Furthermore, marketing and sales teams are frequently under pressure to increase sales and enhance the customer experience.

Chatbots assist clients without interfering with regular business hours. Furthermore, bots are never overworked because they can effortlessly handle a large volume of requests and process them all at once. Thus, companies can use chatbots to improve customer experience by providing accurate information instantly.

Restraining Factors        

If a customer asks a question about which the chatbot is unaware, it will fail to figure out the customer's purpose and will be unable to solve the posed query. A barrier to market expansion would be lack of ability of identifying customer intent.
