“Customer engagement should not stop with just marketing, sales and support. Today, every business needs to invest in proactively managing customers. The addition of the Natero Customer Success Suite enables businesses to understand their customers better, o**** personalized and differentiated service and turn them into passionate advocates and customers for life,” said Girish Mathrubootham, Freshworks founder and CEO. “The acquisition extends our ‘customer-for-life’ vision to all teams, including account and customer success managers who require up-to-date customer usage and health data to proactively engage those accounts at risk of churn or ready to buy more.”

With 56% of global consumers indicating that they’d switch brands after just one bad service experience, businesses must engage customers in real time and at scale to keep satisfaction high and churn low, according to Freshworks’ New Rules of Customer Engagement report.

“Today more than ever, businesses are living and dying by their ability to provide superior customer service. Yet, AI and machine learning aren’t magic pills, taken by themselves. Magic occurs when silos are eliminated so that predictive capabilities can be gained across the organization. Predictive AI can then increase customer engagement and improve the experience at every customer touchpoint,” said Esteban Kolsky, principal of ThinkJar and a leading CRM analyst.
