Forrester assessed vendors against 40 criteria which were grouped into three high-level categories: current offering, strategy and market presence. In the report, Forrester notes that the lines between CCIM, Workforce Optimization (WFO), and Customer Relationship Management (CRM) are blurring and that while anchored in voice, CCIM vendors need to ensure that they are proactively positioning themselves for non-voice channels.
Aspect has been at the forefront of the development and maturation of non-voice channels, including:
Aspect Unified IP addresses these emerging channels by providing routing, proactive contact, and agent empowerment capabilities that connect digital-first interactions to customer transaction and interaction histories, for an effortless and personalized customer journey.
