Customer connection

A technology to achieve universal connectivity

04
The services that HISPASAT offers allow telecommunications and audiovisual operators, as well as those institutions and companies that are looking for strong provision of communications, security and reliability, to have the only technology that is able to achieve universal connectivity.
This is why satellites play an essential role in the supply of many services as a complement to the terrestrial networks that cannot reach all geographical locations. Accordingly, satellites are a key factor in the fight against the digital divide.
HISPASAT offers its customers satellite capacity, for occasional and permanent use, on both sides of the Atlantic:

Broadcasting audiovisual content in Europe and America, where HISPASAT satellites have excellent coverage and allow signals to be broadcast in the most advanced formats.

From the deployment of internal communication networks to fleet management services, HISPASAT offers a multitude of communication solutions for different companies and public administrations. It allows the information society to be extended to the most inaccessible areas and provides the necessary response in emergency situations.

HISPASAT offers telecommunications operators coverage in Europe, America, North Africa and the Middle East so that they can roll out their services in a cost-effective manner.

With regard to customers, HISPASAT ensures the confidentiality, authenticity and traceability of the information and resources used in the provision of services, with a clear commitment to respond to the needs that may arise with quality, efficacy and reliability.
To achieve this, it is essential to understand the degree of customer satisfaction with the company. Therefore, HISPASAT makes specific channels of communication available to its customers, adapted to every necessity, and analyses their opinions from time to time:

Call center

Available 24/7 in three languages (Spanish, Portuguese and English), it has a high capacity for receiving calls in the majority of the countries where HISPASAT operates. It allows for tickets to be opened on behalf of customers, which facilitates monitoring from the beginning of the incident until its resolution. It also generates periodic internal reports that allow it to be evaluated.

Support Centre

Web portal on which HISPASAT customers can themselves open tickets to report possible service incidents and request any kind of information. They can then monitor this during its life cycle.

CRM
(Customer Relationship Management)

Internal tool that enables the management and control of business opportunities and the evolution of open, won and closed offers, giving greater coherence to the sales team’s activities and providing transparency and visibility internally.

Biennial customer satisfaction survey

Every two years, HISPASAT carries out a customer satisfaction survey. In 2019, the results were 82.1%, which is 1.1% below those obtained in 2017. This was influenced by lower participation levels and the decrease in assessments by customers whose annual turnover is €200,000. There was also a reduction in the assessments of some of the customer service tools, the modification of which is planned for next year.
