According to the report1, authored by Aragon Research CEO and Lead Analyst Jim Lundy, Avaya “has continued to execute in both Contact Center and Unified Communications and Collaboration offerings.

Improving the quality of experiences throughout the customer journey has become among the most important differentiators and a competitive advantage for many businesses. Aragon Research predicts that by 2022, AI-based contact centers will be able to identify the most important issue a customer is facing 50 percent faster than traditional approaches.1 Avaya OneCloud™ CCaaS empowers organizations to create customer experience centers that deliver exceptional experiences by easily expanding digital capabilities and effectively leveraging the power of cloud, AI, and IOT.
