ETAdirect

ETAdirect is powered by a patented algorithm that continuously learns mobile employees' work patterns, analyzes them statistically and uses pattern recognition to accurately predict an employee's time of arrival at a customer's location and the length that each job/appointment will take, thereby providing enhanced accuracy for planning and customer experience management. ETAdirect typically narrows the wait window to less than 60 minutes. Using time-based predictions, ETAdirect can communicate to consumers the exact time that a field service employee will arrive via voice/IVR, email, text/sms, Twitter and other communications channels, reducing customer frustration, wasted time and inquiry calls to service provider call centers. The software is delivered to businesses over the Internet using a software as a service/eSaaS model.

ETAdirect is currently used by seven of the top ten cable television companies in North America, including Cox Communications, major broadband operators in Europe, such as Virgin Media and ONO (Spain)., global communications companies such as Telefonica and global utility companies like E.ON.
