I shared a story of my own experience with open support versus closed support when my company moved from an open source platform to a proprietary platform on my blog: &lt;a href="http://www.williamhertling.com/2008/04/open-support-versus-closed-support.html" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank" title="http://www.williamhertling.com/2008/04/open-support-versus-closed-support.html"&gt;http://www.williamhertling.com/2008/04/open-support-versus-closed-support.html&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;I think Support 2.0 is key to building customer loyalty. After product purchase, one of the primary drivers that causes a customer to interact with the company again is support. The customer can have a bad "1.0" support experience, or they can have a great Support 2.0 experience - and become more loyal and more passionate.&lt;/p&gt;</description><dc:creator xmlns:dc="http://purl.org/dc/elements/1.1/">William Hertling</dc:creator><pubDate>Mon, 28 Apr 2008 01:08:59 -0000</pubDate></item><item><title>Re: Customer Support 2.0</title><link>http://altgate.com/blog/2008/02/customer-support-2-0.html#comment-1926682</link><description>&lt;p&gt;Furqan - Thanks for linking over and adding your thoughts to Support 2.0. I think some of the best folks involved in this new approach are the guys @ Get Satisfaction (&lt;a href="http://www.getsatisfaction.com)." rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank" title="http://www.getsatisfaction.com)."&gt;http://www.getsatisfaction.com).&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;</description><dc:creator xmlns:dc="http://purl.org/dc/elements/1.1/">Ben Yoskovitz</dc:creator><pubDate>Fri, 29 Feb 2008 11:16:48 -0000</pubDate></item></channel></rss>
