SALT LAKE CITY, Utah, Dec. 28, 2011 (SEND2PRESS NEWSWIRE) — IDS, a mortgage document preparation vendor, has installed a SaaS-based social customer service platform from Assistly, a recent acquisition by Salesforce.com, into its back-office operations to improve responsiveness to customer inquiries.
Described as “an instant customer-service help desk built for the cloud,” Assistly is designed to enable small- to medium-sized businesses to set up and deliver social customer-service quickly and efficiently.
