…their product knowledge looks like this:
Barriers to
customer
self-service
Limited support
staff. Unscalable
to high demand
Product
information
sprawl. Lack
of easy
overview
Newest
information,
not
“unboxed”
and in use

What our customers said prior to their MindTouch deployment:
Fragmented Product Knowledge
“[Product knowledge] is spread over more than 30 systems and seven formats. Every
department is using something different.”Remington

Hard to Update
“It takes us 18 months, maybe longer, to update knowledge across our support
channels. We can’t say for certain that it has been updated.”HP

Inconsistent
“I have no idea what we’re responding with across most of our support channels.”HTC

No user analytics, no SEO
“I can tell you which articles support is using, but we have no clue what else is being
used by customers and [prospects] or how this affects our business.”Juniper Networks

So what is the customer experience…
The customer
can select
knowledge on
a product
Regular
visitors can
see what has
changed
FAQs are
truly the
articles most
accessed
Or the customer
can just search
And get served with
articles only relevant to
that search term
![Page 13: Creating Customer Service Experiences That Turn Prospects Into Promoters](https://reader034.vdocument.in/reader034/viewer/2022042601/554c7052b4c905f76f8b51a1/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)

A key differentiator and benefit of
MindTouch is that every article has a place
within a knowledge landscape. Doing so
MindTouch serves only THIS query but also
their NEXT knowledge need of the
customer along a knowledge path towards
success, adoption and advocacy.

Should your customer decide to
submit a support ticket anyhow,
MindTouch continues to serve –
reading the support query, and…
…suggests the most relevant
articles in real time in order to
get the customer to their solution
faster
