Network reliability – a recognised leader
Westnet invests in robust, innovative, market leading technologies and equip staff with the tools and training they require to maintain an award-winning, top performing internet experience for our customers.
Infrastructure – a recognised leader
Westnet has over 212,000 telecommunications services activated nationwide, 50% of those are provided to members in WA. In 2007, Westnet implemented the Genesys and Virtual Hold Technology Contact Centre software, massively improving the organisation’s management of the volume of approximately 5,000 inbound calls 24 hours a day from its customers.
Genesys was selected for its ability to manage calls with that ‘human touch’ which sets Westnet apart. The system has helped maintain customer satisfaction at premium level as it allows members to leave a spoken word message in the call queue and retain their position in that queue for callback. The system also requires the first call back to be made by a staff member, further reinforcing outstanding person-to-person Westnet members are accustomed to. If that call cannot be answered, the system continues to call back, and as soon as the call back is successful, it is immediately allocated to a readily available staff member.
The implementation of this system saw Westnet the Winner of the Infrastructure category in the 2007 Western Australian Information Technology and Telecommunications Awards (WAITTA).
