Enriched with Communication APIs capabilities, Toku Contact Centre enables businesses in APAC to build better customer experiences by creating an omnichannel customer journey adapted to suit their business needs.

SINGAPORE, July 5, 2022 /PRNewswire/ — Toku, Asia Pacific’s dedicated cloud communications company, today announced the launch of its contact centre platform. The platform provides a robust and scalable omnichannel cloud-based solution that helps businesses operating in Asia Pacific (APAC) digitalise, automate, and scale their contact centre operations so that they can build better and seamless customer experiences. 

In today’s digital-first environment, customers have a new set of expectations when interacting with brands online.

In a new survey among 1,000 Singapore consumers, findings have shown that:

• 82% of Singapore consumers do not want to engage with more than two touchpoints for any given enquiry or communication, and
• More than 65% of Singapore consumers expect companies to keep track of their details and all previous interactions to facilitate communications

This means that companies are challenged to get a deeper understanding of customer journey touchpoints to drive better customer satisfaction levels, boost customer loyalty, and provide a better customer experience.

Toku Contact Centre’s features

Toku Contact Centre is comprised of a cloud-based communication platform with Communication APIs enhancements that give agents the flexibility to deliver a seamless customer experience across multiple channels. On top of that, they have access to customer insights and can operate securely from anywhere, so they can support customers efficiently and effectively. In terms of connectivity, Toku’s clients also have access to PSTN (Public Switch Telephone Network) replacement in 17 APAC countries, and access to virtual numbers in more than 120 locations worldwide.

With a team of technology experts based in Toku’s offices across APAC, Toku has the in-house innovation, experience, technology capabilities, and local market knowledge, to help companies based in the region to navigate the highly fragmented market.

As such, Toku Contact Centre is ideal for companies that have or are looking to expand operations in multiple APAC markets, without worrying about voice quality, latency, or scalability.
