Have you ever wanted a virtual assistant to support the Service Desk? Blue BI has developed Andy, the chatbot that can support your team!
Who is Andy?
Andy is the “colleague” who always has the right answer at the right time.
Utopia? Absolutely not.
Blue BI has created a “Chatbot Help Desk” that supports your Help Desk department in the management of company tickets, providing answers or documentation internally and allowing colleagues to dedicate themselves to the execution of value-added tasks.
With Andy opens a new frontier in the management and availability of business knowledge base, allowing the resolution of user problems in an efficient, specific and smart way.
Thanks to its potential, it is a central hub for business support requests and can serve as the first touchpoint for answering questions. In addition, in case of very complex requests, it manages to redirect them to the correct area of expertise.
The result is a clear reduction in the resolution time of requests and issues, which translates into an increase in the time available for colleagues to manage more valuable activities.
We are therefore talking about a skillet that speeds up daily activities, increasing productivity within the company and reducing low value added activities.
Which pain allows you to manage our chatbot?
In particular, Andy supports the ICT Manager of each company by overcoming different problems that are encountered daily:
- Usually, the Help Desk department has high costs and the budget dedicated to the latter occupies at least 60% of the resources of the area of competence of the ICT Manager
- Usually the Help Desk Teams are fragmented and do not dialogue well with each other
- Ticket resolution time is long because the resolution priority is based on resource availability
- Several users make requests that could be resolved by reading company documentation
- Lack of Help Desk performance monitoring
