Socializing Customer Support to Drive Business
Value

Ninety percent of customer service decision-makers tell Forrester that a good customer experience is critical to their company’s success. Sixty-three percent think the importance of the customer experience has risen.
A good customer experience is good for business
But, few companies deliver an outstanding customer
experience
Customer service decision makers walk a fine balance between the needs of customers and the needs of the
business
Contact center managers look to reducing handle times and increasing
satisfaction
Inaccurate and inaccessible corporate knowledge increases costs and decreases
customer satisfaction
Collaborative knowledge technologies take off, and help with delivering a good
customer experience
Social collaboration software moves the needle on all customer service metrics
