What you don’t know, you can’t change, and this session will explain how analysing existing data streams can find solutions to problems you may not have realised existed.

Why are so many Contact Centers moving to the cloud?

It's no secret your users tend to use the communications tools they are most comfortable with even when they are consumer tools unsanctioned by IT. Sure, you've researched, selected, implemented, and support the best of collaborative tools to give your users anytime, anywhere, any device connectivity to each other. But even so, they still ignore IT's efforts and run back to what they like, leaving IT with no visibility into how the business is collaborating, and no ability to enrich the user experience while improving business productivity. 

So, how do you build a collaborative office that allows IT to remain in control of it all?

In this interactive webinar, join industry expert and founder of Techvangelism, Nick Cavalencia, along with Niel Levonius from 8x8, as they discuss:
-It's not you, it's them - why the consumerization of IT continues in the face of fantastic enterprise-caliber collaborative solutions
-Where IT's approach to solving the problem is off base
-How to build the collaborative office users want

Enterprises are increasingly considering Unified Communications as a Service (UCaaS) as the basis for their communications infrastructure strategy going forward. But some have been reluctant to commit to a pure cloud approach from the start, so they pursue a hybrid strategy—with some users migrated to the cloud while others remain on legacy premises systems. Is this really the best strategy? Or does hybrid offer the worst of both worlds—partial outsourcing while still requiring significant internal resources to manage legacy gear and its integration with the UCaaS service? 

This webinar will lay out the advantages and the industry trends toward UC in the cloud, and will feature expert opinions on the issues that a hybrid approach may add to a UC strategy. You’ll come away with an understanding of why hybrid cloud isn’t necessarily the safe or easy choice, and whether a migration to 100% UCaaS can be a better option. 

Join industry experts & a seasoned IT VP as they explain and debate: 
Hybrid vs. UCaaS (Unified Communications as a Service) 
Potential issues and trade-offs of a hybrid approach 
Best practices for moving 100% to a UCaaS solution 
Real-world feedback from an IT executive on moving to UCaaS

Key Topics for Discussion
-Business drivers for migrating to the cloud for telephony, UC, and contact centers
-Why a hybrid cloud approach isn't necessarily the answer for alleviating security, reliability, and control concerns
-Best practices for moving 100% to a UCaaS solution

UCaaS: Skipping Hybrid and Moving Directly to the Cloud

What does it mean to have an enterprise-grade cloud communications solution? Many providers may claim to offer it, but not all can deliver. And if always-on, reliable and global communications are mission-critical for your business, you need to ensure your cloud provider is making the "grade". 

In this complimentary webinar, we will discuss 8 standard elements that all companies should look out for when exploring a cloud communications solution, including: 

The flexibility to extend international services and global reach 
Potential risks of downtime and non-compliance when solutions are not enterprise-grade 
The ability to integrate with contact center, CRM and productivity applications 

Who should attend: 
CIOs, Directors of IT or Infrastructure 
Anyone interested in unifying their communications and collaboration infrastructure onto a single, secure, reliable platform – simply 
Those seeking a way to replace outdated or disparate legacy systems across multiple locations.

8 Criteria for Enterprise-Grade Cloud Communications

Your customer’s experience with your support organization has a huge impact on their impression of your brand, their loyalty, and on how much they will spend with you through the years.  Most companies are aware of the need to improve their customer journeys but they don’t have the information they need to know what to do.

In addition, your agent’s journey impacts your customers as well.  How efficient is your agent?  How much time do they spend looking at the wrong screens, trying to keep the customer busy while he scrambles to find the right information?  What is the mindset of your agent when they talk to a customer?  Are the focused on helping the customer or scrambling in the background to get to the information they need? 

Businesses should be tracking and managing both journeys in order to become more successful. But this is easier said than done.

Join Aphrodite Brinsmead of Ovum Research while she share insights into the customer journey from her new research looking into the customer journey, what causes trouble and what has less of an impact.  Max Ball from 8x8 will join to share some new innovations that make it easier to track the customer journey and to help ensure your agents are as efficient as possible.
