(BELLEVUE, WA)
Adhost, a leading business Web site hosting and co-location facility, and Altrec.com, a premier online retailer for outdoor enthusiasts and active travel gear, today announced a partnership agreement to license Altrec’s proprietary “Scout” customer management system.
Adhost has just launched its own interactive support system enabled by the Scout software. In the coming weeks Adhost will begin licensing Altrec’s Scout software to its own hosting and co-location clients for use on their e-commerce sites.
The Scout customer management system allows customer service representatives (CSRs) and customers to directly communicate via any Web browser. Scout operates similar to online instant messaging software but is much more powerful. The Scout software allows CSRs to guide customers, by taking control of their browsers, to specific pages, information and resources anywhere on the World Wide Web.
“Altrec.com’s outstanding customer service is renowned throughout the Internet community,” says Will Riffle, President and CEO of Adhost. “We are delighted to utilize the Scout system in bringing Adhost’s online customer service to an even higher level. In addition, this partnership allows us to offer our clients a proven customer management system for their own Web sites.”
“The Scout system was created for our own use on Altrec.com two years ago, and it has since been refined through thousands of customer interactions,” says Shannon Stowell, Vice President of Business Development at Altrec.com. “Our customers rave about how great it is to have live online support to answer questions and we can quickly direct them to specific areas of Altrec.com or elsewhere on the Internet. We’re excited to work with Adhost to make the product available to other customer-centric companies.”
