eGain OnDemand™ Customer Service and KM Software Selected as a 2007 KMWorld Trend-Setting Product
First-ever hosted enterprise software recognized for innovation, customer focus and business value
Mountain View, CA, September 19, 2007 --(PR.com)-- eGain Communications Corporation (OTC BB: EGAN.OB), provider of the top-rated* customer service and contact center software for in-house or on-demand SaaS deployment, today announced that KMWorld magazine has named eGain OnDemand™ as a Trend-Setting Product for 2007. Among the various criteria used to select winners, customer feedback was the most relevant.
Hugh McKellar, KMWorld editor in chief, said, "More than 650 individual products were considered by our team of editors, analysts, integrators and users. Each and every company whose products were chosen for this year's list of Trend-Setting Products is being acknowledged for its willingness to listen and serve its customers in useful and innovative ways."
The hosted version of eGain Service™ suite, eGain OnDemand enables companies to rapidly deploy enterprise-class customer interaction hubs (CIH), without requiring extensive IT resources. The solution is built on the eGain CIH™ Platform that centralizes multichannel interactions, knowledge bases, business rules, workflow, analytics and administration in a common foundation. Unlike most other customer service software vendors, eGain provides a broad choice of proven deployment options – on-premise, on-demand and managed services, and a seamless transition across these options.
"Customer focus and innovation have always been cornerstones of our business strategy and operating philosophy," said Ashu Roy, CEO of eGain. "We are pleased to be selected as a 2007 KMWorld Trend-Setting Product.”
Additional information on KMWorld’s Trend-Setting Product Award is available in the September issue of KMWorld magazine and can be viewed online at http://www.kmworld.com.
