Keysight Technologies Bolsters Technical Support Services

Keysight Technologies, Inc., a leading technology company that helps enterprises, service providers and governments accelerate innovation to connect and secure the world, announced it has expanded the company’s KeysightCare program to provide a growing customer base with fast, reliable access to priority technical support.
KeysightCare is a scalable and comprehensive support model offering best-in-class test and measurement expertise through a dedicated, proactive single point of contact for instruments, software, application measurements and test. This integrated support model is now available with five tiers to meet the specific hardware, software and technical support needs of customers.
On August 24, 2020, Keysight released the results of a third party survey that showed nearly all companies that design and develop electronic products experience costly and preventable delays related to test equipment configuration, maintenance or training issues. The survey found that 97% of respondents had experienced production delays that directly caused revenue loss to their business, and 90% of respondents said they would value access to testing expertise from outside the organization and that their test teams would work more efficiently with faster access to technical support experts and knowledge resources.
The newest offering in the KeysightCare portfolio is KeysightCare Technical Support, tailored to cover all Keysight instruments at a customer site, regardless of performance level, use model, warranty period or discontinuance status. Since November 2018, classic KeysightCare Assured is included with the majority of newly delivered Keysight instruments and software. However, customers still operate previously acquired equipment in R&D and manufacturing test setups, which require fast predictable access to technical support experts.
KeysightCare Technical Support provides for committed response time from a live technical support expert, as well as access to technical expertise through the KeysightCare portal and a knowledge center 24x7, which contains decades of R&D expertise in thousands of technical articles and programming examples on leading edge technologies.
“Our customers demand faster access to technical support when challenges arise in operating test and measurement instruments and software,” said Ted Burns, Global Director of KeysightCare. “Since Keysight implemented KeysightCare in 2018, we’ve been able to improve committed response times by 50 percent, while continuing to invest in our global support infrastructure, empowering our customers to mitigate project risk and get products to market faster. KeysightCare helps customers remove barriers to success through a committed, accessible, and proactive engagement with our measurement experts.”
