SYSPRO Exclusive ERP Provider Honored in Category “Most Customer Friendly Company of the Year”
SYSPRO, a provider of best-of-breed, award-winning enterprise resource planning (ERP) software for on-premise and cloud-based utilization, announced today that SYSPRO has been named a Silver winner in the “Most Customer Friendly Company of the Year” category in the Best in Biz Awards, the only independent business awards program judged by members of the press and industry analysts.
SYSPRO, which enjoys one of the highest customer retention rates in the industry, was selected for outstanding customer service. The company’s fully staffed Customer Relations Department reports directly to the company president and follows an exacting program jointly developed by the company president, an advisory board comprised of company managers and the Customer Service Manager. While elevating customer satisfaction is the responsibility of the SYSPRO Customer Service staff, customer relations and retention are also the responsibilities of every SYSPRO employee, notes Joey Benadretti, President, SYSPRO USA.
The SYSPRO Customer Service Program and high customer retention rates have also been the subject of advisories by software industry analysts, the most recent being an opinion write up by IDC Analyst Mary Wardley, who notes in her paper “SYSPRO: Differentiation Through a Customer Experience Go-to-Market Strategy”, June 13, 2013, “The ‘century of the customer’ has centered on increasing customer experience and, powered by social media, is motivating organizations to invest in their customer-handling infrastructure. . .” She concludes: “SYSPRO is exemplary of a company that exemplifies the ‘culture, strategy, and processes’ component of IDC’s CX taxonomy. . . ”
