Futurist Joel A. Barker once said, \u201cVision without action is merely a dream. Action without vision is just passing time. Vision with action can change the world.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Consider this against the landscape of the cloud contact centre market today. There\u2019s a growing number of vendors, and at the outset, they may look a lot alike. But, for companies that differentiate with customer experience, certain attributes rise to the top. For example, its critical to find a partner with the right solutions, the foresight to know where the market is heading and innovations ready when you need them.<\/p>\n<p>We believe these are the precise reasons Genesys has been named a Leader in the <a href=\"\/en-gb\/resources\/gartner-magic-quadrant-for-2020-contact-center-as-a-service-worldwide\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">2020 Gartner Magic Quadrant for Contact Center as a Service<\/a> and was placed furthest for our vision, skyrocketing ahead for our Completeness of Vision.<\/p>\n<p>In our opinion, with the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.genesys.com\/en-gb\/cloud-platform\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Genesys Cloud\u2122 platform<\/a> we have the roadmap built for the future and proven ability to execute. According to Barker, these are the ingredients to propel change, and Genesys is on course to do just that.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Empathy: <\/strong><strong>the propellant<\/strong><strong> for <\/strong><strong>change<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Today\u2019s businesses are managing the new digital workplace alongside consumers\u2019 desire for on-demand service equal to that provided by Amazon, Netflix and Uber \u2013 companies revered for giving customers exactly what they want, when they want it. However, the next battleground to win customer loyalty is delivering service so exclusive and personalised that consumers feel uniquely heard and understood. Businesses will increasingly need an empathy-first approach to customer experience to get ahead.<\/p>\n<p>Unfortunately, the reality is many companies\u2019 contact centre systems simply aren\u2019t up to the task. It takes a true global cloud solution built with robust, ready-to-go functionality. Platform-level flexibility. A strong network of partners. Continuous innovation. The answer is <a href=\"https:\/\/www.genesys.com\/en-gb\/genesys-cloud\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Genesys Cloud<\/a>. We are filling a major gap left by other cloud vendors by giving our customers the technologies, ecosystem and scale to put empathy at the centre of every customer experience.<\/p>\n<p>This is the cornerstone of our vision of <a href=\"https:\/\/www.genesys.com\/en-gb\/experience-as-a-service\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Experience as a Service<\/a>.
