A Wish List
Becky issues different Certificates for various departments, and she uses Choices' custom Certificate software to issue them. When she first started using it, she had some specific needs that needed to be addressed: “I spoke to Pat at Choices, and she was very helpful in arranging to have the product customized for us.”
Pat is a key member of Choice’s Technical Support team. She recalls: “Becky called to ask for some help about optimizing the product features. We set up a conference call tutorial session that showed her some of the bells & whistles. We also asked her to give us a wish list, and then created a custom file she could use.”
Custom Solutions
The end result: “Choices developed it very quickly. It’s user friendly and works really well. Issuing the Certificates is easy to do and to change,” says Becky.
“We pride ourselves on customer service,” adds Pat. “We’re always ready to help. If a customer tells us what they want, we have a strong knowledge of the products to develop a solution that works for them.”
