North America - Live Call Transfer

Message Summary

  • Discontinuing Live Call Transfer process in North America for global consistency.
  • Product specialists will select Service Requests for callback from work group queues.
  • Effective on Monday, October 5, 2009 at 10:00am EDT.

Today, Sun Software Technology Service Center (TSC) customers with Premium Software Support contracts and a Priority 1 (Server down) issue can request that their call be transferred to a support engineer. In these situations, customers are routed to engineers on 'Live Transfer' duty who may not be familiar with the product in question. In these cases, a callback is arranged with an engineer who knows the product.

Effective Monday, October 5, 2009 at 10:00am EDT, the Live Call Transfer process will be discontinued in North America. Priority 1 Service Requests will instead be routed to a work group queue, where a product specialist will pick up the Service Request and call the customer.

Discontinuing the Live Call Transfer process will ensure customers are contacted by an engineer capable of handling their issue within 15 minutes of the service request being opened for Priority 1 issues from Premium and Premium Plus support customers.. The Callback Task process has already proven to be successful in Europe and APAC, and we expect similar results in North America.
