Announced for Customer Contact Week 2019, the exciting new offering aims to support more than 1 million users worldwide who already rely on 8×8 technology. The 8×8 Contact Centre will give customers access to various capabilities provided through a single platform.

The company was keen to showcase its new offering at the Customer Contact Week event in the Mirage Las Vegas. 8×8 also demonstrated various new products intended to reduce customer friction and increase contact resolution across the X Series and 8×8 Contact Centre offering.
What to Expect from the 8×8 Contact Centre
The 8×8 Contact Centre is a complete solution for standalone customer service support, including IVR, ACD, omnichannel dialers, reporting, and customer journey analytics. Other features include speech analytics, quality management, surveys, and a knowledge base, all provided within a single unified platform. The Contact Centre from 8×8 is the only CCaaS product available on the market to provide a bank of minutes for each agent providing a range of savings opportunities.
Additionally, 8×8 is giving its customers options to use their own PBX or access the 8×8 UCaaS offering with a selection of pre-built CRM integrations that extend the functionality of the platform and provide single sign-on and central administration features. The tool is backed by guaranteed voice quality and 99.99% uptime.
