Service Intelligence is a treasure trove of customer data in Salesforce's Service Cloud.
This data can be a powerful tool for enhancing your customer service operations, and Salesforce knows it. That's why the latest release introduces two vital standard CRM Analytics dashboards ‘Case Dashboards’ and ‘Omni-Channel Dashboards’.
Case Dashboards: This is your one-stop shop to gauge the pulse of your customer service team. From here, you can keep tabs on high-level metrics like the number of escalated cases, the average time it takes to close them, and customer satisfaction scores across different channels.

The features are designed to make data work for us. They help aggregate insights across your customer service channels, thereby enabling you to make more informed decisions. And yes, all of this comes with the added ability to embed these insights directly into the workflow, ensuring that data-driven decision-making is as seamless as it gets.
