– Wind River, the global leader in Device Software Optimization, is

using Oracle(R) WebCenter Suite, Oracle Universal Content Management,

and Oracle E-Business Suite to improve customer service while helping

to build valuable long-term relationships with its customers.

– As a result of its Oracle deployment, Wind River has significantly

increased satisfaction with its customer support portal and reduced

the average number of clicks it takes customers to find information by

50 percent. Wind River anticipates that resolving customer concerns,

answering customer questions and empowering customer self-service

online will result in considerable savings.

– Using Oracle WebCenter Suite as its customer support portal, Wind

River can integrate customer information from Oracle E-Business Suite

with content, such as product manuals, FAQs, and product downloads,

customers have access to the latest and most relevant support

information for the products they own.

– Wind River enables its customers to personalize their support

experience and receive updates regarding patches, application notes,

and other relevant content. The company plans to enhance its

personalization with WebCenter Suite’s Enterprise 2.0 features and is

evaluating the use of RSS feeds, discussion threads and user-driven

recommendations.

– In addition to providing a personalized interface for each customer

with Oracle WebCenter Suite, Wind River is using Oracle Universal

Content Management to accelerate the process of adding new material to

the site, standardize the look and feel of documentation across its

entire product line, and help ensure only the most up-to-date versions

of content are available.

– Oracle Consulting Services worked with Wind River on the successful

customer support portal deployment, which is the most recent

implementation in Wind River’s ongoing standardization on Oracle

software. The company has also implemented Oracle’s Siebel CRM,

Oracle Customer Data Hub, Oracle SOA Suite, Oracle’s Hyperion

Planning, Oracle Business Intelligence Enterprise Edition, Oracle

Business Intelligence Applications, Oracle Single Sign-On and Oracle
