Newly Enhanced Help Desk Services Provide Pharmaceutical Sales
Representatives and Home Office Unparalleled, Multi-Channel
Support in the Field
Dendrite International, Inc. (NASDAQ: DRTE), a leading provider of sales, marketing, clinical and compliance solutions for the life sciences industry, today announced the launch of its Integrated Support Center, offering industry leading, pharmaceutical-specific sales support services. Unlike a traditional help desk, Dendrite's Integrated Support Center features a Customer Interaction Hub to enable service integration, history tracking and linkage across multiple service channels, and continues to be backed by pharmaceutical industry-dedicated service experts who on average handle over three million calls per year, worldwide.
Dendrite's Integrated Support Center enables problem resolution through its easily accessible channels ranging from Interactive Voice Response (IVR), web self-service, chat and email to phone. With these newly enhanced, integrated features, sales representatives can get the right answers to the simplest or the most complex questions through the right channel.
Dendrite's pharmaceutical industry-trained expert personnel form the critical underpinning of the Integrated Support Center. This enables Dendrite to quickly and effectively resolve issues that range from the simplest password reset and Internet connectivity to the more complex physician call plans, sample management and regulatory compliance.
"Today's pharmaceutical landscape is heavily reliant on new, integrated technologies that enable the sales representative to focus on building relationships with the physicians rather than dealing with administrative tasks," said Dave Escalante, vice president of product management at Dendrite. "Approximately 73 percent of all Dendrite support calls involve process diagnostic issues that require expert human interaction."
Dendrite's Integrated Support Center is backed by decades of pharmaceutical industry experience. Resolving over three million global sales support calls annually for large, mid- and emerging pharmaceutical companies has enabled Dendrite to deliver greater than industry average first call resolution.
"The new capabilities customers can leverage through the Integrated Support Center reflect Dendrite's commitment to creating adaptive and leading-edge solutions designed to improve pharmaceutical sales and marketing productivity," said Joe Ripp, president and COO at Dendrite. "Helping our customers meet their business challenges has been and will continue to be a top priority, and we are confident that the Integrated Support Center will continue to evolve to support the growing needs of the pharmaceutical industry."
