“Much depends on recruitment and training of employees, but modern tools are like a third hand for the operator.”

How e-commerce worked unto Implementation of ConnectiveOne

Until the fall of 2024, e-commerce support was carried out by an external outsourcing contact center with its tools. Customer appeals were recorded through the helpdesk, and the only real point of contact was the 0800 hotline.

“The main point of communication remained the 0800 telephone line — this is clearly not enough for the modern market.
Imagine: In the store, the customer can always come in and get advice, and the online customer for a long time had a limited choice — just the phone.”

Why VARUS created own support team?

As the number of orders grew, so did the flow of appeals, and outsourcing lost its economic feasibility and did not provide the necessary flexibility. The ROI of the own contact center project became more profitable than the further expansion of outsourcing, and the company made a strategic decision to launch its own e-commerce team.

Challenges

After creating its own contact center, the VARUS command saw: it is impossible to organize a quality service without a modern AI platform. Operators were forced to work through separate interfaces — for calls, email and separately for calls through the site or chat. This made the maintenance process itself difficult and staff training and delayed the speed of response.

“It was critically important to get a centralized platform that connects all channels and allows you to manage the service processes qualitatively. Introducing ConnectiveOne for e-commerce was a logical step, as other departments were already actively involved in the work on the platform.”

What the transformation process looked like

1

Omnichannel ecosystem

Operators received a “single window” for working with all channels, and customers — the opportunity to contact through any convenient way.

2

AI Agent in Support

In just 1 month, an AI agent was deployed to handle standard, repetitive questions.

3

Low-code as a guarantee of speed

The VARUS team independently configures and adapts the service scenarios.

Tips

“I recommend that other businesses look for solutions for their Real problems and not just to figure out which product is 'fashionable'. Choose a tool that adapts to the business, and does not force you to change processes for yourself. I can say for sure about the flexibility of ConnectiveOne — we felt it from the first weeks of work and with the example of an AI agent.”
