As a finalist in the Innovation in Collaboration category, Attensity Group’s Voice of the Customer (VOC) solution was honored for enabling its customers to understand and act on customer feedback and to leverage the VOC across the enterprise to improve products, services and retention rates and optimize service productivity, providing actual savings to the bottom line.
“We are very proud that Attensity Group has been recognized for its innovation,” said Ian Bonner, chief executive officer of Attensity Group. “This award is a testament to our dedication to helping our clients better understand and act on customer feedback to improve retention. This industry honor is especially rewarding in the wake of Attensity Group’s launch last month, as it recognizes our leadership in business-user applications that drive tangible business value.”
Winners and finalists were selected by a panel of judges that included industry experts, AFSMI, SSPA and TPSA members, as well as John Ragsdale, vice president of technology research for the associations.
"It's our privilege to honor Attensity Group as a proven leader in leveraging innovative technology to lower operating expenses and increase service revenues, which is critical in today's challenging economy," said Ragsdale.
