Activision Answers the Call of Duty® by Providing Great Customer Experiences

Activision, maker of popular games Call of Duty and Guitar Hero, uses RightNow CX to power its next generation social contact center. With RightNow CX, Activision’s agents not only efficiently respond to gamers’ requests via traditional interaction channels, they can monitor, listen and respond to gamers’ commentary via social media channels such as Twitter and Facebook to provide exceptional support. When Activision launched the latest version of Call of Duty, it was able to reduce email and phone traffic by 25 percent by enabling gamers to find answers via their preferred social channels.

Activision also delivers the information gamers need to help themselves via the phone so they can get back in the game as fast as possible. With RightNow CX’s interactive voice response (IVR) capabilities, 70 percent of gamers that call Activision are able to automatically access answers to help themselves without speaking to an agent.

In addition, RightNow has been an invaluable source of customer insight for Activision. By capturing support data across all channels, Activision is equipped with a rich source of actionable information to promptly identify and respond to customer concerns and development preferences, leading to a higher-quality product and a more satisfied customer.
