The Cloud has been revolutionizing the world of technology since 2010. Since the beginning of the current decade, most new software companies have been operating on a Software-as-a-Service (SaaS) model. So much so that giants like IBM, Oracle, Microsoft, and SAP have all switched to a SaaS model. This has given birth to a new kind of metric to judge success in this digitally charged world: Customer Success.
Traditionally, before SaaS, when a user bought an application, the user was responsible for its installation, testing, monitoring, patches, and upgrades. As the world moves more towards the convenience and flexibility of SaaS, companies have adapted to recurring revenue business models to grow. Organizations need to become dedicated to being ‘hands-on’ whilst managing customer relationships as strategic assets, or risk losing out to the increased competition.
As such, Customer Success as a metric has emerged as an all-consuming unit, imperative for business. Customer Service Management (CSM) acts as an amalgamation of different business functions and activities including marketing and sales, training, and support services that take care of the every whim of a customer.
Under the philosophy of customer success, customer acquisition is only the beginning of a long-term data driven strategy that focuses on customer satisfaction not just till the point-of-sale, but well beyond, to instill customer loyalty. In a SaaS defined world, the cloud vendors assume all the responsibility of delivering a great experience.
Companies have understood for a while now that new technology adoption often severely disrupts cultural and behavioral norms that an organization deals with on a day-to-day basis. If this adoption does not take into account the experience of the users, no matter how powerful the application itself is, it will fail to deliver any value to its users. Thus, Customer Service Management allows your clients to achieve their desired business outcomes with the help of technology.
