FrontLine™

Hassle Free Online Support Experience for Your Customers and Employees.

ComponentOne FrontLine™ helps you cut support costs while making customers happier by allowing you to share information such as documents, articles, and FAQs on a searchable Web page. This ASP.NET-based solution delivers knowledge management, ticketing, automatic escalation and even an open API in one package. FrontLine is unique in that it provides world-class power in a package that is easy to implement and manage.

Quick, Measurable ROI

ComponentOne FrontLine™ helps you quickly realize a return on investment. Providing knowledge online 24 hours a day, seven days a week enables users to find their own answers instead of contacting the support center or Help desk. This drastically reduces volume to first level support, reducing contact costs and improving service.

Consider some industry averages. Industry average costs per first level contact to the support center or help desk have a wide range of averages, but the consensus is approximately $30 per contact. That cost can increase dramatically with length of call and complexity of the subject matter. Furthermore, the average support center sees a 30% reduction (some see as much as 60%) in call volume after implementing an online knowledgebase.

The three examples below show FrontLine can pay for itself. These are meant for illustration only. Contact us to discuss a customer ROI analysis tailored to your support metrics.
