Challenges

Modernizing Customer Engagement for Service & Commercial Teams

Service Team:
The Toughbook Service team faced growing demand to meet rising customer expectations for digital support. However, their previous chatbot solution fell short—it lacked integration with back-end systems and did not offer advanced AI capabilities. As a result, support agents were burdened with high volumes of repetitive, routine inquiries that could not be automated.

Commercial Team:
Panasonic Connect needed to support customers and prospective clients throughout their online journey. As the product catalog grew, visitors struggled to find accurate comparisons or receive tailored recommendations without smart assistance – resulting in drop-offs and missed revenue opportunities.
