WOW-24/7 has consistently demonstrated a strong commitment to delivering high-quality L1 Support services for BR-DGE. The scope of work was very specific, we needed to provide 24/7 phone support to our customers, and WOW gave us a cost effective, highly reliable solution.

The level of confidence this instills in our customer base is immeasurable as they operate in a busy payments industry that never sleeps.

BACKGROUND

Please describe your company and your position there.

I'm the head of our Guest Experience Department at a global travel company.

OPPORTUNITY / CHALLENGE

For what projects/services did your company hire WOW24-7, and what were your goals??

Following the pandemic, we needed a team of agents who could help us handle our inbound volume (via chat, email, and calls.) Our main goals were to provide a great quality of service to our clients coming back to travel post-pandemic and to be able to provide agents for them to speak to over our normal working hours.

SOLUTION

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

We chose this company based on their reviews, the affordability of their team, and the onboarding timeframe quoted to us.

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

This team provided coverage daily support to our clients via ZenDesk and our own in-house database. They provided extensive coverage for us and transferred onto Salesforce and TalkDesk with us, adjusting to the new platforms quite quickly.

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

We have an account manager who I work with daily to check in on the team's quality. She and an assigned QA manager go through our quality on a monthly basis and check in to make sure that our QA needs haven't changed.

RESULTS & FEEDBACK

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

Our volume has tripled since the pandemic and our abandonment rate has dropped. We are able to give clients the support they need in an appropriate timeframe rather than having to call them back and it gives me more time to follow up on business needs.

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

We have a bi-weekly meeting scheduled with QA, our project manager and a few others from WOW to check in and see how the team are doing. If we provide any feedback, they are very quick to implement. I meet with our project manager on a weekly basis for updates.

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

They provided such a quick onboarding and I didn't expect the quality to be as good as it is. They provide additional training on phones, emails and responses outside of our training to help support the team during onboarding.

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

To be honest, they've been one of the best outsourcing companies I have worked with so far.

OPPORTUNITY / CHALLENGE

For what projects/services did your company hire WOW24-7, and what were your goals??

We run a 24/7 customer support service for our Saas business. We are a small to medium company and previously provide all support in-house. This was growing difficult to staff for out of hours.

With less volume and higher costs and difficulty finding and training agents to cover these hours, we decided that we wanted a managed service that was within budget and would handle the hiring and training and be at least cost-neutral.

SOLUTION

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

We selected this vendor after receiving quotes and discussing with various support services based around the globe. We selected wow24-7 as they were able to provide us with a shared service that fitted our volume and budget.

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

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

The ramp-up period was quite quick. Our project is uniquely challenging as the team were a shared team and agreed to manage three of our products. They take feedback on board and find solutions. During the past couple of months with the war ongoing in their home country they have succesfully mainatained all agreed KPIs.

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

The initial hiring was quite a revolving door process. It may require better vetting of candidates to ensure there are more long term hires. The team lead is a critical contributor to this.

BACKGROUND

Introduce your business and what you do there?

I’m the head of support for Spryker Systems GmbH. We provide an e-commerce operating system for medium-sized companies. Currently, we have roughly 400 employees and are based in Germany, but we’re also expanding globally.

OPPORTUNITY / CHALLENGE

What challenge were you trying to address with Wow24-7?

We needed a team to provide support to our customers across different time zones around the clock.

SOLUTION

What was the scope of their involvement?

Wow24-7’s team provides first response support to our customers.

What is the team composition?

In the beginning, we worked with an onboarding manager. The account manager is my main point of contact, and there are currently five support representatives working with us.

How did you come to work with Wow24-7?

Our company screens service providers. Wow24-7 was already working with the company when I joined. I believe they offered the best quality for the price, making them the most economical choice.

How much have you invested with them?

We’ve spent between $10,000–$25,000.

What is the status of this engagement?

We began working together in August 2020, and it’s an ongoing relationship.

RESULTS & FEEDBACK

What evidence can you share that demonstrates the impact of the engagement?

They respond within the guaranteed time we tell our customers and provide 15–20 first responses each day. Wow24-7 is an essential component of our support offering.

How did Wow24-7 perform from a project management standpoint?

The onboarding manager did a good job doing the initial setup for onboarding, including communication. Our products and processes are complicated, so that was an important step. So far, the engagement is smooth. We communicate via email and chat rooms, and they’re available and responsive.

What did you find most impressive about them?

One of the things I like about Wow24-7 is that they appreciate that we’re a fast-paced company. If we approach them with last-minute requests, they prioritize them and go quickly into action. For example, we asked them to add Russian language support, and they immediately began working on it.

Are there any areas they could improve?

To add to their efficiency, they could add tech-savvy resources to their teams. Our product mainly targets developers, so that would be helpful for our customers.

