Digitizing customer relations, a necessary step but not an end in itself
In recent years, customer experience (CX) and IT leaders have fast-tracked the deployment of digital solutions to :
- Streamline journeys
- Reduce pressure on contact centers
- Cut operational costs
The result ? Online booking, smart forms, conversational bots, embedded video meetings… Clients have gained autonomy.But when not properly framed, too much autonomy can lead to frustration.
“ Where we used to manage everything with manual Excel files, everything is now centralized and automated. We’ve gained in speed and efficiency. ” - Sabine Metayer, Head of Customer Service Centers, AG2R La Mondiale

This highlights one thing: digital tools only create value when they serve people both clients and teams.
Deliver a Seamless Experience That Still Feels Human
So the question is no longer " Should we digitalize our customer interactions ? "
Instead, it's : " How can we digitize without losing the human essence? "
It starts with :
- Smart channel orchestration: give customers the choice—phone, video, in-person, or online appointments
- A consistent and frictionless journey from booking to advisor interaction
- Tools designed for real-world operations: multi-location, multi-user, real-time availability, full IT integration…
This is exactly what we deployed with a leading insurance provider.By digitalizing video appointment scheduling, they saw :
- +20% more qualified appointments
- A significantly improved customer journey
- Enhanced advisor skills, refocused on high-value interactions—without increasing headcount
Delegate what truly simplifies daily operations to digital
Here’s another example : a major local authority integrated our solution into its citizen services and reduced its no-show rate by 98% in under a year. Yes—98%.
That level of impact doesn’t come from a basic scheduling tool, but from fine-tuned journey optimization :
- Automated email and SMS reminders
- Availability-based time slot adaptation
- Internal alerts to align staffing resources
That’s where technology plays its full role: removing friction, optimizing processes, and letting humans focus on what matters most—real value creation.
Build a more cohesive and connected customer relationship
We’ve entered a new era where what matters is not the number of digital channels, but how well they’re orchestrated—and how much real relationship they allow.
- IT departments know: without seamless IT integration, there's no 360° customer view
- Digital teams experience it daily: without unified platforms, there’s no agility
- Customer experience teams demand it: without personalization, there’s no engagement
That’s why we offer a sovereign, secure, and comprehensive solution, ISO 27001-certified and hosted entirely in France or Europe.
A reliable environment to manage calendars, scheduling flows, notifications, analytics… and above all, the experience itself.
A major banking and insurance group proves the point:
With hundreds of thousands of appointments managed annually across a vast network of branches and staff, they’re a benchmark for how a well-executed digital strategy can transform customer relations.
