For this reason, it is essential to improve and optimize the service provided by the company’s call center, so as not to generate dissatisfied users.

But … But aren’t customers and users the same thing, and how do they differ?
User.
“Is a person who uses any type of third-party product or service on a regular basis with preset limitations.”
Customer.
“It is that person who generates a commercial transaction with another company or customer. He/she is loyal to the brand, the product and/or the service and uses it on a regular basis.”
Just as it happens in companies with customer service (SAC), in a customer service center (CAU), it is also the agents who are responsible for interacting with users to provide them with the information and/or services requested.
So, … What is a user service center?
“They are centers in charge of resolving incidents arising from the use of the product and/or service, identifying users’ information needs and guiding them to achieve their satisfaction and compliance, thanks to the quality attention they receive from the agents.”
Given this definition, it is essential that user satisfaction is positive. In the case of being negative, we must find out the factors that have caused a negative experience on the part of the user in order to improve the attention provided to the user through the company’s virtual switchboard.
