Azure Bot Service and Bot Framework
We use an integrated set of tools and services within Azure Bot Service and Bot Framework to streamline your business and increase revenue.
The great thing about bots is that it gets built and connected once, and you don’t have to worry about its future compatibility. One of the primary uses we have seen in today’s world is ‘chatbots.’ Chatbots are easy to build and exist within the apps we all use today. Our consultants can help you take your business to the next level by implementing bots into your customer’s journey. We will provide you with the resources you need for all stages of bot development and deployment. Bots can be created using C#, Javascript, or Typescript with SDKs (Java and Python are under development for future use).
Building a Bot
Plan
Without a business plan, there is no forward movement. We will take a look at where your business is currently aiming in goals, processes, and user needs. Planning is an essential process of creating a successful bot. Before writing any code, we will review the best practices and identify the requirements for your business. Azure provides you with the tools needed to create simple or complex bots by including unique capabilities such as answering questions or translating speech.
Test
Bots are complex apps, with many different parts working together. Like any complex app, this can lead to some unique bugs or cause your bot to behave differently than expected. Before publishing, test your bot locally with the emulator or on the web.
Connect
Connectivity is one of the most crucial goals to have in today's world. Your bots have the connectivity to channels such as Microsoft Teams, Facebook, Messenger, Slack, Telegram, Text and SMS, Cortana, and more. Once your bot is made, the framework does most of the work necessary to communicate with these platforms. Your bot application receives a unified stream of data, regardless of the number of channels connected. This freedom allows for endless possibilities to both business and users.
Build
Your bot is essentially a web service that implements with a conversational interface. It then communicates with the Bot framework to relay messages and events. We can help you build bots in several environments and languages, such as developing bots in the Azure Portal or using JavaScript and C# templates for local development. Our team will provide you with customization services perfectly aligned with your business goals.
Publish
When you are ready to release your bot to the web, you can publish directly to Azure, datacenter or web service. The first step to creating your bot is developing a live address on the internet. Your bot then becomes available on-site or inside chat channels. After publishing your bot, you can track progress and provide full benefits to the users of the bot.
Evaluate
Use the data collected in the Azure Portal to evaluate performance and identify new opportunities. You can see professional data-like traffic, integrations, and latency. These analytics also give conversational-level reporting on channel data, users, and messages. You can use the insights to change metrics or strategically improve bot designs.
