How Does Digital Engagement Work?

The Salesforce Digital Engagement suite integrates natively with Salesforce Service Cloud. It uses Einstein Bots and Artificial Intelligence to automatically route inbound messages and conversations to the appropriate teams and agents

Pre-defined rules determine which agent is best suited to handle a particular query based on factors like skills, experience level, and current workload. Real-time dashboards provide visibility into all digital engagement metrics for better workforce management

From the agent’s console, they can seamlessly manage customer conversations across multiple messaging apps through a single interface. This saves time switching between different platforms. 

With a lot of Salesforce Einstein bots implemented, Routine Automation has extensive experience configuring optimal routing rules and bots to distribute workloads.
