SUNNYVALE, CA--(Marketwired - Jan 16, 2014) - eGain (NASDAQ: EGAN), the leading provider of cloud-based customer engagement solutions, today announced that SAP has certified the integration of eGain Knowledge with SAP CRM Interaction Center. The solution will enable businesses to harness the combined power of SAP CRM and eGain's top-rated knowledge management capabilities to provide smart, accurate, and consistent customer service.

"Customer service managers agree that the right knowledge delivered to the customer or agent at the right time in the service resolution process is critical to a successful interaction. When done correctly, deeper knowledge can be used to personalize an interaction, increase customer satisfaction, reduce call handle time, and make operations more efficient," write Kate Leggett and Art Schoeller in "Forrester TechRadar™ For AD&D Pros: Contact Center Solutions For Customer Service, Q2 2013" (April 17, 2013).
