For the 14th consecutive year, Salesforce Service Cloud has been named a leader in the 2023 Gartner Magic Quadrant for CRM Customer Engagement Center report.
Why it matters: Gartner defines CRM Customer Engagement Center (CEC) as “software applications used to provide customer service and support by engaging intelligently — both proactively and reactively — with customers by answering questions, solving problems, and giving advice.”
- Developed for service teams and managers, Service Cloud allows organizations to deliver personalized customer service at scale with AI-powered insights, recommendations, and productivity tools.
Driving the news: The Gartner Magic Quadrant™ uses a two-dimensional matrix to evaluate CRM CEC companies based on their Completeness of Vision and Ability to Execute considering factors such as product/service, overall viability, execution/pricing, market responsiveness and track record, and customer experience.
- Gartner recognized Salesforce’s Service Cloud as a Leader in both its vision and ability to execute.
The Salesforce perspective: “We’re honored to be recognized as a Customer Engagement Center Leader for the 14th consecutive year,” said Ryan Nichols, General Manager of Service Cloud at Salesforce. “Service Cloud continues to redefine the role of AI in customer service, from self-service bots to contact center agents to field technicians. Our AI-powered innovations are reshaping the service industry, ushering in a new era of extraordinary customer experiences.”
