IEX TotalView Workforce Management System Helps Sento Realize Substantial Operational Improvements (
AMERICAN FORK, UTAH & RICHARDSON, TEXAS (August 09, 2005): IEX Corporation (Company Profile, Past Stories, Case Studies), a Tekelec company (Nasdaq: TKLC), today announced Sento Corporation (Nasdaq: SNTO) has realized substantial operational improvements as a result of implementing the IEX TotalView Workforce Management system.
Prior to installing TotalView, Sento used a homegrown workforce management system. “The system served us well as a smaller company,” said Mike Williams, vice president of operations for Sento. “But we’re growing rapidly. To support that growth, we needed a system with the advanced features and functionality required to effectively manage our centers.” After thoroughly evaluating about a dozen workforce management systems, Sento chose TotalView. “The biggest difference between using TotalView and our previous system is that it used to take a lot more time and resources to get the same job done,” added Williams. Sento currently has about 1,200 agents in five centers and is in the process of adding a sixth site. The TotalView system implementation was completed in March 2005. “Even though Sento has only been using TotalView for a relatively short period of time, they’ve seen strong results,” said IEX President Debbie May. “Their achievements demonstrate TotalView’s ability to help rapidly growing companies such as Sento realize a quick return on their investment and enable more effective resource management.” For more information on how Sento and other IEX customers have used TotalView to improve planning, enhance performance, streamline tasks and integrate data, visit http://www.iex.com/Solutions/success.htm.
