Symbol provides its customer base with broad-based package for support called SymbolCare. Symbol chose Service Hub to upgrade its existing systems, particularly in the areas of parts logistics and repair, and serve as the technology platform for delivering this service over the internet. Symbol's application will use mService Gateway to enable its approximately 75 field representatives to log information about parts, expenses and calls made on customers. SymbolCare over the internet, called MySymbolCare, is in the process of being tested at six customer and partner locations. Symbol plans to implement this application for its base of 5,500 customers and partners. Using Service Hub, Symbol will be able to integrate information from third-party call centers and financial applications, as well as from the supply chain and repair center modules of our Service Suite that Symbol previously purchased from us. Service Hub interfaces to Symbol's existing application, will allow these applications to be phased out in a gradual fashion, rather than forcing an abrupt and costly conversion. Using Service Hub, Symbol expects to reduce the number of call center requests, improve management of spare parts and increased field workforce efficiency.
