Deepanshu Singh is the founder of Neuron. Neuron7 addresses the core challenge faced by complex service
organizations: resolving customer issues is a struggle because knowledge is
spread across vast data sources and in the minds of individuals. Compounding
the issue, many service organizations are rapidly losing institutional
knowledge as employees retire or change careers. The Service Council noted that
workforce and talent shortages were the most significant external challenge
impacting service, with more than 45% of front line agents stating that they
did not plan to or were unsure about remaining in field service careers. These
persistent challenges impede successful service delivery, increase costs,
reduce uptime, and lead to lower overall customer satisfaction.
