New Buzzient Products Add Publishing and Chat to Social Media Efforts

BOSTON, Jan. 11, 2012 /PRNewswire/ -- Buzzient, a leading social media platform company, today announced 2 new products: Buzzient Publish2Social and Social2Chat. These new products give customers more ways to engage with customers and, when combined with Buzzient Enterprise, build out more compelling social media programs for sales, service, and loyalty initiatives.

"Buzzient is focused on bringing a comprehensive social media solution for the enterprise and both of these products improve the customer experience over social media channels," remarked Timothy B. Jones, Buzzient Founder and CEO.  "Publish2Social makes it easy for organizations to manage outbound social media programs and Social2Chat directs social media to online chat agents for real-time communications. Both of these products were developed after overwhelming demand from existing and prospective customers."

"We're seeing 2012 start out with tremendous demand for social media solutions tailored for the enterprise," says Jones. "Whereas passive listening was vogue with first generation monitoring companies of 5 years ago, today sophisticated corporations using social media require integration of social data with CRM, ERP, HCM and other core applications. Furthermore, corporations need to engage on the social channels with end customers, hence why outbound publishing and chat integration are key requirements. We expect that 2012 will only see heightened interest in these solutions."

"Companies have to figure out how to leverage social media to stay current," says Peter Goldmacher, Managing Director with the Cowen Group. "But activity on social media isn't necessarily productivity on social media and the best run companies will make that distinction by understanding social in the context of their daily business operations."
