Level:<\/strong> Beginner<\/h5>\n

A cloud contact centre<\/a> is a customer service solution that allows us to receive and send calls and messages via digital channels (such as chat, WhatsApp and email) over the internet.<\/strong> Because it’s hosted in the cloud, we don’t need physical servers or a switchboard, nor do we need to worry about maintaining and updating them.<\/p>\n

The transition from on-premises to the cloud in Spain was gradual until the arrival of the COVID-19 pandemic<\/strong>, when more than three billion Spaniards worked from home. The need to manage services and teams remotely<\/strong>forced many call centres to migrate to the cloud.<\/p>\n

BENEFITS OF THE CLOUD<\/span> CONTACT CENTRE<\/strong><\/h2>\n

1. GREATER ACCESSIBILITY<\/strong><\/h3>\n

One of the main advantages is that we can work from anywhere in the world<\/strong>, as long as we have an Internet connection, a computer and headphones.<\/p>\n

2. MORE SCALABILITY<\/strong><\/h3>\n

With less hardware, we can increase headcount<\/strong> during peak service periods or expand our business<\/strong> to other countries without having to buy more phone terminals.<\/p>\n

3. LESS MAINTENANCE<\/strong><\/h3>\n

Our provider takes care of software maintenance and updates, so we don’t need to employ a technical team<\/strong> for these processes.<\/p>\n

4. LOWER RUNNING COSTS<\/strong><\/h3>\n

In addition to not having to invest in hardware or pay for licences, the most common model for cloud-based services is pay-as-you-go<\/strong>, so we can only subscribe to the features we need.<\/p>\n

5. MORE INTEGRATIONS<\/strong><\/h3>\n

Speaking of the operational level, cloud contact centres offer APIs and integration tools<\/a> that make it easy to connect to other existing systems, such as a customer relationship management (CRM) system.<\/p>\n

6. MORE SECURITY<\/strong><\/h3>\n

Contrary to popular belief, data is much more vulnerable on a company’s local server<\/strong> than in a cloud-hosted data centre. These providers are subject to very strict GDPR or HIPAA regulations and have the highest security infrastructures.<\/p>\n

7. FIND OUT MORE<\/strong><\/h3>\n

The vast majority of customer service software providers have real-time service status information<\/strong>, allowing us to make immediate adjustments to meet SLAs and make informed decisions at a brand level.<\/p>\n
