PlumChoice's decade-plus capabilities in technology services, customer experience, best-practice processes and technology are now available in a single package to organizations looking to interact with customers in new ways and provide a differentiated service experience that builds loyalty and long-term customer relationships. With TSS, organizations can deliver efficient, effective technology support services to fit their unique business needs, extending or enhancing a current program or building a new technology services business.

PlumChoice partner N.E.W. Customer Service Companies (NEW), a leading provider of extended service plans and product protection programs, selected TSS as their technology services solution of choice.

Based on the success of a TSS-enabled technology services program launch for a major NEW client, Tim Smith, Director of Product Development at NEW said, "Our research of premium tech support platforms focused on solutions that would allow our customer care team to operate at peak performance while delivering a seamless, unmatched industry experience to our end users. With the increasing number of connected devices in the home and consumer demand for support, we saw opportunities for our partners and wanted a way to take our tech support to a new level. Partnering with PlumChoice did just that. Their customer-centric platform innovations and proven leadership in the industry allow us to deliver a one-call-does-it-all service experience resulting in complete customer satisfaction."

"TSS is a game-changer," said Ted Werth, Chief Strategy Officer of PlumChoice. "Smart devices, mobile and wireless capabilities and interconnected digital entertainment products have transformed the way consumers live and work, but the support infrastructure hasn't kept up with new demands. With TSS, companies can create and manage successful technology services businesses to meet that demand. TSS extends the amazing capabilities and support resources that have made PlumChoice the technology services solutions provider of choice to our partners. TSS enables other companies to leverage PlumChoice's long-standing expertise and SAFElink®, the technology support industry's only integrated business services delivery technology, via a powerful new software-as-a-service solution. TSS gives forward-thinking companies like NEW a way to enhance productivity for both their technical staff and their customers."

TSS integrates preventive, self-initiated and technician-assisted service automation technologies to empower end users and service desk agents to better support customers at the first point of contact. It is a reinvention of technology support services that focuses on the customer experience, increasing call center efficiency, reducing costs, improving sales and enabling seamless service overflow management by putting customers first.

TSS includes Virtual Support Agent (VSA), a desktop software application that monitors computers, proactively fixes basic issues, detects problems that require intervention and sends user alerts, providing recommendations to assist users with resolving problems. VSA connects users to a support technician to resolve more complex technical issues. In addition, TSS includes Triage and Service Portal (TASP). In conjunction with VSA, the Portal delivers customer tracking and ticketing capabilities, device telemetry and changes, and an Incident Automation Library to initiate service automation. Unlike similar applications, TASP does not require remote control access to deliver support services.
