 8

We all know that world is changing faster than we can think. There are lots of new technologies which are emerging and used in daily life. This is new era where things are becoming smarter. 

Einstein chatbot is one of them, before configuring the Einstein chatbot, the first question which comes in our mind is,

What’s the chatbot?

Chatbot is an automated computer program that holds a conversation with a person via written communications, with the aim of helping that person achieve a desired result. This is very complex definition of chatbot. In simple words, Chatbot is a technology in which a person can chat with computer instead of human, conversation looks like a human chat that can help you to achieve your aim.

Another question arises here, why we need chatbots?

Here are few reasons we need chatbots

1. 24/7 Availability

    Chatbots are never going to leave your office. They are available 24/7 to interact with your customers.

2. Immediate Response

    Chatbot response time is very fast. They can immediately reply to the questions and provide solutions for their queries, which provide higher customer satisfaction.

     3.    Scalability

     A customer care executive can talk with one person at a time. So, if we have lots of customers than we need more executives, which means more money.

Chatbot can chat with multiple customers at the same time.

It comes with scalability feature, so you can scale your customer service at any level you want.

    4.    Cost Effective

     Instead of increasing your customer care staff, you can save lot of money by using chatbots.

The infrastructure that your bot needs to work is already there, and it’sFREE thanks to messenger services likeFacebook, Einstein Chatbot.

    5.    People prefer chat instead of call

   In today’s world, people are more addicted to the messenger service instead of calling, reason behind this it helps them to do multi-tasking at the same time.

Now we are familiar with chatbots and why we need them.

Einstein Chatbot

In market several bots are available like Microsoft Bot Platform, Amazon Lex, Google Dialogflow, Alibaba Intelligent Service Robot, and many more.

Einstein Chatbot is different from those bots, they are fully integrated with salesforce platform. They can access the salesforce data and can transfer conversation to the real live agent without any integration.

Chatbots can configured using wizard-based interface instead of code. It also has functionality to invoke Apex methods when we need them.

Wizard

Step 3. Einstein AI. Key Management and Permission set

After completing 2 steps, behind the scenes a new account is established on Einstein Platform Services. This is required because Einstein Bots needs to call into the Einstein Platform Services for NLP-related tasks. You will receive an email shortly after enabling Einstein Bots to let you know the account has been created.
