Hypergrowth UK auto insurance firm selects eGain for knowledge-powered customer engagement

Sunnyvale, CA (October 26, 2021): eGain Corporation (NASDAQ: EGAN), a leading cloud platform provider for customer engagement automation, today announced that one of UK’s fastest growing motor insurers has selected eGain as their new platform for digital transformation of customer engagement.

According to Forrester, “UK insurers are delivering mediocre, undifferentiated experiences — so much so that 45% of UK online adults agree that all insurance companies are basically the same.”* This presents an opportunity for forward-looking insurance carriers to gain market share by delivering stand-out customer experiences.

When their legacy solution failed to improve omnichannel service, the motor insurance company selected eGain. The client will deploy eGain’s virtual assistant for online customer service and digital deflection from the IVR. Their agents will use eGain’s modern desktop to handle omnichannel queries in a consistent way across messaging, chat, and email. All conversations will leverage the eGain Knowledge Hub™ for consistent answers, process guidance and compliance.

“Knowledge is often the missing ingredient in the digital transformation of customer engagement,” said Ashu Roy, eGain CEO. “We look forward to helping this innovative client deliver wow customer experiences using knowledge and AI.”

Welcome

The vision behind everything in Futurum’s Custom Research practice is this: research should show you what is happening, what comes next, and what to do about it. It should be personal to each audience, easy for people to grasp, and structured so LLMs can reason over it accurately. And it should be fast and turnkey; you want answers now, not another project to carry for quarters.

Whether you are defining business, channel, or go-to-market strategy; evaluating vendors or justifying ROI; or commissioning research to fill an emerging market need, we have your back, with a program that answers your questions with the objectivity and credibility to drive real decisions.

To do it, we bring unmatched data to bear: Futurum research, surveys, and market projections; validated market feeds; ETR’s 15 years of insight from 10,000 technology decision-makers; G2’s buyer and user data; and what our analysts hear every day. Add leading primary collection, from AI-moderated voice interviews to surveys and analyst-led interviews, all turnkey, and every project comes out credible, nuanced, and actionable.

And we don’t just drop the results in your lap. For internal work, we provide analyst-led sessions, interactive dashboards, and a range of formats. For market-facing work, Futurum delivers turnkey activation and amplification that actually gets seen, by people and by LLMs, through our media and share of voice. This is research that moves decisions and markets.

We will meet you wherever you are, from a fast-turn brief to a multi-year program, and shape the work to your goals, timeline, and budget. The right program for your moment.

If any of this is useful, I would love to talk.
