Customer Service & Support
SupportDesk can be delivered configured and ready to run for Customer Service & Support (CSS). It provides organisations with the tool to create and implement service and processes that will support their customers and provide a service level without peer. (See Case Study)
SupportDesk CSS offers our SupportDesk configured to run in an environment where external customers are being supported. Prompts and fields throughout the system are optimised to express the terminolgy and information that is most relevant to the generic customer service environment and this can then be tuned in situ using the Data Dictionary to best express your business. Inventory, version information, and contract information can easily be maintained for all customers making the recording of calls efficient and guaranteeing that the information is appropriate. Through the WebServer module unlimited customers can log and view their own calls or query a managed knowledge base to encourage self diagnosis.
