Eliminating Customer Journey Friction with Preventive Support
Overview
Removing friction from customer journeys with preventive support care is how leading SaaS businesses increase renewals and expansions.

Preventive care comes from a combination of both support agents and success managers taking action and also from AI-automated engagement within the product.
