Cost Center Challenges:

Many support organizations operate as cost centers, which limits their ability to generate profit and necessitates innovative approaches to service delivery.

Customer Satisfaction’s Role:

Positive support experiences directly correlate with contract renewals and revenue, challenging the view of support as merely a cost center.
