simplify360Traditionally, customer care organizations are single faceted in their dealings with customers, engaging with their clients in traditional channels such as: phone, email, chat and web interactions.  Companies take great pride in sharing their customer satisfaction scores with their customers and boasting about their quality scores, handle times, first call resolution, and other semi-important metrics based on traditional channels.
With the abundance of chatter on social networks there is a challenge on what customers are saying to a company, not about the about the company. Companies that ignore this dialog are running the risk of deluding themselves as. It is critical to observe both direct active interactions as well as the passive conversations that take place regarding their products, services and offerings.
Simplify360’s Social Media solution allows companies to listen to what their clients are saying, analyze the results and proactively act on what people are saying about you. Combining strengths, Simplify360 and Ridgehead Software are taking knowledge management and customer service to the next level.  Information managers meet information scientists!
