The Customer Experience:

Eliminating the Maze

Customer expectations define our opportunities. They expect us to answer their questions, serve their needs, and make their lives easier.

The more complexity, friction, and barriers we eliminate from the buying journey, the more we're meeting these expectations.

The Hardware Refresh Opportunity

By introducing the hardware refresh motion, we not only accommodate the Customer Experience, but also fundamentally establish an automated retention program.

This enables the continued support of an existing machine’s lifecycle, or a bridge to the new machine in the install base— empowering you to improve the lifetime value of each Customer.

The Powerful Bond Between Refresh and Renewal

When it comes to a successful buying journey, all roads lead to the same destination—providing Customers with the right value at the right time. Together, refreshes and renewals provide more opportunities to reach Customers in a buying mindset.
