The solution

Getting started with Ultimate

When the Covid-19 pandemic hit, Aurinkomatkat was forced to downsize their support team. When travel started ramping up again, they were facing a high volume of support inquiries and their team was feeling overwhelmed. Aurinkomatkat found it was a very slow process to get human agents fully trained. And with more and more customers turning to live chat, a virtual agent seemed like the perfect solution.

"Chat conversations also lead to a sale much more often than calls because most people are already at least thinking of buying a trip. So the virtual agent has been working very well for us."
