Loffler is one of only six private dealerships in the country to achieve this honor. The Canon ATSP certification enables technicians to show their efficiency at servicing Canon products and empowers savvy dealerships to differentiate themselves from other competitors in the marketplace. Loffler expects to have more than 75% of their technicians certified by Spring 2015, thereby earning certification for the dealership. When a client sees the Canon ATSP logo, they can be assured that the technical support professional responding to their call has the highest industry standard of service certification and manufacturer-backed training to effectively solve any problem. In addition, Loffler earned top ranking in First Call Effectiveness from an independent third party , a result of professionally certified technicians responding in a three-hour time frame and fixing devices right the first time. This expertise enables devices to run for an extended period and maximizes client uptime. "We are exceptionally proud of our experienced, knowledgeable and friendly technicians who continuously strive to exceed the expectations of our clients," said Brian Patterson, Loffler Imaging Services Manager.