Do you have any advice for potential customers?

Set long-term objectives and describe who your company is to the onboarding manager. Also, engage with the agents and help them understand how things work so they can do the best possible job.

BACKGROUND

Please describe your company and your position there.

My name is Frank, I am a business development manager at Slidepeak. Slidepeak is a presentation design company that creates customized, professional, and on-brand presentations for any occasion. The service covers all presentation processes including redesign, design based on existing content and brand new presentation with an option of content creation.

OPPORTUNITY / CHALLENGE

For what projects/services did your company hire Wow24-7, and what were your goals??

We work with different clients from all over the world and they have high quality standards and expectations in regards to services they are provided with. So we needed a team of professionals that could provide that level of customer support service. Responsibilities of an agent included determining customers’ needs, communicating them to our account manager and handling any issues or edit requests.

SOLUTION

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

We were referred to WOW24-7 by someone from our network. We had a call with their sales manager. After we told him about our needs and requirements, he gave us an estimated offer, and it sounded great. They offered highly qualified agents, great SLA terms, flexibility and all of this at an affordable price. So we decided that WOW24-7 would be a good outsourcing partner.

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

WOW24-7 reps receive order requests from our customers, verify them, identify customer information and their preferences and pass the order over to our design team that makes a presentation based on received data. They also reply to customer inquiries regarding making changes to a presentation or any arising issues.

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

We have a team of 4 customer representatives. They set a rotating schedule that allows for 24/7 customer support coverage. The agents show a great level of customer service and design knowledge which is very important to us.

RESULTS & FEEDBACK

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

Since we started working with WOW24-7 our response speed increased by 30 percent which positively impacted customer satisfaction rate. Also, as our agents were able to build an effective communication system the workflow between our design team and clients significantly improved. There have been less errors and miscommunication in order processing which previously dragged our productivity down a little bit.

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

WOW24-7 has been very responsive and committed all along. They run quality checks regularly to make sure that agents effectively fulfill tasks set before them. They’ve also been very adaptive and responsive to any changes in our product or business operations. Overall, the communication between us has been great.

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

That would have to be their efficiency and productivity in everything they do. We've been impressed with their ability to quickly learn about our business and integrate agents into our team. Also, the agents are super friendly and helpful. They will go the extra mile to find a solution to a customer’s problem and make sure they are satisfied with our product. That’s the kind of people we were looking for for our customer support team.

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

Can’t think of any. We are completely satisfied with their work.

BACKGROUND

Please describe your company and your position there.

We make star maps that show constellations that are at a particular place and time. For example, you can order a map with a constellation that was in the sky above the place where you were born and at the time of your birth. My name is Fiona King, I am a head of the customer service department at Under Lucky Stars.

OPPORTUNITY / CHALLENGE

For what projects/services did your company hire Wow24-7?

We hired them to provide 24/7 customer service for our product. We wanted to have around-the-clock support so our customers could contact us anytime either by live chat or by email and there would always be somebody to help them.

SOLUTION

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

Before we contracted with WOW24-7 we were not able to offer 24/7 service. We had a very limited customer service response. Our commitment was to respond to emails within 24 hours of receiving them but we were able to turn on the chat facility only when we were not overloaded with emails, and at that point, we had a much smaller team.

So we unable to cater to the U.S. market in the way we wanted to because since we are based in Barcelona, our timetable is quite different from the U.S. market, which is our principal market. We wanted to expand our customer service team to be able to provide proper client care. When we were looking for a customer support provider WOW24-7 seemed to offer the best prices compared with other similar companies. That was the primary reason why we chose WOW24-7.

Describe the project in detail and walk through the stages of the project.

We started by introducing WOW24-7 agents to our product and our customer support system. We familiarized them with the kinds of inquiries we receive from customers. Also, we showed them our standard answers and encouraged them to modify them according to the customer’s specific queries, comments or complaints. Once we saw that the agents were competent enough we started putting them on live chats.

They also respond you customer messages on our Instagram and recently, they started checking orders. They make sure that there are no spelling errors on the star map, which is a common problem since a lot of customers place orders from their phones. They also manage product issues like damaged maps or delivery delays and navigate those problems with our print labs.

Describe the recruitment process in detail.

We briefed Wela 24 seven on our requirements and they provided us with candidates who we interviewed. We then spent a two week period training the agents, followed by a period of monitoring their work for a week. Once we were satisfied that the agents were reaching the high standards we expected we confirmed their employment.

RESULTS & FEEDBACK

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

They’ve provided us with the 24/7 support that we weren’t able to provide on our own. They took over the responsibility of replying to our clients’ queries which is a very time-consuming task. This allowed our employees to focus on some of the more challenging issues related to customer service and product development. Sometimes it can be very time-consuming to try and resolve specific difficulties and issues that clients have so having a reliable customer support team helps a lot.

