In an increasingly competitive market, businesses understand the Customer Experience (CX) they deliver is a top reason their customers will choose to buy from them – or not. As such, CX is a top priority for executives – and customer expectations are increasing.
Alongside increasing CX expectations, technology too is rapidly advancing through the power that cloud computing provides, and organisations are turning to solutions like Amazon Connect to help deliver tailored CX.
Amazon Connect is a next generation platform, specifically designed to deliver CX at scale through customer contact. Amazon Connect is the same platform that Amazon use to deliver their own customer contact platforms. Born in 2017, Amazon Connect has recently been named a Leader in the Gartner CCaaS Magic Quadrant. While having such a powerful and malleable toolset at an organization’s disposal is game changing, it can be an extremely complex undertaking to unlock the full potential and benefits without specialist guidance. This is where Gamma comes in.
Following their acquisition of Mission Labs in 2021, Gamma are positioned well to help accelerate and enhance the CX journeys of large enterprises. Leveraging Gamma’s CloudCCX Professional Services offering, business leaders can accelerate their journey to Amazon Connect, replacing their aging contact centres, and laying the foundations for transformational Customer Experiences. CloudCCX is the vehicle to not only transition away from legacy customer contact solutions, but is also the path to delivering true transformation, all as a Managed Service.
