Subscriber Support
Since your relationship with your customer is essential; the THINK Enterprise system is designed to be customer centric. The Customer Service module facilitates a single view of the customer where you can manage a customer’s address(s), orders, payments, service feedback, demographics, audit history, etc. If customer self-service is essential for your business, the Web Service allows companies to expose controlled management capabilities directly to their subscribers. |

Reporting
THINK Subscription has integrated Business Objects Crystal Reports into the product for production of reports and other system outputs. The product ships with a large variety of pre-configured reports with other reports available from a report repository available on the Support web site.

The relational database is fully documented and made available with each product release or update. |
