Agility has never been more important for organizations, especially given the changing landscape of business communications and available communication channels. Adapting to the ever-changing communications space and efficiently managing costs while monitoring customer behavior are all must-haves in order to stay competitive. But all too often, rigid and complex business processes and communication silos can reduce a company’s agility; and therefore, affect their competitiveness.
The old adage that says “a business is only as good as its people” is important to remember, especially for organizations running contact centers. Highly skilled, knowledgeable, and motivated contact center agents will definitely help a company succeed, especially given that the customer experience has become a key differentiator in today's competitive market.

Let’s take a look at some stories you may have missed this week:
Poor call quality was considered a major deterrent and hindered the rise and adoption of business Voice over Internet Protocol (VoIP) technology early on in business communications. The infrastructure and the technology in these infancy stages of VoIP had not yet been fully developed, and inevitably caused early VoIP phone systems to suffer from delays, dropped calls, noise, and echoes--issues that were (no doubt) bad for business.

Today’s modern teams and enterprises have more ways than ever to communicate—email, phone call, instant messaging, business SMS, and audio and video conferencing—the list goes on. And establishing effective, real-time communication and collaboration is now much easier thanks to various Unified Communications (UC) platforms that integrate a number of communications channels in a single solution. With UC, businesses can not only streamline operations and boost employee productivity, they can also increase revenue and enhance customer relationships thanks to effective communication.
Telecommuting or working remotely is no longer just a perk or a privilege. For many businesses, it has become the norm. In fact, according to a recent Gallup report called 'The State of the American Workplace', more American employees now work remotely and do so for longer periods. To power today’s increasingly distributed and remote workforce, organizations are embracing cloud-based Unified Communications (UC) solutions.
Numerous case studies and industry surveys highlight the importance of the customer experience in today’s increasingly connected digital world. The customer experience, which is defined as the customer’s perception of a brand as a result of his or her interaction with the company, has become a critical factor in increasing customer satisfaction, loyalty, and advocacy. There are plenty of ways businesses can ensure a positive customer experience, but perhaps one of the simplest is to make it easy for prospects and customers to contact you.
Like other communication technologies, voicemail has vastly evolved over the past decade. Gone are the days when leaving a voicemail meant connecting over a traditional landline recording. With the various updates and improvements to voicemail technology, it’s now possible to send and access a list of voicemail messages from one’s email, play them back as needed, or read text-based transcripts of audio messages.
Effective and digestible communication is incredibly important to every company, regardless of size or industry. It is crucial for planning, company operations, building competencies, and creating a highly-skilled, motivated and committed workforce. When it comes to strengthening communications, most companies often turn to traditional voice and email channels. While these methods are helpful, in today’s increasingly competitive business environment, relying on these tools alone is no longer enough.
