As consumer use of AI-powered and self-help solutions continues to expand, CX leaders are increasingly focused on resolution, abandonment, and measurable ROI rather than containment alone. Although digital and AI-powered channels continue to grow, phone-based support still dominates a massive portion of contact volume, and many brands still struggle to deliver seamless experiences across blended journeys. The research suggests that the next phase of CX leadership will be defined not by how much automation exists, but by how intelligently it is governed and how seamlessly channels work together.

“AI is no longer experimental — it’s operational,” said Susan McDaniel, Co-Founder and COO of Execs In The Know. “But what this research makes clear is that adoption alone isn’t enough. The brands that succeed will be those that simplify journeys and ensure automation complements — rather than replaces — live-assisted support.”

Some of the most notable findings from this new research include:

• AI adoption within the contact center has more than doubled since 2022, with 67% of organizations now using AI, and another 24% planning to do so soon.
• Consumers are increasingly navigating multichannel journeys, yet only 11% of CX leaders feel their organization delivers a seamless experience.
• Self-help and AI-powered resolution are scaling, with 35% of brands now resolving 20–60% of total volume through self-help, up from just 13% in 2024.

“This research makes it clear that convenience and empathy must go hand in hand,” said Susan McDaniel, Co-Founder and COO of Execs In The Know. “While it’s true that more consumers are embracing digital and self-help channels, they continue to place high value on the ability to speak with a live agent if needed. And based on new DEI-related findings, inclusive practices are incredibly important to consumers of all ages. Brands that can deliver on both fronts will earn lasting trust and loyalty, enjoying a definitive leg up on the competition.” 

Some of the most notable findings from this new research include: 

• Text-based channels (Email, Online Chat, SMS) continue to gain traction, while use of Phone and Iin-person Iinteractions further decline, though consumers over age 60 remain strong advocates of Voice-Based support. 

• Self-help adoption (for all purposes) surged from 55% in 2024 to 78% in 2025, with resolution rates improving to 81%. Yet, 52% of consumers report abandoning self-help tools “Often” or “Always” due to poor usability or inadequate outcomes. 

• 75% of consumers have or would avoid doing business with a company if they disagreed with that company on matters related to DEI.

New results suggest consumers continue to migrate toward Text-Based solutions and away from Voice-Based solutions when interacting with customer care organizations, with 39% of consumers indicating Text-Based solutions as their most frequently used method of interaction over the past year, compared to only 31% for Voice-Based solutions. Furthermore, Self-Help solutions provided the highest resolution rate (70%) in the past three years of data, yet half of consumers (50%) continue to abandon such solutions “Often” or “Always” because such solutions can be difficult or ineffective.

In addition to the above, this 79-page report introduces new results alongside extended datasets critical to the CX industry. As a part of the research, consumers were surveyed in several critical areas including Multichannel Journeys, Self-Help and AI-Powered Solutions, and Channel Preferences. The report also contains a new section devoted to consumer opinions on CX agents, featuring 10 entirely new results.

“Consumers value great customer care experiences as a part of their overall experience with brands,” said Susan McDaniel, Co-Founder and COO of Execs In The Know. “But more than that, positive experiences lead to higher levels of loyalty, with 88% of consumers indicating that it is ‘Very Likely’ or ‘Somewhat Likely’ that a positive customer care experience will lead to increased loyalty.”

A few highlights from this latest research include:

• Fifty-three percent of consumers think it’s “Very Important” for customer care and CX to have influence within a company. Furthermore, 39% of consumers think that influence should be “Extreme.”
• Consumers continue to use Text-Based solutions (39%) more frequently than Voice-Based solutions (31%). For the third year in a row, use of Text-Based solutions continue to grow, while use of Voice-Based solutions continues to slide.
• Seventy percent of consumers were able to complete their transaction using self-help, the highest in the past three years of data, yet 50% of consumers say they “Always” or “Often” abandon support because the solution was too difficult or ineffective.

The 2024 CX Leaders Trends & Insights Consumer Edition research was produced in partnership with ACT, a U.S.-based business process outsourcing provider and global leader in customer care.

A digital copy of the new 2024 CX Leaders Trends & Insights Consumer Edition is now available for download and the entire series, including past Consumer and Corporate research, is available on the Execs In The Know website.
