The main objective of this research service was to investigate the current and future integration of customer interactions in the North American contact centers. Currently, one-third of the contact centers have been fully integrated to deliver seamless and consistent customer experiences across channels. By 2016, 54% expect to be fully integrated. Additionally, the percentage of automated customer interactions is expected to grow from 48% in 2014 to 64% by 2016. The use of multiple capabilities with social media customer contact strategies is expected to increase, with the largest increases expected for fully integrated with other contact channels and dedicated customer support forum/community.
