BENEFITS

Typical Customer Outcomes

Customer support gets harder to keep consistent as volume grows, channels multiply, and service expectations rise. Support and success leaders usually come to us to add coverage, lower cost-to-serve, keep quality steady across teams and locations, and get a clearer view of what is happening in every customer conversation.

More Coverage

Add business-hour, after-hours, multilingual, or 24/7 support without building every shift internally.

Lower Cost-to-Serve

Use nearshore, offshore, or blended delivery based on the work, the customer, and the service requirements.

Consistent Quality Across Channels and Locations

Dedicated QA, management, reporting, and clear service standards help keep the customer experience the same whether the conversation happens by phone, chat, email, or social.

Better Visibility Into Every Interaction

AI-assisted QA can review 100% of supported interactions, so managers see service gaps, compliance issues, and coaching needs earlier instead of waiting on a small sample.

OMNICHANNEL SUPPORT

One Customer Experience Across Every Channel

Customer support often involves more than answering a question. A warranty request may require a product lookup, troubleshooting, a replacement, or coordination with a service technician. Customers need someone to follow through, even when the conversation moves between phone, email, and chat. We build support around those needs and the channels your customers use.

Voice Support

Give customers direct access to trained agents for service questions, complex issues, and conversations where human support matters.

SERVICE DELIVERY OPTIONS

Find the Right Fit for Your Customer Support Operation

Some clients need a few people who can handle several types of customer requests. Others need a dedicated team or a fully managed service. We build around the work, skills, and coverage you need, with the flexibility to add people, services, or AI as those needs change.

Customer Support as a Service

You define the service. We take responsibility for delivery.

Hand off defined work such as warranty support, customer research, returns, replacements, technician coordination, or ongoing customer service. We manage delivery with agreed service levels, QA, and reporting.

Work Inside the Tools You Already Use

Our teams support client environments including Zendesk, Salesforce, HubSpot, Microsoft Dynamics, Freshservice, NICE, Genesys, Five9, RingCentral, and other client-specific platforms.

Before the team goes live, we align workflows, knowledge, service standards, escalation paths, QA criteria, reporting, and access requirements. That structure gives agents clear guidance and gives your team visibility into performance, recurring issues, and where customers are getting stuck.

RIGHTCX AI-ASSISTED OPERATIONS

The Right Mix of People and AI

AI can take on routine interactions, help agents while they work, and give managers visibility into every customer conversation. The right mix depends on the customer, the issue, and how much automation makes sense for your operation. We use AI where it improves speed and consistency and keep people involved where judgment and customer context matter.

RightCX

Our in-house RightCX platform adds AI directly into customer support delivery. It works inside your knowledge base, customer data, processes, and QA standards rather than adding another system for agents to manage.

Live Agent Assist

Surface knowledge, suggested responses, and customer context in real time so agents can resolve issues faster and more consistently.

Automated QA

Review 100% of supported interactions against your QA criteria and flag service gaps, compliance issues, and coaching opportunities earlier.

AI Agent

Answer appropriate customer questions using your knowledge base, with a clear path to a person when an issue needs human judgment.

GLOBAL SUPPORT

The Right Global Delivery Mix

Choose nearshore, offshore, or blended delivery based on customer needs, hours, languages, collaboration requirements, and cost.

Case Study

Scaling Customer Support Without Losing Quality

New Leaf needed to expand its appliance warranty support operations while keeping service quality consistent. Customer requests often involve warranty registrations, product lookups, research, and follow-up that can require coordination across several steps. As the business grew, New Leaf needed more people to handle that work without adding more strain to its internal teams.

The Functionary built an embedded customer service team in Mexico and El Salvador, supported by dedicated leadership and QA, that works alongside New Leaf’s own team in Texas. The team operates inside New Leaf’s management structure and follows the same service expectations as internal employees.

The addition of dedicated QA helped close a quality gap that had previously put outsourced teams 10 to 15 points behind internal operations. Today, quality scores are around 92%, while agent utilization increased from roughly 80% to 85% over a three-month period.
