Infobip has introduced SMS and WhatsApp messaging for Adobe Commerce clients. This will enable them to connect with customers over their preferred channels at key points of the purchase journey.
The integration is part of Infobip’s efforts as an Accelerate Partner in the Adobe Exchange Partner Program to bring valuable capabilities to the marketplace. The addition of these popular channels will enable Adobe Commerce merchants to offer their customers truly connected digital experiences and analytics over popular, convenient, and trusted channels, as well as benefit from the scale of Infobip’s 700+ direct carrier relationships.
The new Infobip SMS and WhatsApp Notification adds value by allowing sellers to automatically send contextual alerts in real-time, relating to things like stock levels, personalized special offers, and order tracking for more efficient customer service, leading to a better customer experience and increased customer loyalty. The channels can also be used to communicate abandoned carts and stock replenishment that are proven to help boost conversion for retailers. The channel extensions can be downloaded quickly and easily through an Infobip account.
“E-commerce has experienced unmatched growth over the last couple of years as consumers shifted shopping habits online. For merchants to compete and win in the digital economy, they will need to deliver personalized experiences to the right customer on the right channel at the right moment,“ said Tory Brunker, Senior Director of Product Marketing at Adobe Commerce.
“There has been a drastic change in consumer behavior since the start of 2020 that includes a greater need for convenience-based shopping and wider acceptance of different communications channels. We’re thrilled to expand our stack of cloud-based communication solutions that will help clients in the Adobe marketplace offer differentiated experience to their customers in what is a fiercely competitive trading environment,“ added Veselin Vukovic, Vice President for Strategic Partnerships at Infobip.
Layering Infobip’s CPaaS cloud technology onto Adobe Commerce will help transform the customer engagement side of organizations to make them more productive, profitable, and people-oriented. “With this new SMS and WhatsApp Notifications integration with Adobe Commerce, in addition to our current SMS connection with Adobe Campaign, we will continue to build on our existing Adobe relationship and look forward to bringing more value through future innovation and collaboration,“ concluded Vukovic.
AgentOS is Infobip’s response to a phase in which agents are becoming an important tool for process automation and customer communication. Krešo Žmak says the market is still at an early stage, but clients are moving away from AI for the sake of innovation and towards measurable results. The next challenge will be controlling costs, user experience, and the nondeterministic nature of agentic systems.
Telecom operators approach AI from two directions: as providers of infrastructure for the digital transformation of other industries and as organisations embedding AI into their own processes. A1 Hrvatska has moved from prototypes to concrete products, from customer support to sovereign European cloud services. Daniel Šimić says workforce profiles are also changing, with fast learning, customer understanding and adaptability becoming more important.
Burra was created as a platform for consolidating IT services companies in Southeast Europe, with a commercial focus on Western Europe and the United States. Its first members, Devōt, Tacta and CoreLine, continue to run their existing businesses while integration is planned gradually, primarily through new projects. Sven Marušić says the aim is not to turn founders into corporate employees, but to build a larger organisation in which they remain shareholders and drivers of growth.
