In addition to receiving the overall highest ranking among e-Portals, AT&T BusinessDirect was acknowledged the leader for its Ordering, Network Management, Storefront and eBonding capabilities.
“For the fifth consecutive year, AT&T BusinessDirect remains supreme. The breadth of services and depth of capabilities make it one of the most complete suite of eServicing tools available in the industry,” said Jon Paisner, Yankee Group Senior Analyst and author of the report. “Customers now enjoy a fully integrated online self-service experience, incorporating the assets of the former AT&T, Bellsouth and SBC in addition to featuring the Premier Mobility platform incorporated within AT&T BusinessDirect.”
