Salesforce Service Cloud

Salesforce Service Cloud is the world's #1 AI CRM for service, where humans with AI agents drive customer success together. Service Cloud enables seamless collaboration between AI agents and humans, for every type of service, on any channel, and across any industry to deliver effortless experiences from first contact to final resolution. With autonomous agents, you can transform low-touch, high-volume interactions into no-touch experiences, seamlessly handing them off to your human agents only when needed for high-touch more complex interactions.

Freshdesk

Freshdesk (a product of Freshworks Inc.) helps customer service teams move from their first AI agent to AI-powered customer service, without a drawn-out transformation program. Freshdesk unifies channels, conversations, AI, and customer context into one place, so agents always have the full picture before responding. Ready-to-use AI agents understand intent, take action, and resolve requests across channels, not just route them. AI Copilot helps every agent work faster and with more confidence, and AI Insights turns service data into decisions instead of dashboards.
