Quotes:
“Establishing proactive customer experience operations has previously required companies to engage in a long, arduous process and with several vendors, and was often out of the reach of mid-sized operations. Avaya Outbound Contact Express streamlines all this with a powerful, pre-integrated solution that provides all the pieces, including ongoing support and upgrade protection, need for highly effective operations.”
–Mark de la Vega, Vice President and General Manager, Contact Center, Avaya
“The typical contact center operation is largely focused on being available through a variety of means when the customer is ready to initiate contact. But, there is tremendous value to adopting a proactive contact strategy that can alert customers and others when there is information they need to know. Single vendor, turnkey technology solutions make adopting a proactive strategy much more feasible, and can remove many of the hesitations that may prevent organizations from going down this path.”
