Learn about the new breed of remote support that is rapidly being adopted by Support Centers. David Kay, DB Kay & Associates, will share his findings from the recently completed industry survey. Davids research included speaking with a variety of companies including Cognos, Epicor, and Agilent to understand how they have integrated remote support into their customer support offerings enabling them to reduce support costs and increase customer satisfaction. Following is a sampling of the comments received? EMPLOYEE ADOPTION "Weve rolled out a number of different technologies over the years. Theres always some growing pain analysts dont immediately see the benefit. Remote access was different: there was an immediate impact, so this was the easiest adoption weve ever had." INCREASED PRODUCIVITY / REDUCED SUPPORT COSTS "Its faster to use [the customers system], not duplicate it?The engineers are saying that calls that took one or two weeks, elapsed, now take 30 minutes. We take out the phone tag, the email tag, and the turn around time, and just have the actual resolution time." INCREASED CUSTOMER SATISFACTION "Before, it would take a day or a couple of days to help the customers. But the customers needed help right away. So, the top level driver for remote access was customer satisfaction via a timely resolution of the problem. Cost savings was a nice second benefit.Our customer satisfaction scores have gone up by 12%."
