LAS VEGAS, NV – February 23, 2018 – Gold, Silver, and Bronze Stevie Awards® were handed out at the gala banquet at Caesars Palace in Las Vegas. Riva is thrilled to have won two Silver Stevie Awards for Customer Service Success!

When was the last time you experienced customer service that actually surprised or even delighted you? When you sensed that an individual (or team) was genuinely committed to helping you be successful? It happens, but rarely.

At Riva, we strive for customer delight every day. Customer delight is one of our core values. That is why we are thrilled to win two 2018 Silver Stevie Awards for Customer Service Success (Customer Service Department of the Year, computer software, up to 100 employees) and a 2017 Bronze Stevie Award for Customer Service. We genuinely believe that these awards highlight our effort and commitment to providing the best possible customer experience.
