Professional processes have been established and processing times reduced.
Benefits
Thanks to gominga, the Garmin customer support team can identify root causes for complaints, interact directly with users on Amazon, establish internal feedback loops and KPI reports, and make improvements in terms of marketing and product development. And at the same time reduce processing times.
