“Being ranked consecutively as the sole PC vendor to be number one in laptops and desktops demonstrates firsthand the determined focus we’ve applied to delivering superior products with the technologies and innovations that make a difference to customers,” said Peter Hortensius, senior vice president, Think Product Group, Lenovo. “We’ve coupled our ThinkPad laptops and ThinkCentre desktops with strong technical phone support and expanded service offerings to create a leading enterprise PC technology solution.”
High Marks for Quality and Reliability
In the reports, Lenovo earned competitive strength distinctions for hardware reliability satisfaction in 14 reporting periods since 1Q 2005 – four times that of any competitor. Additionally, during the second half of 2009, Lenovo became the only PC vendor to earn a rating of 6.1 or higher.
“We’d identified several areas that are key to customer satisfaction,” said Jon Lindy, president, TBR. “They are customer delight, stability, solid quality and reliability leadership, strong customer support and strengthening value propositions. Lenovo has built a foundation of excellence in all of these categories, which adds up to a compelling PC offering for business customers.”
Technical Support
The reports also award high satisfaction scores to the ThinkPad laptops and ThinkCentre desktops for high quality technical support, including phone support and quick turnaround time for depot/on-site repairs. Lenovo has expanded its service offerings to most recently include ThinkPlus Priority Support, which provides 24×7 technical phone support, priority call routing to advanced technical experts, expedited escalation management processes, web-based service call tracking tools and more. ThinkPlus Priority 4 includes the services in ThinkPlus Priority Support as well as on-site response time for parts and field technicians within four hours of a service call.
