CHICAGO, IL -- (Marketwire) -- 01/28/13 -- Mattersight Corporation (NASDAQ: MATR) today announced that TMC has named Mattersight's Behavioral Analytics service as a CUSTOMER 2012 Product of the Year Award winner.

Mattersight's Behavioral Analytics service includes solutions for Predictive Behavioral Routing, Employee Performance Management, and Predictive Customer Analytics. Mattersight recently announced a new trial program of its innovative Predictive Behavioral Routing solution. Predictive Behavioral Routing identifies the optimal customer/employee pairing for each individual caller based upon communication styles, personality mapping, and behavioral characteristics. This information is utilized by the existing routing architecture to match customers with the best available employee, thus increasing the likelihood of a behavioral connection. As a result, companies are capable of driving an immediate 10%-50% reduction in costs, improvement in sales, reduction in attrition, improvement in first call resolution, or increase in customer satisfaction or Net Promoter Scores® (NPS®).

"Mattersight was selected to receive a 2012 Product of the Year Award for its achievement in advancing customer experience management technologies. Mattersight's Behavioral Analytics service has demonstrated excellence as well as provided significant ROI for the companies that use it," said Rich Tehrani, CEO, TMC.
