Case study

Adobe Challenges

In an effort to reduce costs in low revenue, non-English speaking markets, Adobe made the decision to revert customer service phone calls to English.​

The company was not only interested in cutting call center costs while providing superior multilingual customer support, but also in providing ways to empower customers to find user support in their language via self-help and user forums online.

SYSTRAN translate Server

Adobe uses SYSTRAN translate Server to increase translator productivity, and SYSTRAN.io for real-time machine translation.​

This improved multilingual self-help support and the translation of online product and service materials.

Benefit

Increase satisfaction for multilingual customers while reducing costs​

In non-English markets, bilingual agents are only available for limited hours. Customer service calls arrive round the clock, leading to bilingual agents using callbacks, email, and chat, which couldn’t provide real-time service to all customers.

Hence, the need arose to translate more of Adobe’s content to enhance customer support and satisfaction for multilingual customers. This required making additional help and support content available in languages not covered by live agents, with a focus on speed and budget constraints.

Machine Translation, vital asset for global customer service efficiency

Adobe discovered that Machine Translation is understandable, useful and powerful in enabling multilingual customers to find their answers. ​

 

Adobe continues to use SYSTRAN.io to translate product and service content in order to:

  • improve customer satisfaction for multilingual customers, ​
  • lower call center costs, ​
  • and enable users to access support in their own language via multilingual help and support content.

4.28/5
