Using public social feeds or direct messaging, they expect brands to turn these inquiries for service, support and information into meaningful experiences. With Radarr Technologies capabilities, Genesys will help organisations meet customers on the social channels of their choice so they can engage with them as naturally as they do with family and friends through rich social media-based experiences that are easy, contextual and personalised.<\/p>\n<p>Following the acquisition, which is expected to close in the first quarter of fiscal year 2025i, Genesys will use Radarr Technologies social media insights as a critical source for its 360-degree customer view fueling Genesys AI. Genesys will be able to further connect attitudinal, sentiment and interaction data from across the CX continuum and provide the industry\u2019s most comprehensive depth of consumer engagement touchpoints. Organisations using Radarr Technologies capabilities on Genesys Cloud will be freed from the silos and limitations that prevent them from delivering personalised experiences wherever their customers are by harnessing new insights and capabilities to create loyalty and gain a competitive edge.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cAs consumers increasingly turn to social media platforms to connect with brands for support, these channels become a crucial and largely untapped opportunity for organisations to engage with customers and glean valuable business insights,\u201d said Tony Bates, Genesys CEO and chairman. \u201cOnce the capabilities of Radarr Technologies are integrated into Genesys Cloud, Genesys can accelerate its transformation of the CX industry by helping organisations further connect every touchpoint into the end-to-end customer experience.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>To manage their social media presence, most organisations today rely on point solutions that are often disconnected from other customer engagement systems and departments. This can leave them struggling to identify issues, analyse insights and act on what matters most, resulting in fractured customer experiences and missed opportunities to drive business results. Through the integration of Radarr Technologies, Genesys Cloud customers will gain direct access to new conversation streams from public social media posts across multiple platforms, including Apple App Store, Facebook, Instagram, X, YouTube, Google Play, Google My Business and more. When combined with the Genesys Cloud platform\u2019s voice and digital offerings, including its leading\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.genesys.com\/capabilities\/social-media-customer-service\">private social media messaging solutions,<\/a>\u00a0organisations will have unmatched capabilities to listen to their customers on these channels and turn these inquiries into loyalty-building conversations.<\/p>\n<p>\u200bUsing the response engine capabilities of Radarr Technologies with Genesys Cloud, the combined solutions will empower agents by giving them holistic customer journey context and tools that enable them to connect with customers on their preferred social channels, whether responding to inquiries on public feeds or direct messaging. Additionally, the differentiated AI-powered Multilingual Sentiment Models within the Radarr Technologies solution will further\u202fstrengthen the natural language processing (NLP) of the Genesys Cloud platform. This will expand organisations\u2019 ability to detect\u202fregional slang and colloquialisms across more than 100 languages, including the top 10\u202fspoken worldwide and more than 40 Asian languages and dialects. This allows organisations to better understand\u202fcustomer sentiment\u00a0for enhanced ability to deliver personalized experiences at scale.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cOrganisations have struggled to tap into the potential that social media can play in delivering differentiated customer experiences \u2014 Genesys is now in a better position to change that,\u201d said Sheila McGee-Smith, president, McGee-Smith Analytics. \u201cConnecting these public feeds with the orchestration of the customer journey will provide companies not only a more holistic understanding of consumer behavior and sentiment, but the tools to take action through more enhanced personalization and engagement. In adding Radarr Technologies capabilities to Genesys Cloud, the company recognizes the rising importance global enterprises are placing on social interaction management and analytics to achieve a complete unification of the customer experience.\u201d<\/p>\n<p><strong>About Genesys\u202f\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Genesys empowers more than 7,500 organisations in over 100 countries to improve loyalty and business outcomes by creating the best experiences for customers and employees.
