Events like Finovate (NYC, September 11-14) bring attention to how important visual engagement tools – like cobrowse, screen share, and one-way video – have become to boosting customer satisfaction across financial institutions. That makes choosing the right cobrowse solution critically important. Cobrowse security and privacy features must be strong for the financial industry to invest in the solution.
When customers of financial companies such as banking institutions, insurance providers, and wealth management organizations, go online, they often encounter a special set of obstacles. They may need to find and fill out specialized forms online and complete long, relatively complex multi-step processes. They know that their money – or the future of their finances – is on the line. Stress and frustration can result if they can’t find the right information or complete the tasks they need to do.
Even worse, they might have security concerns. That’s why it’s important to address those concerns upfront.
Self-service meets personalized assistance
Visual engagement provides the means for the perfect hybrid of self-service and personalized assistance. It revolutionizes customer satisfaction and empowerment in finance settings. Agents and customers are instantly placed on the same page to collaborate as naturally, as if they were sitting next to each other.
