate brands from one another.” – said Hasan Mehdi, Executive Director of Dotlines Group.
Aculab’s toolkit provided us the perfect mechanism for integration. Pulse CXM is built to accommodate numerous plug-ins for enterprises to use, and Voice Biometric is the newest offer.”
