Intermedia Elevate Use Case
3 Ways Cloud Communications Can Benefit Credit Unions
Whether in person or through digital channels, consumers today expect speed and convenience in all their interactions. This has implications not just for your credit union’s web presence and mobile app capabilities, but also for communications in general. Members want proactive text or email messages about monthly statements, balances, and mortgage payments. And they want great service and convenient access, which means quick issue resolution, multiple communication
channels, and a personalized experience – every time.
Intermedia Unite improves member interactions for credit unions of all sizes. With customizable call
flows and exceptional QA features to help ensure more-efficient interactions, our solution combines voice, chat, video, and email into a single omni-channel experience. You get real-time member insights and deep historical reporting to improve interactions. And dynamic notifications extend reach while respecting audience preference.
Engage on any channel
Contact members in their preferred channels, using voice, SMS, and email notifications.
Interactive voice response
Give members self-service access to handle routine tasks (e.g., checking an account balance or paying a bill) without engaging with a live agent.
Fast, informed interactions
Equip service agents with real-time member insights to speed issue resolution. Plus, give them deep historical context to improve future touchpoints.
Maximize Employee Productivity
You and your employees need to be able to work flexibly no matter where you are. And your members should experience seamless, consistent communications, which means maintaining the thread of conversations over time as employees continue across channels from a home office to the workplace.
Intermedia Unite seamlessly integrates all your communications tools – desktop phones, mobile devices, and computers – into one manageable solution that flexibly accommodates employee needs and locations while ensuring a consistent and business-centric member experience.
Consistency and privacy
Members will see your business phone number only, whether employees are connecting from their laptops, mobile phones, office phones, or contact centers.
Increased productivity
Video conferencing participants can join meetings from their desktops or mobile devices, wherever they are.
Improved responsiveness
Chat messages automatically sync across mobile and desktop apps, so teams can stay connected and access conversations from any location.
From Dodd-Frank to SOC2, credit unions must regularly conduct audits of processes, systems, and files to ensure compliance with industry regulations and manage risk. For instance, the Financial Privacy Rule requires credit unions to provide each member with a privacy notice, explaining where data is shared, how it is used, and how it is protected – both at the beginning of the member relationship and annually thereafter. Managing risk is equally challenging, as data breaches and cyberattacks increase and credit unions support redundant storage, uptime SLA, configurable retention policies, data encryption, and offline data access.
Intermedia’s integrated cloud communications platform comes complete with the necessary security and privacy controls to address a wide range of financial industry regulations. It combines a phone system with desktop and mobile apps, video conferencing, team chat, and business SMS, as well as file collaboration and backup capabilities. Everything you need to keep your data, communications, and meetings secure and compliant is included and available to your team, whether they’re in the office or on the road – with full support for mobile devices.
Secure data
Your files and voicemails are encrypted at rest and in transit. Multiple backup copies ensure you never need to worry about lost files.
