Customer engagement technologies allow organizations to talk to and listen from customers in order to retain business. Only 10% of UK customers feel companies take note of their feedback. Flexible multi-channel technologies can capture feedback from voice, text, and multiple channels to help companies understand customers, increase revenues by over £1 million, and identify over 100,000 opportunities. Truly listening to customers at the moment of truth across all channels is important for understanding needs and improving satisfaction.

Api and fly! CPaaS Enablement: Combining Apps, Networks, and APIstelestax
Cloud-based Communications Platform-as-a-Service (CPaaS) technology is helping enterprises consume carrier resources in totally new ways through programmable interfaces. Through CPaaS, Enterprises can add real-time voice, video, and messaging into their own applications and systems without taking on a hefty infrastructure build. They can often reduce costs by selecting resources and features from self-service portals that offer instant provisioning and allow unprecedented integration and customization.

Telestax Keynote: API and Fly: CPaaS enablement, creating a B2B ecosystem with Applications and Networks using APIs
Kevin Nethercott, VP Business Development at TeleStax
We are now in the midst of a major industry transition as communication becomes a feature built into a wide range of apps, experiences, and services, rather than simply a product unto itself. With key enterprise customers increasingly seeing new CPaaS (Communications Platform as a Service) companies as a means to more efficiently consume carrier resources, while enabling innovation - traditional carriers and service providers are keen to add API driven solutions to their own portfolios. Faced with the choice of buy, build, or partner, one of the strategic trends is the emergence of marketplaces where carrier service providers and app developers can join forces to deliver exciting solutions for customers. Will CPaaS put even more competitive pressures on service providers, or give them new ways to compete, collaborate, and innovate?
This presentation will discuss
* What key problems CPaaS solves for service providers
* What are the technical skills CPaaS demands
* Why a marketplace for CPaaS enables innovation
* How to successfully embrace the CPaaS opportunity and thrive
7 Critical Success Factors for Outbound IVRVoxeo Corp
Do you want to learn how you can use outbound communication to build stronger relationships with your customers? Would you like to hear actual customer use cases of outbound communication? As your customers move into multi-channel communication across voice, SMS, IM and more, would you like how to use all those channels for outbound interaction as well?
In this presentation for a Speech Technology Magazine webinar, Voxeo's Dan York goes into all of this and more. Learn more at http://pages.voxeo.com/outbound-success
Breakfast briefing delivered to the ARC Retail Conference in September 2008. With the credit crunch beginning to bite, we focused on how retailers should be leveraging existing assets to create low cost, high benefit customer propositions.
SMS Continues to be the Best Mobile Marketing Channel With 102.4 percent wireless penetration in the United States*, more companies and organizations use the medium to reach out to existing and potential customers.
Specifically, SMS is the most effective channel for marketers because of its simplicity, adoption (or) familiarity, and unbiased reach. Virtually all phones are SMS capable, which means the channel can reach 5 billion subscribers worldwide. The International Association for the Wireless Telecommunications Industry (CTIA) reported U.S. annualized yearly text messaging at 2.12 trillion in June 2011, indicating a huge opportunity for marketers. And, according to Nielsen Mobile, the average consumer sends 600 messages per month compared to using less than 200 voice minutes.
