Migrating a support team from the current CRM to Service Cloud, recommending and implementing a Project Management tool, migrating historical data, reviewing processes, evaluating the current community against legacy portal users, and developing necessary functionalities.
The project involved a multifaceted challenge, necessitating a meticulous approach to various tasks. The primary objectives included analyzing the transition process from the current operational state to the desired future state, evaluating the efficacy of existing CRM functionalities versus those of Service Cloud, scrutinizing the process of migrating the Current Customer Care Community in conjunction with the Customer portal used by the Support group. Notably, historical cases served as the cornerstone of "knowledge," which prompted the exploration of a strategy for converting these cases. In contrast to the existing Community's usage, most support inquiries were channeled through the customer portal, supplemented by phone calls and emails. While the incumbent CRM served as a project management tool, there was a clear impetus to explore more suitable alternatives in this domain.Key Focus Areas:
The solution devised was comprehensive, aiming to address the intricate challenges posed by the project.
