ANOTHER TIME WARNER CABLE DIVISION SELECTS
POINTSERVE SOLUTION
Leading Software Vendor Rapidly Gaining Broadband Market Share
Austin, TX – April 10, 2002 – Time Warner Cable’s Columbia, SC division has selected PointServe’s best-of-breed Wireless Dispatch product for mobile workforce management. PointServe’s ability to rapidly deliver enterprise solutions will provide hard ROI to Time Warner, by speeding attainment of business goals in key areas including customer service levels and field productivity.
“After examining and comparing PointServe with alternative vendors, we found PointServe’s Wireless Dispatch best able to create competitive advantage and affect our business quickly – with minimum operational impact,” says Jeffrey Hirsch, Time Warner Columbia’s Vice President and General Manager. ”We expect this initiative to deliver quick results.”
“We are pleased to extend our relationship with Time-Warner to the Columbia cable system,” says Ed Powell, president and CEO of PointServe. “Our map-based user interface concept is a powerful differentiator that will let Time Warner dispatchers make better use of their time. We automate the majority of their everyday decisions, and then provide them with the visualization tools they need for more complex decision-making.”
PointServe’s rapid deployment approach utilizes pre-configured systems that “plug-and-play” with Time Warner’s CSG billing system and Cingular wireless network. Complete system adoption by Time Warner dispatchers and field technicians will be supported by PointServe’s packaged deployment services, which include change management processes and operations-based training.
