The Skinny

Twilio Flex supports an abundance of communication channels including rich messaging, voice, and video, allowing agents to switch from a phone call to video chat, as well as manage interactions across various web and mobile environments, from a single UI. Users also can add new channels from the Flex Marketplace using pre-built integrations from third parties. Flex’s omnichannel capabilities allow agents to effortlessly follow a conversation across multiple channels, without losing the context. Flex analytics include real-time and historical dashboards to help users improve agent, administrator, or supervisor performance, and lets users monitor agent interactions in real time across any channel.

the rub

The Rub

With Twilio Flex, organizations can run and build an enterprise contact center that matches their exact business needs by customizing, adding, or removing the out-of-the-box components, and configuring the contact center on a granular level. Two-way integration allows users to send and receive data from external CRM, WFO and WFM tools to manage all customer interactions via a single interface. Attribute-based routing enables users to control calls programmatically by modifying routes based on skills, machine-learning logic, or steps in the customer journey using the TaskRouter tool. Users can create an intelligent workflow engine using Studio, Twilio’s visual drag and drop workflow editor, and pipe data from custom sources using the API.

Bottom Line

Since their founding back in 2007, Twilio has always been a leader in their unique space. After going public in 2016, the provider continues to innovate and grow, more recently introducing their SIP Trunking offerings. Starting from a small group of three, Twilio has grown to a large developer community of over 1 million, not including Twilio employees. Twilio’s mission is one of innovation, and is driven by the passion of building products that help empower users. While Twilio is now known for their powerful SMS API platform, the provider’s origins stem from Twilio Voice. This original API allowed users to place and receive phone calls hosted completely in the cloud. But just a few years later in February of 2010, the provider released their text messaging API. Without any slowing down, just a year later in July of 2011, Twilio went ahead and released SMS short codes in a public beta. Since 2009, Twilio had raised about $103 million in venture capital growth funding, but had went public in 2016 with a very successful launch.

Without even realizing it, many of us have already experienced Twilio’s services. The popular group chat app, GroupMe,  was founded in May 2010 specifically using Twilio’s text messaging services. Other incredibly popular solutions that rely on Twilio’s API platform include Netflix, Airbnb, Twitter, Salesforce, Yelp and both Uber and Lyft. Uber provides one of the most obvious examples for how Twilio services can be utilized – when booking a trip on Uber, users will receive text messages to confirm their ride, and status updates on their driver’s location. These text messages are only made possible through Twilio. Drivers are also able to directly contact riders through the Uber app, and even call passengers without ever knowing their phone number – this is all thanks to Twilio’s APIs. While a number of alternatives and competitors have popped up, Twilio remains the leading services in their some-what unique market, and continues to innovate with new offerings. Most recently, Twilio has introduced Elastic SIP Trunking.
