MCLEAN, Va., Nov. 2, 2017 /PRNewswire/ -- Jeff Rumburg, co-founder and managing partner of MetricNet, presented Session 104, 'META Reps, and the Convergence of Level 1 and Desktop Support,' at the annual FUSION conference in Orlando, Fla. This marks the fourth consecutive year Mr. Rumburg has been selected as a speaker for the annual FUSION Conference & Expo.
In this presentation, Mr. Rumburg shared the business benefits of combining level 1 and desktop support, discussed when it's appropriate to combine these support groups, provided an approach to identify and develop successful META Reps and highlighted the success factors for merging level 1 and desktop support.
"In recent years, an increasing number of support organizations have merged level 1 and desktop support into a single, homogeneous support entity," said Rumburg.
