Case Study:

Transforming the Customer Service Center

The customer, a European manufacturer of industrial printers, faced a lot of challenges when providing their clients with product documentation. They faced a lack of standardization, poorly organized exchange of knowledge within the company and selling partners, the oversized service team, and the service costs going over the roof. The customer was looking for a solution that would enable them to keep growing the business while keeping costs under control.
