Bomgar and PlumChoice Address Next Generation Support at Technology Services World

) October 19, 2009 -- Bomgar Corporation (http://www.bomgar.com), the only provider of appliance-based, cross-platform remote support software, and PlumChoice, the leader in next-generation online customer support, will jointly present at the Technology Services World Expo held in Las Vegas on October 19-21, 2009 at the Mirage.

The session titled, "The Next Generation of Customer Support," will explore the evolving support landscape and the methodology and tools organizations need to maintain customer satisfaction despite increased demand.

Customer support is entering a new phase with technology end-users requiring more support as advanced consumer electronics and mobile computing devices become the mainstream. The mission to support these new and complex technologies, along with increasing consumer demands and expectations, is forcing organizations to optimize support operations while maintaining security and efficiency. The presentation will be given on Tuesday, October 20 at 1:40p.m. in Theater No. 1 as part of the event's lunch and theater solution sessions.

During the presentation, attendees will hear from Jeff Johnson, Bomgar's vice president of customer relations, and Joseph Rappa, the director of strategic accounts for PlumChoice. The two speakers will highlight the strategies needed to modernize support operations, including how to control customer support costs, maximize security, optimize processes and staff resources, and support multiple operating systems and mobile devices.

    As the number of computer users grows day by day, the demand for PC related support is gradually increasing. When a consumer buys a computer or software from a company, the company provides guarantee and free support for a definite period (mostly one year). After the free-support period, customers are required to pay to get support, and the cost is comparatively high. There is a steady increase of consumers who now look to the emerging online technical companies for technical support and other services. Sometimes, the companies find it hard to support their ever expanding customer base and this results in hardship for customers such as waiting for long to get assistance, issues not getting resolved immediately, etc.
