Corey JamesThe story
A request arrives by email, chat or a social inbox. The agent opens a case and looks for the answer in the help content, past cases and the product's own code. It replies in the channel the customer used. If the problem is a defect, it files the issue for engineering with the evidence attached and tells the customer when the fix ships. Response times are tracked against the target.
