Canned Responses

Canned Response

Canned responses are predefined templates which means quick replies to frequently asked questions so that you can save them in your customer service tool and refer them to whenever needed. Repeating and rephrasing of answers to customer queries can be effectively eliminated with these responses. Admins or support agents create these response templates in their system. They can use these templates to respond to users quickly, which makes customers happier and reduces the time it takes to reply.


When you’re responding to a customer’s request, you can easily find the “Add Canned Response” option at the top of the description box. The list of canned responses you’ve created will be available under the Response Field. In customer service or technical support, canned responses are a helpful solution because they provide fast answers, and save time for both customers and support agents.

Benefits of using Canned Responses

1. Efficiency : Agents can quickly access and use predefined responses to common customer queries or issues, saving time and allowing them to handle a large volume of incoming queries.

2. Quick and Consistency Support : Canned responses ensure that customers receive consistent with standardized information and support. This helps to maintain the quality of service and prevents customers from receiving conflicting or incorrect information from different agents.

3. Resolution of Common Queries : Customers appreciate quick responses to their questions or concerns. With canned responses, agents can respond to customer queries more quickly, leading to faster issue resolution and improved customer satisfaction.

4. Enhanced User Experience : Canned responses can reduce user frustration and dissatisfaction and lead to a better overall customer experience.

5. Scalability : As a business grows and attracts more customers, the volume of inquiries and support requests may increase significantly. Canned responses help customer support operations without the need for a proportional increase in the support team’s size. This scalability is a cost-effective way to manage customer interactions.

6. Consistency Across Channels : Whether users interact via email, chat, social media or other channels, canned responses assist in keeping information relevant.

7. Reduced Response Time : Canned messages can help your teams respond faster, especially when dealing with questions that don’t need a lot of effort. With the canned template, you can quickly find the right predefined answer/template and send it right away.
