Fuze Strengthens Cloud-Based Contact Center Offering through Expanded Partnerships with NICE inContact and Five9

Fuze, the leading cloud communications platform provider for the modern global enterprise, today announced that it has expanded its contact center portfolio to address the diverse needs of enterprise customers. With continued investments in its own contact center service, enhancements to the existing partnership with NICE inContact, and a new partnership with Five9 (News - Alert), Inc. (NASDAQ:FIVN), Fuze is uniquely positioned to deliver the best solutions to customers based on their business requirements.

"At Fuze, we understand that businesses have different contact center needs. While some customers may standardize on one solution, others have diverse requirements for independent call center groups within their organization. By offering a range of choices that include the top two contact center as a service (CCaaS) platforms in the market, customers can choose the solution that best meets their requirements and budget," said Derek Yoo, Co-Founder & Chief Product Officer, Fuze. "Whether a customer needs support for standard voice routing, call queues, and IVR, or requires more advanced omnichannel, outbound, and workforce optimization features, Fuze can recommend the right contact center offering to meet those needs."

Fuze's customized approach to its cloud contact center offerings marks an important component of the company's strategy to power every business conversation in the modern, global enterprise. By combining the company's world-class solution with each partners' best-of-breed contact center technology, Fuze can provide the right solutions for customers around the world.

"NICE CXone™ cloud customer experience platform helps companies differentiate from the competition and win in today's experience economy. We are excited to continue our success in the enterprise communications market by delivering an exceptional experience t Fuze customers."

For many Fuze customers, a blended solution can provide the best fit and enable non-traditional contact centers, such as HR and IT. By combining Fuze's contact center solution for voice-only groups with the more advanced functionality of its contact center partners, Fuze can provide solutions that cover the entire enterprise.
