GMT Corp., an industry leader in enterprise workforce and cash optimization solutions, today announced that Call Center Magazine named GMT Planet™ as a “2007 Product of the Year”, the industry publication’s highest honor. Competing with hundreds of call center solutions, GMT Planet was deemed the one that provided call center managers and agents with the most innovative, most useful, and most robust set of features.
The annual awards program recognizes companies whose products are well designed, original, functional, and cost effective. GMT Planet stands out because its use can be extended beyond the call center and into other functional areas of the enterprise, such as the back office, bank branch, or distribution center. With more and more companies trying to improve customer service in today’s demanding business landscape, competition among call center software and service suppliers has intensified; GMT’s award underscores the company’s ability to correctly read and appropriately respond to rapidly changing market dynamics.
“With its robust reporting features and easy-to-operate user interface, GMT Planet is setting the standard for workforce optimization,” said Keith Dawson, editorial director for Call Center Magazine. “The solution ensures that companies perform at their highest levels possible by empowering them to accurately monitor call center workforce requirements and deliver quality customer service to customers swiftly and accurately.”
In selecting “Product of the Year” winners, Call Center Magazine editors focused on how the different products function in real-world scenarios and asked if they enhance agent productivity, ease call center managers’ workloads, help companies increase revenue, and improve customer service – all areas in which GMT Planet excelled.
“We are honored to be selected by Call Center Magazine for this prestigious award,” said Simon Angove, chief executive officer of GMT. “This coveted industry award is a reflection of the dedication, foresight, and perseverance of GMT’s people in solving our clients’ continuously-evolving resource optimization challenges.”
