Mumbai, India - Rediff.com India Pvt.

In March 2015, Rediff.com responded to shopping related queries on social media in less than two hours, as opposed to the average of 1.5 to 6 days taken by industry competitors. The Company also recorded a quick turnaround time for query resolution, reaching a solution in less than 5 days.

The system enables classification of queries and batch processing to deliver responses to similar queries simultaneously. The essential information is extracted and provided to the service agent instantly, thereby facilitating faster responses and query resolution, and in turn satisfying customers.
