As everything in our lives speeds up, the need to provide timely customer service is more important than ever to retain customers and is key to standing out in a jungle of competitors. You may be reluctant about outsourcing, but the level of quality that you need can be achieved by picking the right SaaS support services provider (BPO).

What is Saas customer support outsourcing?

And other frequently asked questions (FAQ)

What is SaaS customer support outsourcing? 
SaaS stands for “software as a service” which means that the software is licensed on a subscription basis and is centrally hosted. If you are over the age of 25 or 30, you might remember a time when buying software meant buying a CD-rom that you would insert in your computer to read and use the software. Now, most software is accessed from the internet without the need of any hardware. Examples of popular SaaS companies include DropBox, Salesforce, Google (Maps, Suite, Search) and Slack. 

SaaS companies may not have physical products but that doesn’t mean they don’t have customers or users who need help - just like any software, SaaS products can be complex and sometimes have glitches so customer support and education provided by a customer service team is foundational to the success of many SaaS products. 

How much does it cost to outsource support services for SaaS companies?
Every company is unique and pricing will depend on the size and structure of the team you build. You can find baseline pricing on our Pricing Page and more specific pricing (including our rate card) when you reach out to our Solution Design Team.
