In 2020, we published our predictions about what CIOs can expect from their service desks over the next five years. We predicted that service desk contact numbers would continue to decrease, and we’d see a gradual drop in first-level resolution (FLR), along with a steady rise in customer satisfaction. Our predictions came true. What’s driving the change? Automation opportunities at the Service Desk.
We teamed up with our partner, Uipath , to spark up some conversation on 2 LinkedIn Events. Get caught up on what we talked about below.
1. Impact of automation on the Service Desk and the customer experience
Faster resolution. Reduced ticket cost. Happier customers. Focus on higher-value activities.
