Glowpoint to Unveil its Video Call Center Solution at InfoComm07
Solution adds two-way video capabilities to Call Centers
HILLSIDE, N.J. June 14, 2007 – Glowpoint, Inc. (OTC:GLOW.PK), a premiere broadcast-quality, IP-based managed video service provider, today said it will introduce Customer Connect™, a Call Center Solution for activation of High Definition (HD) two-way video communications integrated with any call center environment, at InfoComm07, June 19 through 21, at the Anaheim Convention Center.
The solution, which “bolts” on to existing call center environments and associated systems, allows customers to connect from remote locations and interact via two-way HD video with a specialist in a call center. Whether from a video kiosk, or designated “video room” at a retail store or bank branch location, businesses can connect with their prospects and customers to discuss products and services or provide high touch service and assistance.
Businesses activating the Customer Connect solution will realize the opportunity to drive incremental revenue by increasing sales closure rates, and decreasing costs by eliminating the need to deploy specialists or service representatives across multiple geographic locations.
Customer Connect may be fully managed and hosted by Glowpoint, or integrated into an enterprise network. Scalability is dynamic and flexible, allowing access capacity to be added during peak volume periods and reduced during low call volume periods.
“Custom Connect enables a visual connection between the specialists or experts and the consumer, resulting in net new sales and improved customer relations for businesses,” said Michael Brandofino, Glowpoint’s President and CEO. “With many industries such as Banking and Finance or Retail moving toward centralized remote customer care and services, we believe demand for a remote expert solution will rise considerably as these businesses explore options to enhance their cross selling capabilities and services while staying connected with their valuable customers.”
Mr. Brandofino will be speaking on two subjects at Infocomm and participate in subsequent panel discussions - “Turning Collaborative Conferencing into a Necessity,” Tuesday, June 19, 8 – 10 AM PDT and “Making the Leap From ISDN to IP,” on Wednesday, June 20, 8 – 10 AM PDT, both in Room 207A of the Convention Center.
Visitors to the convention can see live demonstrations of Customer Connect at the Glowpoint booth, #4848, located in the Collaborative Conference Pavilion.
