Software of Excellence “highly rated” for customer satisfaction in support

By soenews on February 2, 2011

The Software of Excellence Support Team have reported their best ever customer satisfaction results following a survey conducted at the end of last year by independent research consultants Converso.   In the survey Software of Excellence outperformed their largest competitor in every key area, achieving a clear 12% lead in overall customer satisfaction ratings.

The ability to resolve issues quickly and easily is vital for practices, as any disruption to the management system can cause surgery downtime.  Most practice managers and principals regard excellent customer support as a critical part of what they expect from a practice management supplier.

In the survey, customers were asked about many aspects of the service they receive from product knowledge of support staff, to time taken to resolve problems and telephone manner.   Software of Excellence’s support centre is now open on Saturday mornings from 9am to 1pm.  This has been a contributing factor in increasing satisfaction levels in comparison to a similar survey conducted in 2009.

Brian Weatherly, Managing Director of Software of Excellence commented;

“We believe customer service, both for existing and potential customers to be one of our key priorities.  Software of Excellence has continually strived to improve our levels of service and support.  The results of this survey are a reflection of our ongoing investment in product,  people, processes and technology, and we are delighted with the results. “
