Chatbots & Cloud CRM Are Replacing the Call Center Using AI Algorithms

Telemarketing, telecommunications and service call centers traditionally relied on human service operators interacting with customers over the phone. This was for many years just done over the phone until the Web and things such as e-mail took off. Over time, more and more service centers started to outsource employees and customer service to third world countries where cheap labor could be found (there are also companies specialising in such services). For many years customer service relied on customers calling up a service center and asking for help in fixing their system or an error with the software they are using. A call center representative would try to help the customer over the phone from a single location and if that did not work they would route them to a technician or specialist that could potentially access their system remotely.
