SAP Concur, a leading brand for travel, expense, and invoice management solutions, was facing challenges with their previous chat tool. The tool was not providing the desired level of personalization and optimization. The company wanted a solution that would not only help their sales team drive new leads but also reduce the volume of support inquiries they were receiving. As a global company servicing millions of users, SAP Concur also wanted to nurture their customers at every stage of the buyer’s journey. They realized the need to design and optimize their services based on data, rather than assumptions.

SAP Concur chose Drift as their solution in 2021. The implementation of Drift led to an influx of new leads, increased pipeline, and improved routing efficiency within the first year. Drift was integrated with SAP Concur's existing tech stack, including Adobe products, Tealium, Demandbase, and their CRM, enhancing workflow efficiency, productivity, and customer insights. SAP Concur innovated their customer experience by using personalized playbooks to engage customers at the right moment with the right conversation. They also redirected support inquiries away from their sales team, improving the experience for both customers and sales reps. One of their most successful playbooks allowed visitors to 'skip the form' and talk directly to a person, even during off hours. This playbook was particularly effective on high-value form pages like 'Contact Us', 'Request a Quote', and 'Free Trial'.
