Riverbed Receives Certification From J.D. Power and TSIA for Excellence in Global Customer Service and Support for Third Consecutive Year

SAN FRANCISCO, CA — (Marketwired) — 09/24/13 — Riverbed Technology (NASDAQ: RVBD), the application performance company, announced today that the company has received certification under the J.D. Power 2013 Certified Technology Service and Support Program. This certification acknowledges excellence in delivering outstanding service and support on a worldwide basis to Riverbed customers. This is the third consecutive year Riverbed has received this distinction for providing customers with “An Outstanding Customer Service Experience.”

Jointly developed by J.D. Power and the Technology Services Industry Association (TSIA), the program evaluates overall customer satisfaction and helps technology support organizations increase their efficiency and effectiveness in technical service and support. The certification also helps businesses identify those companies that have demonstrated service and support excellence before selecting which technology products to purchase.

“Riverbed-s customers have once again voiced their opinion of the company as a top-tier, customer-focused organization. By passing this rigorous certification program for the third consecutive year, Riverbed has demonstrated sustained levels of high performance year over year,” according to J.D. Power. “The true mark of a world class organization is in its capacity to sustain excellence over time.”

“Riverbed has for the third consecutive year demonstrated world-class customer service and technical support operational excellence,” said Thomas W. Pridham, senior vice president and general manager of TSIA-s Operational Best Practice and Certification programs. “Customers can rely on Riverbed for the people, processes and technology that are critical to the delivery of high quality support. The Riverbed technical support team should be very proud of their 2013 Certified Technology Services and Support certification recognition from J.D Power.”

To achieve certification, an organization must attain customer satisfaction scores among the top 20 percent of companies nationwide offering technology support, based on J.D. Power-s extensive technology industry benchmark customer satisfaction research. The organization must also pass a detailed audit of its support policies and procedures. Certification is valid for one year.

“Riverbed-s dedication to delivering a consistent, world class support experience to our customers is reflected in these awards,” said Scott Downie, senior vice president of worldwide support at Riverbed. “Our philosophy is to focus on what is most important to the customer, and this companywide culture has enabled us to build the strong, lasting relationships we have with our customers. As we grow and scale our organization, we continue to look for innovative ways to provide the fast and efficient services that make our customers successful within their own organizations.”

J.D. Power evaluated Riverbed on its assisted service over the phone, as well as its email-based support, its non-assisted website-based support, as well as depot support. For the certification, J.D. Power conducted a survey of Riverbed-s global customer base to establish an overall customer satisfaction index score and conducted onsite audits at Riverbed facilities.
