unique Adaptive WFO approach uses analytics-based modeling to dynamically personalize contact center processes, such as

Donna Fluss, President, DMG Consulting
“Key trends over the past two years are challenging the status quo in everything contact centers do, from how staff is recruited
and scheduled to how they are rewarded and compensated. Enterprises are investing significant amounts of time and money into their
service organizations, and they expect to see a payback. Although productivity and cost savings are clearly important to
executives, they now appreciate that delivering great service is a top priority and the responsibility of everyone in the
company.”
Miki Migdal, President, NICE Enterprise Group
“This report mirrors the momentum that we have been experiencing in the market. Adaptive WFO, our innovative approach to employee
engagement, has garnered significant interest amongst customers and prospects. These organizations recognize that to achieve true
efficiency and deliver outstanding customer service, they must incorporate advanced analytics and smart routing, which NICE
provides to companies of all sizes and all verticals. In addition, these companies are either exploring or have begun a move to the
cloud. NICE has proven to be the partner of choice with solutions which enable them to do so in an efficient and effective
manner.”
