CIM vision (Customer Interaction Management) The Internet revolutionized Customer Relationships by bringing proximity and an all-in-oneness environment. Presently, an Internet user can buy goods and services anytime, anywhere in just a few seconds. The customer expects a level of reactivity compliant to the power of the Internet. The first incoming emails management tools have resulted from this new need. Chat and Web SelfService channels have first developed as a natural extension from the Web, prior to SMS technologies linked to a new mobility age. More traditional channels such as mail, fax and telephone are now competing with these new channels but remain very popular, more than ever. A specific channel isn’t designed to replace another one but to supplement it. Each channel has its own objectives, which explains why today companies are more and more keen to provide their customers with a choice of channels according to their queries and needs when it comes to contacting customer services. This is when we can move from a Multichannel contacts Management concept to an integrated concept of Customer Interaction Management. This is a matter of centralizing into one single tool all the contact channels around a single knowledge base, in order to enable a more consistent message from a company and also to get a very accurate and panoramic view of customers (interactions history, customer file...).
