Nuance Mobile Care Available for T-Mobile USA Customers

T-Mobile Deploys Nuance Mobile Care Solution to Deliver Improved Customer Experience, Operational Excellence in Customer Self-Care

BURLINGTON, MA, – Nuance Communications, Inc. (Nasdaq: NUAN) announced that T-Mobile USA, one of the fastest growing providers of wireless voice and data services, is deploying Nuance’s Mobile Care solution on select T-Mobile handsets.

The new application will enable T-Mobile to provide its customers with a more intuitive, user-friendly experience, allowing them to automatically resolve common problems. T-Mobile customers can now address such issues as diagnosing and repairing configuration problems, along with making account and billing inquiries – all on their mobile phones. Pilots and trials in both the U.S. and Europe have proven customers’ preference for on-device self-service.

“T-Mobile works toward delivering exceptional service to every customer, every day,” said Warren McNeel, vice president of product development at T-Mobile USA. “Nuance Mobile Care gives us the ability to provide a superior customer service experience and offers our customers an easy way to learn about and use advanced services, right from the screen of their phone.”

“The growing complexity in devices and data service technologies has made it challenging for wireless operator customer support and made it more difficult for subscribers to discover beneficial services,” said J. Gerry Purdy, Ph.D., vice president and chief analyst, Mobile & Wireless Communications at Frost & Sullivan. “Nuance Mobile Care represents an excellent solution for T-Mobile that enables their customers to solve – right on the device - many of the common problems they encounter, from checking their account balance and paying bills to upgrading their data plans and setting up email.”

“T-Mobile is known for its great service, which reflects the company’s ongoing commitment to meeting the needs of their customers.” said Mikael Berner, vice president and general manager for Nuance Mobile Care. “With our Mobile Care solution, the bar has been raised for quality customer service, helping companies reach the next plateau in customer satisfaction. Devices can now solve problems and answer questions more quickly and easily than ever before.”

Nuance Mobile Care solutions can be embedded on a customer’s mobile device over-the-air (OTA) or installed by the manufacturer. The interactive experiences, such as paying a bill, new feature tutorials or relevant service discovery can be created by the operators and pushed OTA to any device that supports Nuance Mobile Care. The product suite enables the delivery of interactive promotions, the resolution of most customer support problems, and allows operators to deliver a branded service experience to their subscribers.
