Chordiant, the Customer Experience Company™, Pioneers a New Standard for Enterprise Software, Creating Superior Customer Experiences New vision will transform the way businesses align and manage customer retention strategies to ignite higher levels of profitability across the enterprise CUPERTINO, CA - March 6, 2006—Chordiant Software, Inc. (Nasdaq: CHRD), the leading provider of Customer Experience (Cx™) software and services, today announced that it is pioneering a new standard for enterprise software. By providing technology that anticipates customer intentions and individually recommends actions to optimize the customer experience, Chordiant's Cx solutions help enterprises to deliver the best possible customer experience. Chordiant's market-leading position is underscored by the fact that it has recently been selected by leading global enterprises including Wachovia, ING, O2, Capital One and HSBC. To date, companies have struggled to engage with customers regarding their individual interests and choices in a dynamic, multidimensional way. Instead, most organizations rely on unsophisticated mass-marketing techniques, such as direct mail or email, which relate to customers based upon predefined criteria. This approach lacks the flexibility and intelligence to dynamically react to a real customer conversation. Today, businesses recognize the need for customer-centric transformation; aspire to inject the personal touch or individual treatment to each interaction; and acknowledge these areas as key to providing a strategic differentiation for the marketplace. Key industry analysts identify customer experience management as critical to a business' success. The top four CRM topics identified by analysts are: building and managing customer loyalty; creating a single view of the customer; creating a customer-centric enterprise; and managing/improving the customer experience. They point out that every experience is a valuable part of shaping brand perception. Companies that strive to effectively manage, measure and improve every single customer interaction are rewarded with higher customer retention and revenue. Chordiant's new vision enables customer experiences to become more personalized through a powerful combination of predictive models, business rules, behavioral characteristics and sophisticated decision logic. By blending insight into the customer with agile business processes, Chordiant Cx solutions increase operational productivity, customer loyalty and lifetime value for greater profitability. "We firmly believe that Chordiant's Cx solutions provide the ultimate customer experience for businesses today," said Steven Springsteel, CEO and President of Chordiant. "Our new vision raises the bar to where every business interaction becomes a personal experience. This strategy represents the next level of maturity for Chordiant from our strong leadership in business process management. Chordiant's vision is a watershed in customer-facing business applications and is the beginning of a new era for customer experience solutions." For both the business and consumer, Chordiant takes the interaction to new levels, resulting in:
