Best Proactive Customer Retention Platforms - Page 4

Proactive customer retention software detects the risk indicators that lead to customer churn and escalation. Churn occurs when customers haven’t received quality support in their customer service experience, such as when their concerns have a slow resolution or are ignored. To proactively address concerns before escalation, this type of software uses natural language processing (NLP), natural language understanding (NLU), or natural language generation (NLG) technologies to recognize sentiments and content that indicate customer dissatisfaction. The dissatisfaction is quantified into a health score to indicate case urgency and severity. The company can administer immediate triage by routing the case to a qualified agent. Proactive customer service is the best defense against attrition.
