customers can submit trouble tickets at company’s Helpdesk to complain
about system errors of the MERA products deployed on their networks and
file service requests. Trouble tickets may be allocated to technical
support or customer care department. Technical support team processes
installation and setup requests registers software errors and consults
customers about products' functionality and configuration. Customer
Care team deals with suggestions of how to improve products'
functionality or accompanying documentation and marketing materials.
Users can also benefit from information sections available at Helpdesk. The News section covers relevant information about MERA products and new services. The Download section features the latest versions of product documentation and release notes. The Knowledgebase
section includes the list of issues reported and fixed in different
versions of MERA products and the list of functionality enhancements
planned for future product releases. The lists are mainly based on MERA
customers’ suggestions.
MERA Systems launched the Helpdesk in late 2007 but the service
already proved to be worthwhile. The results of the poll conducted
among MERA Helpdesk users in March 2008 show that 80% of the
respondents have rated the quality of technical support provided via
Helpdesk as high. The average grade was 4.3 out of 5. The majority of
customers rated their satisfaction with the professional competence of
engineers as 4.5. On the whole, more than two thirds of respondents
expressed their confidence that the quality of the technical support
service improved since MERA Helpdesk was launched. The rest of the
customers remained neutral about the changes.
MERA Helpdesk not only allows for high quality of customer service
but also facilitates communication between MERA staff and clientele.
The service provided via Helpdesk is now extended to a new 24x7
schedule. Technical support was available on weekends only in emergency
situations, but now customers can address MERA staff anytime. The new
schedule ensures promptness and efficiency of the service.
MERA staff continues working on enhancing Helpdesk capabilities
according to customers’ requests. Within the next 6 months the company
plans to introduce a list of frequently asked questions (FAQ), add
information about new products and a forum for customers.
The company invites its new customers to explore the benefits of
Helpdesk: visit information sections, submit comments and suggestions.
MERA Systems aims at taking customer service to the new level and will
work further to meet immediate needs of the company’s clientele.
