U.S. Cable Operator Will Benefit From Improved Call Center Agent Efficiencies, Resulting in a Differentiated Customer Experience

WALTHAM, Mass.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Netcracker Technology announced today that longstanding customer WOW! (WideOpenWest) has extended its relationship with Netcracker to provide a converged experience for its customer sales and care agents.
