EDISON, N.J., May 19, 2011 /PRNewswire/ -- Comtel Global Services, LLC (CGS) is proud to announce CirriusImpact, a state-of-the-art cloud-based hosted contact center, featuring the award winning NICE SmartCenter suite of workforce optimization solutions from NICE Systems and the offering of Presence Technology. The CirriusImpact branded offering provides contact centers of all sizes with access to scalable, state-of-the-art solutions on a software-as-a-service (SaaS) basis.

CirriusImpact features hosted applications that provide multi-channel communication capabilities that enable customers to effectively interact with their clients via voice (inbound, outbound), email, web chat, SMS and social media channels. Users of the CirriusImpact platform can engage with customers in a high quality, real-time manner, resulting in highly effective interactions.  Contact center managers benefit from capabilities such as branch scripting tools for outbound campaigns, voice and data interactions, call recording, quality management (QM), workforce management (WFM), Interaction Analytics (IA), real-time dashboards and customized reports.

"We are excited about this cooperation and our ability to leverage the proven capabilities of these leading solutions developed by NICE and Presence Technology that we now offer to our customers. Both of these award-winning companies have built stellar reputations through years of providing advanced contact center solutions which CirriusImpact is now making available as a hosted application service offering.  There are great synergies achieved by combining these two solutions together in a hosted offering," said Yossi (Joseph) Teichman, President and CEO of CGS, LLC.

The unique capabilities of CirriusImpact's hosted offering allow for a high degree of deployment flexibility, making it adaptable to most any business environment:

• Support for environments that range from those entailing single channel requirements to those with highly sophisticated multi-channel communication requirements (Phone, IVR, Fax, Chat, Mail, Web Collaboration)
• Ability to deploy the solution as a fully hosted solution in the cloud, as an on premise implementation, or as a hybrid deployment
• Ability to implement the full application suite  or just one application module as a stand-alone solution (such as WFM, IA, IVR, Outbound Dialer to name a few)

CirriusImpact provides advanced solutions that can be funded through operational costs at an affordable monthly rate, making them accessible to companies with limited capital expense budgets.  "The benefit to customers is that the CirriusImpact solution does not require a large up-front investment, there are no hidden costs, the operations people have control over their campaigns, and the support burden on IT is greatly minimized," says John Franco, Executive Vice President, North America for Presence Technology.

"We are pleased to partner with CGS on the CirriusImpact offering. Through this cooperation, CGS customers can now leverage NICE solutions to impact every customer interaction, enabling personalized, real-time customer service that optimizes customer experience and drives revenues as well.
