Press Release Summary: Leading Search Company Selects eGain for Increased Efficiency and Superior Levels of Customer Service via Intelligent Email Management Solution
Press Release Body: Slough, UK - April 2, 2008 - eGain, the leading provider of multichannel customer service and knowledge management software, today announced that Eniro, the Nordics' leading directories and search company, has selected its email management products to improve the quality and efficiency of its customer service. eGain MailT is set to alleviate the pressures and demands of email communication between its multiple contact centres and its customers. It is replacing existing Microsoft Outlook programs that were unable to cope with the company's increasingly high volumes of customer demand. Eniro - Finland's answer to Yell.com - is driven to deliver quality services to a wide-ranging customer base so demand for efficient customer service and near-instant response times is of the utmost importance. After a competitive tender process involving twelve other providers, eGain's powerful and robust solution was the only one that could provide the comprehensive information that Eniro needed for assured customer service management. Juha Saarinen, Eniro's System Architect explains: "Our primary concern was improving our email processes, as too much time was being wasted by agents sifting through emails - and Outlook only seemed to exacerbate the problem. We receive an incredible mix of enquiries and cherry picking them simply isn't an option. It was imperative that our solution could differentiate between each and every enquiry to improve our handling times, and by ticketing each and every mail we receive, eGain MailT has made our whole communications process faster and a lot more efficient." In addition to improving email handling, Eniro needed a solution to ease the strain on its marketing department, which is tasked with producing regular customer service reports. "Compiling the information and necessary statistics from Microsoft Outlook was proving time- consuming and increasingly difficult. We required a better understanding of our customer base and wanted the ability to profile customers that phone in; not only to better the customer experience, but also enable our agents to adjust marketing and sales to promote additional suitable products" Saarinen comments. Since implementing eGain MailT, Eniro has seen a notable difference in its customer service operations and enquiry handling times were improved significantly during the pilot alone. Email handling and customer response times have been notably improved whilst the company is benefitting from the automatic generation of periodic reports for customer service management. Saarinen concludes: "The easy-to-use user interface has proved a great success across the company and the results speak for themselves. We rely heavily on our back office systems for information and databases, and the next step of our IT strategy will address how we can utilise and integrate eGain's Knowledge Management solutions to further improve our customer experience." -Ends- About eGain eGain (OTC BB: EGAN.OB) is a leading provider of multichannel customer service and knowledge management software for in-house or on-demand SaaS deployment.
