Samsung augments customer experience by using queuing solutions

Samsung service centers are very integral touch points for the company as they deal in repair, returns and warranty assurances for all Samsung products. A considerable number or stores faced numerous issues such as long waiting lines and unstructured queues, thus making the customer experience less rewarding and frustrating.

After several meetings between Wavetec’s Customer Experience specialists and Samsung SDS Europe & Dubai officials, Wavetec designed a customized mechanism to control and manage customer footfall at 19 distributor service centers. These branches were located in UAE, Kuwait, Palestine, Jordan, Bahrain, Qatar, Lebanon, Saudi Arabia, Kenya and Nigeria.

These installations were comprised of an entire ecosystem of Wavetec’s queue management solutions such as touch screen kiosks, counter display unit, web based teller application, and Donatello digital signage solution. This solution enabled easy navigation and enhancement of customer journey when visiting a service center. Queue management system installed is now integrated with Samsung’s existing system coupled with Wavetec’s reporting database to display real-time queue information. Their existing reporting system is now integrated with Wavetec’s reporting database to get the accurate information and also to fetch ticketing and queue information

The new queue management system is a complete enterprise solution for Samsung service centers. Real-time queue reports can be accessed through the centralized system installed at the head office and can monitor key performing indicators such as wait time, service time and no. of people waiting in the queue. Moreover system generates real-time alerts if service levels are not met, thus triggering an immediate action to enhance customer experience. This information coupled with Wavetec’s technological solutions allows Samsung to take a much higher competitive advantage globally.
