SuccessFactors Announces SuccessGold: New Customer Support Offering Tailored for Medium-Sized Businesses
SuccessGold Underscores SuccessFactors' Continued Commitment to Customer Success and Provides Organizations with Managed Support That Is Aligned with their Top Priorities and Business Objectives
NEW YORK, June 18 -- SuccessFactors, Inc. (NASDAQ: SFSF), the global leader in on-demand performance and talent management solutions, today announced at the SuccessConnect New York conference the availability of SuccessGold, a premium level support offering, tailored to meet mid-market business needs.
Continuing to help SuccessFactors' mid-sized customers drive business results, SuccessGold offers personalized focus and execution from customer support that was previously out of reach for these organizations. Many mid-sized organizations today operate in complex and dynamic business environments that resemble larger, enterprise companies. These organizations value the increased focus and partnership that comes with managed support that is aligned with their top priorities and business objectives. With SuccessGold, an assigned support account manager is responsible for coordinating the support effort while keeping their organizations' goals and best interests top of mind. This new offering was designed primarily to meet the needs of users of the SuccessPractices edition, which is used by businesses ranging in size from 500 to 2500 employees.
SuccessGold includes all of the benefits of SuccessStandard plus:
-- Planning and alignment around a customer's HCM calendar and peak use periods to ensure maximum preparation and effectiveness of the customer support team;
-- Ongoing focus, oversight, and administration of the support experience by a support account manager who will ensure all cases are handled effectively; and,
-- Personal orientation to the Customer Success team, which includes an overview of CS, best practices for customer support, and a preview of available online knowledge and training resources to help them be most successful.
"Providing a managed support experience for our medium-sized customers was the next logical step. Due to customer demand and insightful feedback, we've listened and created another level of service which we think will bring substantial increases in satisfaction and further help companies bridge the gap between business strategy and execution," said Paul Albright, general manager, SMB & CMO, SuccessFactors. "We've taken our close customer partnerships and created a higher level of service engagement that taps into the specific needs of these companies."
