“In an increasingly CX-focused business environment, it’s clear that customers are not solely interested in purchasing technology; they are investing in outcomes,” said Blair Pleasant, President & Principal Analyst of COMMfusion and a Co-Founder of UCStrategies. “With its reimagined ACES division, Avaya professional services offers more than just advanced AI, cloud, and digital solutions, but also the promise of tangible results—enhanced customer experiences, improved operational efficiency, and ultimately, greater business success.”
ACES also enables customers to easily add capabilities from Avaya’s technology partners. For example, ACES leveraged Avaya‘s partnerships with Calabrio, a customer experience intelligence company, to help Canada‘s largest propane supplier, Superior Propane, improve customer retention and reduce average call handle times. Superior Propane leveraged Calabrio‘s desktop and speech analytics capabilities to get an in-depth understanding of current processes, and as a result, they reduced average call handle time by 30 seconds per call.
“ACES represents Avaya‘s unwavering dedication to its customers by delivering transformative technology through AI, cloud, and digital solutions that create personalized experiences,” said Emir Susic, Global Vice President, Avaya Customer Experience Services. “By meeting customers exactly where they are in their cloud migration, Avaya reinforces its commitment to guide organizations through their digital transformation journey.”
