Latest On Demand CRM Release Leverages Conversations in the Cloud and Internal Customer Data To Help Companies Deliver Exceptional Customer Experiences
SYDNEY – MAY 28, 2009 — RightNow (NASDAQ: RNOW) adds Cloud Monitor and Enterprise Analytics to the latest version of its on demand customer relationship management (CRM) solution, RightNow May ‘09.
“Today, companies can’t force one-sided conversations with customers; enterprises must listen closely to what consumers are saying. RightNow’s new Cloud Monitor and Enterprise Analytics help organisations take the next step in delivering great experiences by listening to and understanding customers,” said Greg Gianforte, CEO, RightNow.
The RightNow Cloud Monitor tracks external conversations about products, services and brands, as they occur on the social Web. Available now, the Cloud Monitor tracks both Twitter and YouTube; support for other social networking sites like Facebook, MySpace and LinkedIn is planned for the future. RightNow Enterprise Analytics provides deep analysis on the internal data collected through direct customer interactions.
RightNow is the first SaaS (software as a service) CRM vendor to provide comprehensive business intelligence using both internal and external data.
RightNow Cloud Monitor Brings Customer Service to Social Networking
RightNow Cloud Monitor helps companies follow discussions on social networking sites. Based on what the Cloud Monitor reports, an organisation can use RightNow Service to initiate next steps; follow up can range from updating information on the web site to the automatic creation of a service incident or proactive outreach.
The Cloud Monitor also uses RightNow’s unique SmartSense emotion detection to dynamically scan the text of tweets (and other content) and assess how consumers feel about a business. For example, a negative emotion score could be prioritised for immediate action.
“We see significant value in tracking what is being said about our company and our products out in the social arena. RightNow’s latest release will allows us to leverage our existing RightNow Service solution to track Twitter and easily respond to tweets by reaching out directly to our customer to help solve the problem. Keeping up with and exceeding consumer expectations is challenging, but at iRobot we are committed to delivering the very best customer experiences,” said Maryellen Abreu, director of global technical support, iRobot.

“It is not enough to simply track the discussion in the ‘cloud’ or collect customer data from interactions, the key is using this knowledge to proactively engage with consumers to ensure better experiences.

As the first on demand vendor to include both Twitter and YouTube as customer service channels, we are giving our clients a unique opportunity to glean insight from rapidly evolving social networking sites,” said David Vap, vice president, products, RightNow.
