Why Giva?
Giva eCustomerService delivers more than just a powerful, easy-to-use
customer service solution. Built on a world-class infrastructure,
it offers:
- One-week deployment
- Best-in-class usability
- Three editions to meet your needs
- Deployment with either the hosted Giva On Demand
Software™ option or local installation
One-Week Deployment
With easy set-up and configuration without programming, you can be
up and running on Giva eCustomerService quickly. In fact, existing
Giva customers have deployed Giva eCustomerService on a worldwide
basis in one week – an Internet connection and a standard Web
browser are all you need. In contrast, according to Aberdeen Group,
other customer service software solutions typically require trained
experts for set-up and customization, which may take three to six
months.
Best-in-Class Usability
The Giva customer service solution user interface is based on common
Web navigation metaphors and familiar icons, drastically reducing
training time. In fact, many Giva customers get up to speed on Giva
eCustomerService with only a single one-hour training session.
Three Editions to Meet Your Needs
Giva eCustomerService is available in Standard Edition, Professional
Edition, or Enterprise Edition. All are world-class call center software
solutions, and each includes a combination of powerful customer service
features to meet the unique needs of your company.
The edition that is right for you depends on the size of your team,
the application components you need, and the level of customization
and integration you require.
Hosted or Locally Installed Deployment
As a true Web-native solution, Giva eCustomerService is available
either with the Giva On Demand Software option hosted by Verizon Business
or locally installed on your infrastructure.
While some organizations prefer installing and running applications
internally, the Giva On Demand Software option gives you an alternative
– with this hosted customer service solution, you can immediately
access services built on a world-class infrastructure and delivered
via the Internet.
With the Giva On Demand Software option, Giva eCustomerService does
not require any client software, Web or database servers, reporting
applications, databases, or VPN equipment at any of your sites. Your
users simply securely log in to Giva eCustomerService over the Internet
and get right to work.
Editions
Giva eCustomerService is available in Standard Edition, Professional
Edition, or Enterprise Edition. All are world-class customer support
software solutions, and each includes a combination of powerful customer
service features to meet your unique needs.
