Team Overview
Service Cloud is the world's number one customer service application and a rapidly growing $7B business. Our product management team leads the development and growth of the product areas within our award winning customer service portfolio, across Customer Service, Contact Center, and Field Service applications. Our team leads all aspects of product development including research, vision, competitive positioning, roadmap, and delivery.
Product Overview
Salesforce announced _Service Cloud Voice_ in November 2019 to bring phone support into the most complete and connected service platform as a digital channel. Service Cloud Voice allows customers to quickly get up and running with a support number, build an IVR and configure call routing, surface calls in an omnichannel agent workspace, capture realtime call transcripts, arm agents with AI-powered recommendations, workflow automation & call wrap up, and allow supervisors to monitor calls, coach agents, and improve phone support operations. Service Cloud Voice is available out of the box powered by Amazon Connect, or is available to use with an expanding ecosystem of CCaaS providers. Service Cloud Voice is an especially strategic product for Salesforce as we capture the opportunity to transform the legacy Contact Center into a digital, intelligent Customer Engagement Center.
