In 2024, 1 grid implemented SAP WalkMe on its public website to advance Digital Adoption for customer onboarding and self-service support. The deployment establishes SAP WalkMe as the Digital Adoption layer used to deliver contextual guidance across 1 grid web properties.
SAP WalkMe was deployed as a client-side engagement layer, embedding WalkMe scripts into site pages to provide guided walkthroughs, tooltips, contextual help, interactive task lists, and event-level analytics for adoption monitoring.

In 2024, 1 grid deployed Freshdesk Messaging (Formerly Freshchat) on their website. The implementation uses Freshdesk Messaging (Formerly Freshchat) as the web conversational layer and is categorized under Chatbots and Conversational AI, supporting customer support and pre-sales engagement for the company's Professional Services operations in South Africa.
The deployment centers on a website-embedded chat widget configured with conversational bot flows, automated greetings, canned responses, and agent handoff to live support, leveraging Freshdesk Messaging (Formerly Freshchat) standard modules for session management and message threading. Configuration work emphasized intent-based routing and conversational triggers to surface high priority customer queries to support staff and to collect lead contact data.
Operational scope covers support and sales teams within 1 grid, with governance patterns that assign channel ownership, agent queues, and escalation workflows to ensure consistent response processes. Because the implementation is hosted as a web-embedded Freshdesk Messaging (Formerly Freshchat) instance, integrations are limited to the website engagement layer and internal process changes focused on chat-first service handling and scripted conversational playbooks.
