- Problem context: Vacation Innovations had several issues and use-cases that prompted them to look for a solution.
“ OmniChannel didn't work for us and having Management do the assignment was cumbersome. ”Diana Maali Vacation Innovations
Like many Salesforce customers they first tried using OmniChannel routing. However OmniChannel's service-oriented approach didn't quite work for them as it relied too much upon the agents' login status. Diana said: "OmniChannel did not work for all agents as it required them to be available and it was hard to track how many records each person was getting and if an agent did not login or forgot to login, records were not being distributed".
Manual assignment of leads happens in different ways across Salesforce orgs, and Diana explained how they were doing it at Vacation Innovations; "We had teams working off of list views and having their management reassign records as they came into different queues. This was cumbersome". Also, they wanted agents to work different campaigns which meant they needed a way to evenly distribute a certain number of records across all agents for any given campaign.
Within two weeks of discovering Super Round Robin as a possible solution, Diana had it set up to automate routing and assignment for their Lead, Opportunity and Contact objects.
Extending SRR to integrate with High Velocity Sales
Working with our customers is often about solving their problems as efficiently as possible. At Vacation Innovations they use High Velocity Sales and immediately after assignment they need to add the lead to a specific Sales Cadence. Diana's developers were having a long running challenge of being able to get their high number of leads quickly added to Sales Cadences whilst staying within the strict Salesforce governor limits.
“ My developers were using Apex triggers to assign a record to a Sales Cadence after it had been assigned via SRR. Ed suggested making a change in SRR where we can assign a Sales Cadence from the match group. This allows us to disable any jobs that are running so we can free up system resources and be able to get leads added to HVS more quickly. This is a game changer for us! ”Diana Maali Vacation Innovations
Quick setup and "amazing" customer support
From time to time everybody needs a bit of assistance or help to think something through. When Diana or anyone else at Vacation Innovations needs a helping hand the team at Super Round Robin are on the case - always looking for the most efficient solution to the next challenge. Often SRR will have the tool-set to do it out-of-the-box and other times we integrate with Flow to get more sophisticated things done. Whatever the solution, we help get our customers there as fast as possible.
“Customer Support has been pretty amazing compared to other companies out there. We had assistance in our initial setup as well as throughout the entirety of us using SRR. They have been been super helpful and is always extremely timely in their replies. I also enjoy brainstorming on ways we can better utilize the product to help us become more efficient. I appreciate them being willing to make updates to the system periodically to introduce new features that are always helpful!”
