Nuance Enables Always-On Engagement with AI-Powered Customer Service MessagingSAN FRANCISCO, Sept. 18, 2017 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Intelligent Assistants Conference – Nuance Communications, Inc. (NASDAQ:NUAN) today announced from the Intelligent Assistants Conference its Customer Service Messaging offering powered by artificial intelligence (AI). Nuance Customer Service Messaging lets enterprises engage consumers with a seamless experience through a combination of real-time and asynchronous communication across mobile channels. Messaging is on the rise with nearly every demographic adopting a mobile mind shift, expecting anytime, anywhere access to information and services. Beyond using it to communicate with friends and family, mobile consumers see messaging as the preferred channel to interact with businesses, making it a key component of an organization’s successful omni-channel customer engagement strategy. Yet despite its overwhelming popularity, the always-on nature of messaging can present new challenges, as enterprises are not prepared to handle the emerging customer service platform, which requires immediate response times to be effective, without hiring more agents or extending call center hours.
