ContactEngine has today announced a partnership with Vonage, a global cloud communications leader.
The provider of conversational AI technology will augment Vonage’s own AI-powered solutions by providing access to its leading AI capabilities, which boasts 90% automation of customer conversations without the need for human intervention.
By leveraging Vonage APIs, ContactEngine conversations can be rapidly deployed across the globe, without the need for costly and disruptive software changes.
Prof Mark K. Smith, CEO of ContactEngine, said: “It’s a great privilege to be able to work with Vonage. ContactEngine operates internationally, engaging in millions of customer conversations for some of the biggest companies in the world.
“What’s so pleasing about partnering with Vonage is that we need to work right at the edges of perfection – if we can deliver even an extra 1% improvement in the way customers engage, then we can deliver considerable savings for a company – and Vonage offers us the path to realise that through their international reach, low latency, and ability to deliver communications across various channels. It’s a complex landscape communicating with customers on an international scale and Vonage gives us the confidence to operate with reliability.”
Sunny Rao, Vonage Senior Vice President, API Global Sales, added: “At Vonage, we’re accelerating the way the world connects as a leader in the Communications Platform as a Service (CPaaS) industry. We’ve built a number of market leading products around our messaging, voice and video APIs to support our customers in doing mission critical things on a global scale with impact.
“Our aim is to make it as easy as possible for them to accomplish that, by removing the intricate communication barriers which vary from country to country and network to network. Beyond providing our technology, we also have a collective mission with ContactEngine to enhance customer experiences, so I’m really looking forward to all the great things that we can do together.”
The partnership between Vonage and ContactEngine will allow for greater connectivity between brands and their customers. This will allow businesses to enhance customer experience wherever they are in the world.
