End-Use Insights
Large enterprises are expected to remain the largest end-use segment of the intelligent virtual assistant market by 2020. They stand to benefit to a great extent through the deployment of virtual assistants, since they are capable of handling a considerable percentage of customer interactions. Since they also help improve the enterprise’s mobile customer service experience, a growing number of large enterprises have adopted intelligent virtual assistant technology to deliver critical cost savings and new revenue opportunities. An increasing number of enterprises across industry verticals have adopted virtual agent technology to fuel revenue. However, the virtual assistant needs to be capable of replicating the services presently available through conventional or traditional self-service options. Verticals including banking and financial services, travel, and online retail have exhibited higher return on investment (ROI) through intelligent virtual assistant implementation. This is primarily because of higher penetration, as well as early incorporation of social and mobile channels. Industry areas with high customer contact have been among early adopters of virtual agent incorporation.
