Customer experience

Customer Experience Management, CEM

Ensuring the best experience your infrastructure can deliver

Customer Experience Management (CEM) is the main driver of Digis Squared’s Managed Services delivery approach. Traditionally, network nodes and network KPIs drove and were at the heart of services and operations assurance – but as services have become more complex, and data consumption has been driven by OTT applications, this approach no longer works.

Unpredictable impacts of the COVID-19 pandemic, and extreme weather events due to the climate crisis, are having a significant impact on user behaviour, and in parallel customers expect (and demand) that customer experience and the quality of the service they receive is maintained or even improved – when their only contact with the outside world is over the internet, customers become increasingly impatient.

In this context, capacity management is becoming even more critical to both service providers and civil society in general, and it requires close monitoring of the network resources to ensure best utilisation. Traffic movement and evolution is changing significantly, in patterns we have not experienced before, and now requires an advanced methodology that utilises AI and ML for predicting traffic increase and thus optimising CAPEX investments.

Typically, our CEM work with operators and service providers addresses,

Service Operations Centre (SOC): using AI to assess multiple factors (customer segment, location, handset, OTT behaviour etc), this system analyses faults; assesses commercial, technical and customer experience impact; diagnoses cause and identifies solution; creates, prioritises and assigns trouble tickets.
Value-Based Optimisation (VBO) methodology & VIP assurance: ensuring the customer experience at sensitive locations (airports, HQs), and for client accounts and VIPs is monitored and handled with the commercial priority your business has assigned.
Insights and reporting: our methodology ensures customers have a dedicated insights dashboard (KPIs, KQIs nd Customer QoE for voice, data and OTT), as well as the reports necessary to meet regulatory reporting requirements.
