Workforce optimization solutions, such as quality monitoring and speech analytics, can play an important role in helping us deliver on our service pledge. We look forward to a successful deployment of our new Impact 360 solutions, which we believe will help us differentiate our services in an increasingly competitive market,” comments Thierry Prat, contact center IT manager, Bouygues Telecom. “Verint Witness Actionable Solutions clearly has a distinct approach to how unified, analytics-driven workforce optimization technology can help deliver significant performance and quality improvements, and we look forward to enjoying these benefits as our project progresses.”
