Customer Service Expectations from Different Generations

Remember the days where customer support meant mere phone calls, messages, or long emails? Being in this 21st century amidst all intelligent technologies, it is difficult to fathom a world devoid of technology that brings everything at your fingertips, especially for millennials. 

Therefore, a common challenge that customer support sectors can face today is the generational differences while providing support. With intelligent software like Kapture CRM customer support is seamless and efficient today. But does it suit all the generations? 

A good customer service strategy is not a one-size-fits-all approach anymore. To stay tight in the competition brands must be able to provide personalized customer experience and understand the generational differences, each of their needs, demands, and limitations. 

Kapture CRM provides customized support for all generations including Baby boomers, Generation X, Millennials, and Generation Z. We understand that customer service expectations are different from generation to generation and there are different comfort levels for different people. Therefore, we provide customer support across multiple channels keeping this in mind.

Technology: Millennials Vs Baby Boomers

Baby boomers are a generation that dates back to the years following World War II. People of 50-60 age group are included in this category. While Millenials are the tech-savvy young generation, who grew up with the technology. 

There is a common misconception about the older generation and their experience when it comes to technology. However, according to Pew Research Institute, “ 67 percent own a smartphone and 57 percent use social media”. 

However, Kapture is an efficient helpdesk ticketing system that provides customized support to everyone based on their needs and demands. We include Boomers to millennials in our omnichannel design. Providing seamless and user-friendly experience via live chat, mobile app, social media, or calls.
