In fact, IFS’s customer satisfaction numbers have increased for the fourth straight year. January’s IFS customer satisfaction survey found that 98 percent of customers were more than satisfied with IFS. This is truly impressive when you consider the nature of enterprise resource planning software.
“I am quite humbled and flattered to be a finalist for the 8th Annual Stevie® Awards for Women in Business,” IFS President and CEO Cindy Jaudon said. “The ability to work and collaborate closely with customers has been one of IFS’s main strengths over the years, so this is a very fitting award nomination for IFS. It wouldn’t be possible without the support of everyone within IFS who continues to provide outstanding service to our customers. My role is really just listening closely to customers, making sure customer satisfaction is a top priority and seeing that the right people and resources are available to our customers. This in turn drives customer retention, increased sales to the established customer base and makes us a more desirable and attractive company to do business with for our prospective customers.”
