Let’s look at how Service Cloud can facilitate excellent customer service by increasing retention and agent productivity as well as solving a host of process and workflow issues.

The 8 benefits of Salesforce Service Cloud-SAP ERP Integration

Service Cloud means you can deliver fast, personalized customer service that drives growth and improves customer satisfaction. By allowing you to share information seamlessly between all users and departments. It helps agents deliver the right answers quickly and provides insights that can inform your entire business. It also provides reports that give clear direction for customer service improvements.

When you integrate Salesforce Service Cloud with your SAP ERP, data flows easily between both systems. This integration lets you deal with customers quickly, improve customer service, increase transparency, and facilitate better decision-making by sales, account, and customer services teams.

Data management tasks can be automated as well to increase accuracy.

1. Manage cases

When it comes to case management, omni-channel routing automatically matches cases to the agent who can best solve their problem, provides a complete view of customer activity, and logs agent notes automatically.

2. Enable agents

Service Cloud connects data across all departments and systems to give agents a 360-degree view of every customer. It also provides productivity tools, such as ready-to-use templates, and uses knowledge management for fast case resolution.

3. Automate processes

Orchestrate workflows with a point-and-click interface that allows you to log calls, create and update records, send emails, and more. Service Cloud also provides recommended process actions for agents and provides continuity so any agent can revolve requests at any point in the process.

4. Get a broad overview of system operations

With the metrics provided by Salesforce Service Cloud, once you decide on your goals, you can set up the platform to track your progress. You can also:

  • Populate your dashboards from multiple platforms with only the information you need.
  • Use an analytic tool to see how your customer service team performs in real-time.
  • Utilize reports that analyze your metrics to anticipate future customer needs and address them proactively.
  • Take advantage of detailed performance metrics to improve your team’s effectiveness.
  • Track your most important KPIs with Service Wave Analytics.

5. Provide a personalized customer experience

Data from your analytics reports can help your agents understand customers. A complete case history reduces friction by allowing the agent to avoid redundant questions. In addition, you can:

  • Use chat to provide customer service in real-time.
  • Move seamlessly from servicing customers on social media to another communication method such as email.
  • Offer screen sharing and video chat for customers who need more than chat or email can provide.
  • Help customers using their preferred method of contact.

6. Improve the customer journey

Not every customer wants to interact with a customer service agent. Some users want to know more about your products and services, or they would rather find the answers to questions themselves.

Salesforce Service Cloud provides the ability to build both knowledge bases and communities. These platforms give customers a place to learn, discuss, and help each other. By providing these features, your customer service team can concentrate on helping those who really need their time.

You also can send surveys to customers. This lets them know you are interested in what they have to say, and their feedback informs customer service improvements.

7. Reduce stress and workloads for your team

Service Cloud assigns the best agent for each inquiry, prioritizes cases, books service appointments, dispatches the correct mobile employees to handle on-site issues, and gives your agents the right technology to do their best for every customer.

8. Work from anywhere and keep customers content while you’re in the field

With Service Cloud, creating work orders, dispatching, and managing reps in the field is a breeze, and it’s easy to track project progress. With mobile apps, field workers can log in from anywhere to get the details they need to do the job.

Salesforce Service Cloud allows businesses of any size to easily deliver personalized customer service instantly, which impels growth and surpasses customer expectations.
