"We have been fortunate to add seasoned executives every quarter over the past year and both John and Sreeni greatly strengthen our team and execution ability in 2021 and beyond."
"I am excited to join SupportLogic to lead our commercial growth efforts. Beyond fixing product issues, support and success teams are the first stop for ensuring customer satisfaction, retention and growth. In my experience leading large global support teams, customer escalations and case backlog are two critical business issues," said John Kelly, Supportlogic Chief Revenue Officer. "SupportLogic uniquely addresses both of these challenges, allowing our customers to get in front of their business. The impact is immediate and measurable in key areas such as retention (churn), CSAT scores, and team productivity. I am impressed with our strong customer roster, executive team and investors."
"Unstructured data exceeds structured data by orders of magnitude. SupportLogic is a game changer in delivering predictions and intelligent recommendations with explainability," said Sreeni Iyer, SupportLogic VP Engineering. "We are quickly evolving our expertise in processing actionable signals and maximizing signal-to-noise ratio to enable a more proactive approach to customer support and service."
