How Cloud Improves Customer Service in Mid-Sized Contact Centers

The holiday season and the close of one year brings on thoughts of a new start in the year ahead. It’s a time to reflect on what has happened in 2019 — the joys, the hardships, the triumphs and the mistakes — and set a path to improve for the next year. Typically, the resolutions list includes things like: exercise more, lose weight, spend less time on social media or clean out that overstuffed junk drawer. For contact centers, a move to cloud is one resolution you need to make to ensure you see improvements in 2020.

A cloud contact center offers small and medium-sized businesses multiple benefits over a legacy, on-premises solution — improved scalability, heightened security and the ability to implement innovations like artificial intelligence (AI) and chatbots, just to name a few. An all-in-one cloud contact center solution gives agents an easy-to-navigate user interface that sets them up to succeed and, ultimately, improves your customer service. And no matter whether you’re mid-market, commercial or enterprise, the cloud lets you differentiate yourself from the competition.

We compiled some of the most viewed blogs and webinars from 2019 that focus on mid-sized contact centers (or call center, as some might call it). Grab a cup of coffee and take 30 minutes to read a blog or check out an on-demand webinar.  Learning about the technology trends for mid-sized companies will inspire you in 2020.
