IntelePeer, a leading AI-powered Communications Automation Platform provider, introduces SmartCommunicator for Microsoft Teams bringing customer-specific AI and automation to front office and other enterprise workers communicating and collaborating within the Teams environment. A new module available with the company’s SmartOffice and SmartWorker solutions, SmartCommunicator delivers IntelePeer’s award-winning platform to Teams users and allows for intelligent presence and skill-based routing for any incoming customer interaction, including text, email, and voice communications using individual or shared inboxes. SmartCommunicator is available through the Microsoft Teams Marketplace.

“Approximately 40% of the workforce is either remote or hybrid creating immense challenges for today’s businesses especially when it comes to information and knowledge sharing,” commented IntelePeer CEO, Frank Fawzi. “SmartCommunicator automates communications among employees and customers while capturing and acting upon time-sensitive customer insights across enterprise, retail, and remote locations. With real-time analytics, we’re bringing contact center capabilities to business users while giving central visibility and tracking into each customer interaction. SmartCommunicator is another element to deliver on IntelePeer’s long-term vision of reinventing the contact center through customer self-service automation while giving high value interactions direct access to experts within the business.”

With a remote workforce, employees often use their personal cell phones to conduct business which eliminates the ability to capture and trace interactions. With SmartCommunicator companies retain control and visibility of all communications while ensuring corporate compliance at the highest level. The solution delivers a seamless, automated experience and provides a centralized place for gathering information from disparate business systems, integrating with Outlook, CRM, enterprise and vertical SaaS applications. This combination streamlines processes, eliminates the need to navigate between multiple platforms, break down data silos and enhances the efficiency and effectiveness of outreach efforts and inbound customer inquiries. Other features include:

• Full access to all AI and automation capabilities of the IntelePeer platform.
• Automated outbound interactions that can identify and handle upsell, cross sell opportunities, and appointment setting providing extra value with each interaction.
