The Nexus Platform
In October of 2013, Support.com released the latest version of its patented Nexus Service Delivery Platform. This updated version includes advanced patent pending workflow mechanization for identifying and resolving technology problems, expanded remote support tools for mobile devices, and interactive dashboards for immediate problem solving and business analytics.
“More than ever, consumers and business users depend on technology to enrich and manage their lives, so when they reach out for support, it’s a moment of truth in the customer experience. The investments we have made in the Nexus Platform target are removing barriers to delivering best-in-class technology support, so that technicians can focus on delighting customers. The latest release of Nexus incorporates what we’ve learned powering millions of support experiences for some of the country’s leading brands,” says Josh Pickus, president/CEO, Support.com.
The enhanced platform features for smartphones and tablets include a wider tool set for fast-tracking technological agent productivity and decreasing costs such as the capability to remotely establish and configure settings for Android-based mobile devices. Remote diagnostics abilities are activated by a lightweight application that connects to a chat-based support system.
The upgraded platform offers less complex creation and editing of standard operating procedure workflow—SOP Workflow, allowing for technician consistency that creates an improved customer experience over a variety of devices. The platforms’ new Workflow Editor permits consumers—with a single technician’s tool—to regulate ideal practices with a combination of remote diagnostics, automated solutions, and standard operating procedures. The Workflow Editor also comes with a cloud-based Workflow and Task Library to support the repeated use of established best practices and automation packs.
Another highlight to the updated cloud-based platform is the use of real-time analytics, new interactive dashboards that allow contact center analysts to easily comprehend and enhance service delivery costs, which are accompanied by current Nexus online reporting and data services. The innovative dashboards enable contact center staff to utilize the tools needed to perform analysis on the information acquired by Nexus during service delivery.
