Radian6 is a solid tool that sets you up for success!

At CDW, we use Radian6 as our "listening tool" for mentions of our brand, products and competitors. Radian6 is used mostly with the Social Media Project Management team and Customer Service. With the Customer Service organization we are looking for "cries" for help or customers that may be experiencing a negative customer experience with our company. We have been able to indentify when pricing issues were taking place on our website my monitoring tweets, step in on blogs where customers were voicing opinions and experiences about our company, and even thank posted who would post positive recognition about our organization. For us, the main problems it addresses are the most urgent when customers aren't recieving calls back from our co-workers or not getting their desired resolution. The Social web allows customers an easy outlet to get help instead of calling a call center or sending an email. Radian6 helps us get access to those posts right away rather than waiting for a customer to have time to stop and email or call. Not to mention, the marketing tool that it creates for our customer service. People see us posting back publically to these posters, offering our services and wanting to help. Radian6 helps us maintain our presense of wanting to provide an unmatched customer experience to all of our customers.
