- * HOTNET - a LAN-Based Multi-User Caller Support System*
-
- Do you provide some type of "hotline" phone support -- perhaps
- from users of a software package, or maybe from business owners
- needing tax advice. You may be trying to trouble-shoot mechanical
- problems from lawn-mower dealers; perhaps you're part of a legislative
- committee that's explaining new laws introduced in the current
- session. Maybe you're just trying to collect feedback from people on
- a new product you've introduced.
-
- All of these scenarios share common business problems:
-
- 1) They're fielding questions from a wide body of
- end-users.
- 2) Many different people may be answering the phone.
- 3) These people may not know the "product" or
- "service" in great detail.
- 4) Many common questions are asked frequently.
- 5) The phone personnel may not know if a question
- has already been solved or not.
- 6) Managment needs some kind of way to track what
- kinds of questions and problems end-users have.
- 7) Management needs to know which problems are
- unresolved so they can concentrate resources to
- solve those problems.
- 8) Management needs a way to track the activity and
- performance of phone personnel.
-
- HOTNET, a PC-based multi-user shareware system, can help
- solve these business problems. HOTNET is network capable and
- supports NETBIOS record locking.
-
- HOTNET is designed to capture caller information to help
- phone personnel record and solve common problems and also to
- provide management with the necessary information to help make
- business decisions.
-
- If you are installing the archived version of HOTNET
- (HN.EXE), you may unarchive the system as follows:
-
- 1) Create the proper subdirectory on the target hard
- drive.
-
- 2) Make that drive/subdirectory current.
-
- (ex: F:\PUBLIC> MD HOTNET (create subdirectory)
- F:\PUBLIC> CD HOTNET (make it current)
- F:\PUBLIC\HOTNET>
-
- 3) Insert HOTNET diskette in disk drive.
-
- 4) Enter the following command (assumes using drive B):
-
- F:\PUBLIC\HOTNET> B:HN
-
- HN.EXE is a self-extracting version of HOTNET. It will
- extract the necessary HOTNET files and place them in
- the current drive\subdirectory.
-
- You will install the following files:
-
- HOTNET.EXE HOTNET.DOC PHONE.DBF PHONE.DBT
- PHONE1.NTX PHONE2.NTX PHONE3.NTX PHONE4.NTX
- REPORTS.RP1 RR.CNF RR.UDF RRC.OVL
- RRUN.EXE RRUNC.OVL RRUNTIME.EXE RRUNIN.DBF
- WWCUST.DBF REGISTER.DOC UPDATES.DOC
-
- (NOTE: Memory-resident version of Hotnet now available! Contact
