Chatbots vs. Assistants virtuels : une vue d'ensemble

Chatbots vs. Assistants virtuels : une vue d'ensemble



Chatbots et assistants virtuels - ces deux formes d'IA transforment la façon dont nous interagissons avec la technologie. Mais il est facile de s'y perdre, car ces deux formes d'IA sont en plein essor.
Comment se différencie un chatbot d'un assistant virtuel ?

Définition du "chatbot"

Les chatbots sont généralement conçus pour effectuer des tâches spécifiques telles que répondre à des questions fréquemment posées (FAQ), fournir une assistance client ou traiter des commandes.

Définition d' "assistant virtuel"

Les assistants virtuels, en revanche, sont plus polyvalents. Ils agissent comme des assistants personnels capables de gérer des emplois du temps, de programmer des rappels, de contrôler des appareils intelligents et même de tenir des conversations.

Quelles sont les principales différences entre les chatbots et les assistants virtuels ?

  • Intelligence

Chatbots - Ils s'appuient sur des réponses scénarisées ou sur des arbres de décision simples.
Assistants virtuels - Ils utilisent un traitement du langage naturel (NLP) avancé pour comprendre les demandes complexes et y répondre en conséquence.

  • Fonctionnalité

Chatbots - Ils se consacrent à des tâches spécifiques, souvent en fournissant des informations ou en effectuant des transactions simples. Ils sont parfaits pour répondre aux FAQ, collecter des données ou fournir une assistance client de base.
Assistants virtuels - Ils offrent un plus large éventail de capacités, se comportant comme un assistant personnel. Ils peuvent répondre à des questions, effectuer des tâches (comme régler des alarmes ou passer des appels) et même contrôler des appareils intelligents.

  • Interface utilisateur

Chatbots - Ils utilisent généralement une interface basée sur le chat dans laquelle vous tapez des questions ou choisissez parmi un menu d'options.
Assistants virtuels - Ils peuvent utiliser le chat textuel ou les commandes vocales, ce qui permet une conversation plus naturelle.

Lequel choisir ? Assistant virtuel IA ou chatbot ?

Il est essentiel de comprendre les différences, voici quelques éléments clés à prendre en compte

  • Pour un simple support client ou une recherche d'informations de base, un chatbot peut être une excellente solution, avec une disponibilité 24/7 et un traitement efficace des tâches répétitives. Exemples : ChatGPT, Microsoft Copilot, Reve Chat, Jasper, Zoho SalesIQ, Drift, etc.
  • Si vous recherchez une solution plus complète, un assistant virtuel est la meilleure solution, car il offre un plus large éventail de fonctionnalités et une expérience utilisateur plus naturelle. Exemples : Apple Siri, Amazon Alexa, Google Assistant, Microsoft Cortana, Zoho Zia.

Zia : Assistant virtuel de Zoho

Zoho offre un ensemble d'outils pour les entreprises, et Zia est particulièrement doué pour s'intégrer à eux.
Prenons un exemple, Zia analyse les interactions avec vos clients, qu'il s'agisse d'e-mails, d'appels ou de visites sur le site web. Sur la base de ces informations, elle suggère le moment optimal pour joindre chaque client, augmentant ainsi vos possibilités d'établir une connexion du premier coup. Ce n'est qu'un exemple de la façon dont Zia exploite les données de Zoho pour vous rendre plus efficace.
Zia améliore également les relations clients. Lorsque des utilisateurs visitent votre site Web, Zia analyse les ventes précédentes et le comportement des clients. À partir de ces données, elle recommande des produits supplémentaires, ce qui permet aux clients de trouver plus facilement ceux dont ils ont besoin.
Zoho accorde une grande importance à la protection de la vie privée des utilisateurs, et cela s'applique aussi à Zia, qui offre de solides fonctions de sécurité des données. Il s'agit d'un élément crucial pour la gestion d'informations commerciales sensibles.
