Wetsuit Outlet is Europe’s largest water sports clothing and equipment supplier. Before using eDesk, their systems were disjointed.

They had their tickets, live chat and phone all through different systems. There was no way to effectively assign tickets to different agents and no way to manage or record response times. By implementing a unified inbox, they were able to deliver enhanced efficiency and reduce their response time by 38%.

“With eDesk we have managed to reduce our second line response team in a way that helps the company really grow. Even with more marketplaces being introduced, we can keep the support team small.”
