However, Electrolux's contact centers were not cloud or Internet-based, making it impossible to support remote work.

The challenge was to find a partner that understood their vision for the future and could help them find the appropriate solution to simplify communication functions between clients to ensure fast and efficient engagement with customers at every interaction.

The implementation of Twilio Flex and CloudWave's solution transformed Electrolux's contact center operations. The transition from a traditional, on-premise contact center to a cloud contact center was seamless with zero downtime. The solution also allowed Electrolux to integrate their customer data platform with their communications platform, providing a more streamlined view of the various systems. This meant that agents could now quickly access all the necessary and relevant customer information from one single dashboard versus having to switch between screens or other user-interfaces. The solution also enabled agents to send information via SMS to a consumer while remaining engaged with them on the phone, leading to a better customer experience. The company is now exploring the use of AI as a potential new communications channel for consumers who prefer the self-service route and plans to leverage their capabilities to enable channels such as WhatsApp, Facebook Messenger, and LINE for real-time language translation.
