HDI Tip of the Day
“Is Web-based tech support the silver bullet that finally transforms the terrible economics of PC software support? It’s easy to be skeptical, because so many other breakthrough ideas in support—fee-based plans, new automation technologies, outsourcing—never quite delivered on their promise of huge cost savings. But this time something very real seems to be happening. Given a choice between searching a knowledgebase on the Web or talking to a live technician, customers increasingly seem to prefer the self-help Web approach.” – The Year’s Ten Best Web Support Sites, produced by Soft?letter & The Association of Support Professionals
