Zappix is pleased to announce the Greater New England launch of its free app for Android and iPhone devices.

Boston, MA -- (SBWire) -- 03/15/2013 --Zappix, the Mobile Portal and one-stop Customer Service Technology company, is pleased to announce the Greater New England launch of its innovative, free app for Android and iPhone devices. Now, for Boston and the surrounding region, Zappix is able to dramatically reduce the waiting and frustration smartphone users experience when attempting to reach customer service and resolve issues. “This launch is a great moment for us and our visually-oriented approach to customer service,” said Zappix Vice President of Marketing, Gal Steinberg. “Compared to audio-only prompts, the Zappix application’s easy-to-navigate visual menus provide a much faster path to any given customer service destination.”

A user simply selects a company to contact from the Zappix menu of participating organizations. You can also simply dial any company and, if Zappix supports it, the appropriate visual menu automatically appears. A convenient progress bar displays the estimated connection time. Once connected, the user simply browses the visual menus to find the service or information needed. The result, time and again, is an enhanced, streamlined customer service experience.

“What is so attractive about Zappix is its intuitive, feature-rich functionality and flexibility,” said Avner Schneur, President and CEO of the investment group, Kormeli LLC, which has provided Zappix with business expertise and funding. “It’s really a one-stop app for customer service, where you can skip annoying voice menus and reach resolution quickly in a number of convenient ways.”

The array of customer service choices provided by Zappix are extensive. They include accessing information from automated menus; posting to a company’s Facebook page; linking to the main company website; following smart links to web pages on a mobile site; tweeting and getting support via Twitter; contacting customer service via email; and receiving special offer and alert messages.

“Zappix continues to rapidly expand its number of users and gain support from more and more business and government organizations at local and national levels. That’s because companies and agencies are quickly recognizing the app’s ability to improve overall satisfaction levels and brand image perceptions while reducing customer service costs,” said Shay Artzi, Ph.D, the CTO of Zappix.

Users can download the free Zappix app for Android or iPhone devices by visiting the Zappix.com website. Companies and agencies interested in leveraging Zappix with their existing customer service should access the Zappix Visual Menus Solution page. As Zappix continues to roll out beyond New England and throughout the North American market, look for new companies supported by the app, which will be regularly featured on the Zappix website Update page.

Zappix is available for download from the app store - Zappix for iPhone and Google Play - Zappix for Android or from the Zappix website.
