    Any business that has a customer base could benefit from Gladly. If you call, text, social media message, etc Gladly can do all of these functions and keeps all of these conversations easily located so that you can refer back to previous conversations. The ability to leave notes on the account is very helpful.

    With the constant changes included in the product, we can now use it for all the customer service scenarios / channels, for e.g. earlier for voice, we had to buy 3rd party CTI based tools, but now Voice Channel being available as the part of the product, that solves that thing. Also we see constantly new AI-driven features added to the product that could save lot of time of the agents while working on the cases like case summary, automate email generation, sentiment analysis etc.

    • Dynamic CS allows you to access a wider customer base and gain artificial intelligence-powered insights into numerous client interaction activities.
    • It assists in gaining deep insights into numerous data analyses performed on various customer interaction activities, as well as data visualization and customer satisfaction enhancement.
    • This product has been extremely beneficial to my firm since it allows us to communicate with customers via a variety of channels, including e-mail and social media.
    • Extensible, and Microsoft responds rapidly to market demand with new features. In terms of service, both Microsoft customer success and technical teams collaborate closely to ensure appropriate delivery.
    • A better way to track client interactions is SaaS-based cloud services. This software may also be linked to outlook.

    Usability
    Gladly Software
    In my 10+ years in the call center industry this has been by far one of the user friendly platform to use. It has been an easy tool to use and train new hires with that is self explanatory and not complicated at all for a agent level employee. Overall platform is easy to read and navigate.

    Microsoft Dynamics 365 Customer Service is generally very user-friendly, especially for those familiar with Microsoft products. The strength of Microsoft Dynamics 365 Customer Service is its integration with Outlook and Microsoft Office products like Word, Excel etc. and it user interface being similar to those products. This makes it easy for user to adopt to any new app.

    Gladly is always available to support its customers. That being said, we really haven’t needed support. The product is intuitive and stable. The reality is the support we receive is more collaboration on how we can help Gladly continue to revolutionize this space.