How effective was the workflow between your team and theirs?

The workflow between our teams has always been very good. We usually communicate through channels on Slack. And once a month we have a video call with one agent at a time. I think we have been very lucky with the agents. They are all very professional and committed to providing a good service for our company and for the customers that we have.

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

WOW24-7 agents have been very professional and competent, but they also have great personalities. It’s important for us to not come out like robots in our communication with customers. We want to come out as a caring and considerate retailer. And WOW24-7 agents’ emotional intelligence and professionalism have done that very well by being empathetic and using human touch in their interactions with customers. They have managed to balance being professional and competent with also allowing their own personalities to come through in their interactions with our clients.

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

The agents are very responsive to all of our requests. If we ask them to do over and above something we’ve originally imagined they would do, they happily agree. So there really isn’t anything we can ask them to improve in because they are always willing to take on more responsibilities. We are very satisfied with our agents.

We support a library of validated visit modules, web reports, randomization schemas, supply algorithms, administrative functions and messages. My name is Stuart Henderson, I am the Quality Manager for HMD Clinical.

OPPORTUNITY / CHALLENGE

For what projects/services did your company hire Wow24-7?

We got in touch with the WOW24-7 team because we needed help with customer support service. We have inquiries coming at different times as our clients are all over the world, so it was very hard for us to handle customer service on our own. And that’s why we decided to outsource it to WOW24-7.

What were your goals for this project?

Customer experience is everything for us. We needed an agency that could deliver professional first line support across several channels such as emails, phone calls, Zendesk chats, etc. And WOW24-7 has done a fabulous job.

SOLUTION

How did you select Wow24-7?

The main reason why we chose WOW24-7 was that they offered the best service. But also, we visited different agencies, including WOW24-7, and we got a really good feel for the business.

We liked the fact that everyone was doing what they were supposed to do. For instance, the project manager actually works on the project and gives feedback to the team. Also, it was very easy to communicate with the company’s agents which is important to us.

Describe the project in detail.

Our clients use our system for their clinical trials. Very occasionally there are times when people need support, so the WOW24-7 team provides that help via email, phone and live chat.

What was the team composition?

WOW24-7 has a very stable and dedicated team. It’s a complete opposite to the team we had before from a different agency, where they had around 30 people answering the calls, making it difficult for us to identify who spoke with our clients. So their service wasn’t good. WOW24-7 is totally different. Their service has been amazing for us.

RESULTS & FEEDBACK

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

WOW24-7 has had such a positive impact on our business. They suggested doing calls from us and that turned out to work very well for us. Moreover, they introduced us to Slack- a very useful and convenient tool. We use it for all our calls and internal communications.

How effective was the workflow between your team and theirs?

Communication between our teams has been very good. If they have a question or a problem they just jump on Slack and address it. They always do the right thing. And even when they were dealing with something we didn’t think they’d be able to answer, they have actually found the right answer. So it’s been brilliant. They definitely exceeded our expectations.

What did you find most impressive about this company?

The best thing about WOW24-7 is their dedication and commitment to what they’re doing. We know that we can rely on them and not worry about our clients not being helped. It gives us a great deal of peace of mind.

Are there any areas for improvement?

I can’t think of any.

We needed qualified specialists that could provide empathetic customer support to our users. We knew how important customer service is when it comes to business success. WOW24-7 helped us take care of our client and therapist requests and deliver professional customer service.

What were your goals for this project?

Since clients share sensitive information with us, we wanted to have a customer support team that would be friendly and considerate. The main goal was to make sure that our clients have a positive experience from the first time they visit our website or reach out to us with a question, to establish that we needed customer support representatives that would comprehend the diversity of our client base and be able to deliver exceptional service systematically. WOW24-7 agents turned out to be exactly that.

SOLUTION

How did you select Wow24-7?

We found WOW24-7 through a referral from our network. After a productive conversation with them, we weighed up all aspects of their offer and decided to take it.

Describe the project in detail.

WOW24-7 agents help our therapists and clients navigate through our platform. They provide our users with technical support answering questions and resolving any occurring issues.

How effective was the workflow between your team and theirs?

WOW24-7 customer support representatives are very professional. They have been easy to communicate with and have always been ready to provide any information we request.

What did you find most impressive about this company?

The most impressive part about WOW24-7 was its customized solutions and efficiency of agents’ work. It’s hard to rely on an external provider for your customer service. But WOW24-7 team could win our trust by building strategies tailored specifically to our needs and effectively implementing them in their work.

Are there any areas for improvement?

Not for now. Keep up the great work!
