SupportYourApp

BACKGROUND

Please describe your company and position.

I am the Head of Customer Success of Stellar Development Foundation

Describe what your company does in a single sentence.

We run a noncustodial wallet built on the Stellar blockchains. We run 2 wallets. The first one is a core version, and it targets users in the US and Argentinian markets. The second one is an aid version that is designed to help people in need to receive financial aid through the wallet. The aid is usually paid by aid relief organizations. Currently, this version operates only in Ukraine.

OPPORTUNITY / CHALLENGE

What specific goals or objectives did you hire SupportYourApp to accomplish?

• We needed to ensure that Ukrainians who received financial help from aid relief organizations get a smooth user experience. We wanted to provide top-notch customer service to make sure they receive quality support at every step of the way.
• As our project constantly grows and expands to new markets, we want to make our users receive not only high-quality products, but also high-quality customer support. After having worked with the Ukrainian part of the SupportYourApp team, we were sure that they were a good fit for us, so we expanded our support with agents in Latin America.

We were going to expand to new markets and were in need of a support team.

BACKGROUND

Please describe your company and your position there.

We are a B2C company that develops a mediation and sleep app for global users. I am a manager.

OPPORTUNITY / CHALLENGE

For what projects/services did your company hire SupportYourApp, and what were your goals??

We initially hired SupportYourApp to assist with customer support. With time, we added taking care of our social media to the list of their responsibilities. Right now, they also handle a significant portion of our project and process documentation.

SOLUTION

How did you select this vendor and what were the deciding factors?

Our team researched several vendors, and chose SupportYourApp due to a combination of quality, cost, level of oversight provided by SYA, and ease of implementation.

Describe the project in detail and walk through their service package, including any calling tools used.

As we have users around the globe, we have a dedicated team that answers our users’ questions via email. They also escalate more serious cases directly to our team, so we can deal with issues that require product updates or an even deeper knowledge of our app. Our ticket volume varies throughout the year, with a massive increase during the holiday season. Our team speaks 19 languages — English, Spanish, Portuguese, French, German, Korean, Japanese, etc. We have consultants from Ukraine, Brazil, and the Philippines. Through the years of our cooperation, the team grew in size several times. First, they were only taking care of our customer support, but soon they also started helping us in other areas as well—including process documentation and escalated or complex cases.

Who did you work with and what was the feedback process like?

We worked largely with our Service Delivery Manager and our Team Supervisor at SYA. We meet biweekly to discuss process changes or staffing needs, and consistently communicate via Slack.

RESULTS & FEEDBACK

Can you share any measurable outcomes of the project or general feedback about the service?

We now have a large professional support team our users can turn to if they have issues while using our products. After we gave SupportYourApp additional responsibilities, we started having more time to focus on our department strategy and on improving processes on the team.

Describe their project management style, including communication tools and timeliness.

We primarily communicate via Slack, email, and regular meetings. Our contacts at SYA are very proactive with their communication of any team-related updates, and are very available for questions and requests that may come up.

What did you find most impressive or unique about this company?

Their willingness to learn and work with new things and new tasks. They are always ready to help and take on new things and responsibilities. We've consistently been able to deliver best-in-class support to our customers, in large part due to the professionalism and caliber of the SYA team.

Are there any areas for improvement or something they could have done differently?

In my time working with SYA, I have not had to work with their team on significant improvement areas. They are very good at what they do!

Our team gets moderate to high work volume. They know how to deal with customers who have difficult requests. We have coverage 7 days a week from 9 am to 11 pm. Our team members come from Ukraine, Serbia, and Nigeria. We started off with 3 support agents, but then expanded to 4 English-speaking consultants who communicate with our customers via email. And that is who our team consists of now.

Who did you work with and what was the feedback process like?

Even being in different countries, we never have problems with reaching out to our Service Delivery Manager and getting the answers we need from them. We have regular touch points and communication through Slack and Google meets.

RESULTS & FEEDBACK

We are very happy with the way the team handles difficult requests. The team’s ability to resolve any ticket (they can of course escalate especially tough tickets, if needed) has increased our resolution rate.

We meet biweekly with the delivery service manager to check in and we also have a monthly check in with the team of consultants. We also have quarterly business reviews.

OPPORTUNITY / CHALLENGE

For what projects/services did your company hire SupportYourApp?

We started working with SupportYourApp because we needed a professional team to take care of our customer support. We were also seeking a professional team that would become the first POC for our troubleshooting

SOLUTION

How did you select this firm and what were the deciding factors?

We selected SupportYourApp as a result of simple online research. We decided to start working with them because of how flexible their solution was - key to us was being able to adapt & add coverage as we go, and we can get new agents very quickly. Overall, they seemed like a very good fit for us and that is why we selected them

Describe the project in detail and walk through their service package.

We have coverage 7 days a week. SupportYourApp agents are talking to our customers through a CRM ticketing system and Slack - accounts were set up with the SupportYourApp integrations team. There are 2 dedicated consultants on our team. They both speak English. I would describe our flow as medium — so we are completely covered by the team we have at the moment

How many resources from the vendor's team worked with you, and what were their positions?

We first communicated with their Business Development department. After we officially started our cooperation, their Chief Integration Officer joined in. Together with the Service Delivery Manager, they set up the team and made sure they had everything they needed to start providing customer support

RESULTS & FEEDBACK

Can you share any outcomes from the engagement that demonstrate progress or success?

We had an in-house team previously and they were excellent, so we were concerned that an outsourced team wouldn't have the depth of experience required - however, they have maintained the excellent level of user feedback we were getting before, and are always being complimented by customers on how quickly and efficiently they resolve issues. This has enabled us to free up the previous in-house team members to take on other roles in the business, so a massive win-win

How effective was the workflow between your team and theirs?

They are always ready and willing to talk to us and to communicate with us and reach out proactively to check in regularly. Right now, we are looking into expanding our support team with them, so we are very happy with their services

What did you find most impressive or unique about this company?

We're impressed by how they connect with different customers and find a way to approach every request.

Are there any areas for improvement or something they could have done differently?

Our company has a LOT of complexity to the product, so that is something the in-house team could deal with better - but it's not something we expected of an outsourced team, they picked up on a lot of things better than we had anticipated.

SOLUTION

How did you select this firm and what were the deciding factors?

We selected them after having found their website online. We then connected with their Business Development department which provided us with all the information we required at the time. We took some time to consider other options, but nothing came close to the service SupportYourApp offered to provide us with.

Describe the project in detail and walk through their service package.

We first connected with the Business Development department. After we signed everything, we started communicating with their Integrations department. Its representatives helped us set up all the communication systems. Then our main POC became our Service delivery manager who helped us connect with the support team and provided us with all the necessary information about the team’s performance and well-being.
