You probably have some questions about how WhatsApp service works. We're always happy to share our expertise, starting now:
No. We get that service teams don't want to be jumping from one platform to another. That's why, with our service integrations, you can manage your WhatsApp questions from the same inbox as your other channels.
That’s ok. You can automatically answer common questions through charles’ automation features, Journeys. You can also set an “out-of-office" WhatsApp message to set expectations about opening hours – as well as link to a useful webpage while your agents are away.
No. It’s just an extra channel. They’ll chat as they always have through your Zendesk, Gorgias or Freshdesk platform – with the added advantage that WhatsApp messages are generally shorter, less formal, more personal and (many agents say) more fun to write.
Yes. First, you can find out automatically if there’s an existing service ticket. Then you can triage incoming service request by asking questions – via quick replies, lists or free text – for additional context. This message, plus the last 5, are added to your service desk ticket for additional context. This way you can resolve WhatsApp tickets fast and give customers the highest quality, most personalized experience possible.
