The importance of Business Intelligence in telecommunication has grown more than ever with the continuous growth in data as telcos ventured into new domains or launch new services.

Customer issues and complaints are always going to be a challenge for telecom operators. A Business Intelligence solution can provide process improvements to provide support and service. Customer care representatives can up their service for the most common customer complaints, finding stats on the complaints that customers waited on the phone longest about or even identifying support questions by email that took them the longest to respond.
