Sinch also enabled JD Group to implement a bot that provides additional services on both Webchat and WhatsApp.<\/p>\n<p>Johan van Zijl, Customer Engagement and Commerce specialist at Consnet, says JD Group previously had a legacy CRM and contact centre solution, which were not integrated and only supported voice and e-mail. A standalone system was used for Webchat. \u201cThis led to inefficiencies in customer service and prevented a single view of all customer interactions. They needed a platform that could provide a uniform customer experience across channels,\u201d he says.<\/p>\n<p>The new system makes it easier for customers to engage with the group and gives agents a single view of all previous interactions and enterprise resource planning (ERP) transactions, including credit information, sales orders, history of all communications and direct breakouts to the backend where more information is required. \u201cEmpowering agents with the right information during customer engagement provides operational efficiencies,\u201d he notes.<\/p>\n<p>Andre Odendaal, Senior Sales Solutions Engineer (EMEA) at Sinch, adds: \u201cBy collaborating with a reputable solution partner like Consnet, Sinch seamlessly delivered a comprehensive solution for JD Group that seamlessly integrated with their existing technology stack. Using Sinch CPaaS automation technologies, Consnet was able to simplify business processes and workflows to handle repetitive and manual tasks and reduce unnecessary complexity and bottlenecks, making it easier for employees to perform their tasks and for the organisation to deliver its products and services timeously to its clients. Working together we ensured the least amount of client downtime by utilising specifically built development platforms to test various scenarios and ensure that the solution caters for all use cases before implementation.\u201d<\/p>\n<div class=\"xhead-item\">\n<h2 class=\"text-h4 itw-xhead roboto-slab font-weight-medium\">Working with a solution partner on CPaaS<\/h2>\n<\/div>\n<p>Ryan Miller, Sales Lead for Africa and Israel at Sinch, says Sinch believes it is crucial to work with solution partners who are familiar with their markets, to ensure Sinch\u2019s CPaaS solutions meet customer needs.<\/p>\n<p>\u201c<a href=\"https:\/\/www.sinch.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><b>Sinch<\/b><\/a>\u2019s partnership with\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.consnet.co.za\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><b>Consnet<\/b><\/a>, as an implementation partner for our CPaaS products, enhances the overall sales and distribution network,\u201d he says. \u201cImportantly, our advanced solutions often require expertise for integration into a specific business environment or third-party applications. Consnet is a specialist 51风流Implementation Partner and therefore it makes sense for them to resell the Sinch CPaaS offering with its native integrations into 51风流CRM (customer relationship management) and ERP (enterprise resource planning) solutions to the local market, bringing their own set of skills and market expertise to our clients.\u201d<\/p>\n<h2 id=\"Theproject\" class=\"xhead-anchor\"><span style=\"font-size: 16px\">The project<\/span><\/h2>\n<p>Through solution partner Consnet, Sinch seamlessly delivered a comprehensive solution that integrated with JD Group\u2019s existing technology stack.
