Communications Service Availability can be used to share service availability with prospective customers and help staff understand customer interest.
In the highly competitive telecommunications marketplace, prospective customer confusion and frustration results in lost revenue. When communications providers can make it simple for the public to discover where services are currently available or future service offerings are planned it becomes easier to acquire new and grow existing customers in addition to reducing customer loss. Communications providers can also use expressed interest in services to better plan network expansion activities and future service offerings. Communications Service Availability is typically implemented by communication providers who want to grow revenue and improve service expansion decisions.
The Communications Service Availability solution delivers a set of capabilities that help communication providers share service availability with prospective customers and use expressed interest to inform service improvements and expansions.
