HCL Client Advocacy

A customer-centric approach is the foundational element of the HCL Products business philosophy. We strive to deliver a high-touch, highly interactive approach to customer relationships, and to provide the

greatest value and service to customers through strong connections to our product experts.

More cohesive and collaborative approach to the client relationship

Incessant support for client's product usage and business needs

More frequent touchpoints with product roadmaps

Proactive communication on product news and updates

Deeper understanding of the client's business and challenges


Client Advocates vs Paid Services

6

Similar to the IBM Lab Advocate program, the HCL Client Advocate program is a free service meant to provide an excellent client experience and build client relationships; it is NOT meant to replace

traditional support, lab services engagements, or other paid services.

Client Advocates Are…

• A primary point of contact for the client

• Advocates for the client within HCL

• Advocates for the product within the client

• The person with the most visibility and connection to the client – facilitating a 360-degree view of the client

• A knowledge source for other HCL functions to ensure a cohesive approach to client interactions

• A channel to avoid critical situations and drive customer satisfaction

Client Advocates Are Not…

• Support engineers meant to resolve PMRs

• Lab services consultants

• An alternative to any paid programs or offerings

• Escalation managers for critical situations (though they can help escalate critical situations)

• Dedicated development support for a client

Evolution & Roadmap


Our VALUE for YOUR modern Workload Automation

IBM Workload Automation joins its foundation of workload data with analytics to improve productivity and to drive new value

✓ Dynamically manage critical paths

✓ Apply analytics to data to predictively determine scheduled job durations, trends and cycles

✓ Simulate planned and unplanned events in an interactive Gantt view to analyze their impact

Learn & OptimizeTwo steps to Intelligent Automation

✓ From a single point of control, automate end-to-end workloads that span hybrid environments and resources

✓ Use APIs (REST, SOAP, java...) to schedule and monitor workloads

✓ Utilize flexibile deployment – delivered On Premises or Software as a Service

✓ Simplify and standardize workflow modeling by using Self Service development with +25 business adaptors

✓ Advance changes across lifecycle stages (Development – QA – Production) by using embedded promotion

✓ Securely accelerate development & changes by adopting fine grained access controls and centralized auditing

✓ Continuously deliver changes, keeping control of scheduling versions that you can compare and roll back

Provide reliable automationon the Hybrid continuum

Enable business agilitywith DevOps capabilities

An intuitive web-based user interface provides:

✓ Modeling, by using graphical views

✓ Monitoring, with dashboards & drill-down views, including job output logs

✓ Optimizing with a «what-if» Gantt view

✓ Reporting with history and statistical analysis

Smart & Simple
