Makesy improves customer service self-service and response times with Kustomer

The problem

Makesy's customer service team was hampered by a disorganized previous CRM (Gorgias) with no visibility into agent availability, requiring agents to manually select messages, manually send bulk emails, and lacking the brand-voice customization and tagging clarity the team needed.

First attempt

Gorgias, Makesy's previous CRM, had a confusing tagging system that made it impossible to accurately determine why customers were reaching out, and offered no insight into agent availability or scheduling.
