Voyager Launches Customer Experience Squad for Flagship VoIP Solution

Voyager has announced an initiative to create significant improvements in the customer experience of our flagship business VoIP solution, Voyager Voice.

In reflection of our Agile structure and practices, we’ve established a Customer Experience Squad for Voyager Voice. Comprising specialist, hand-selected staff across all departments, the Squad’s sole mission is to create and maintain a smooth, seamless, pleasant experience for Voyager Voice customers.

The establishment of the Squad is a response to extensive customer research in which we surveyed our business customers and wholesale and dealer partners. A focus of this research was on the customer onboarding experience for Voyager Voice.

“The feedback from our customer research showed us that we have struggled to make Voyager Voice a great customer experience,” said Alf Wallis, Voyager Chief Executive Officer. “This is simply unacceptable, especially as we pride ourselves on our excellent customer service. It is our goal to make our customers’ lives as easy as possible, which is why we have taken immediate action by forming this Squad.”

To create a great Voyager Voice customer experience, we started with improving internal communications. As the Squad is a cross-functional group of people that are all deeply involved in Voyager Voice – from first point of contact through to onboarding and ongoing use of the solution – each department will be able to communicate quickly and efficiently.

Pictured above are the Voyager specialists from sales, service delivery, provisioning, credit services, billing, and the NOC during a Squad meeting. Team members are spread across our four offices.

We have also created a new role for an Onboarding Specialist, who will oversee the end-to-end customer journey for Voyager Voice to ensure a great experience. This specialist will be customers’ main point of contact for any questions or issues during onboarding.

“This year, we are completely focusing on our customer experience,” said Deidre Steyn, Voyager Chief Commercial Officer. “The Voyager Voice Customer Experience Squad is our first step in improving our customers’ overall experience. The Squad will ensure that we not only smooth out and fix the issues that are currently a problem, but also continue to implement improvements in future.”

The first focus for the Squad has been on streamlining Voyager Voice processes and responding quickly to urgent matters that arise. Long term, the Squad will focus on improving customer interactions, behind the scenes processes, and system improvements.

“All of these things combined,” said Steyn, “will lead to a much better experience – internally for our team, but most importantly – for our customers.
