Technology vs. humanity is the age-old debate. The more we innovate, the more we long for the days of human connection. Failed chatbot experiences and frustrating technology has made customers skeptical of the digital-first mindset. In fact, 69% of customers said that a ‘digital-only’ strategy is unacceptable. Customers still want access to a human to ensure their needs are met and their voices are heard.
The argument of technology vs. humanity, however, is not reflective of the future of the contact center. In reality, technology + humanity is the most productive path forward for organizations who want to innovate and improve.
