Meet Five9 Customer Heroes Leading the Cloud Contact Center Revolution

Founded in 2001, Five9 began the cloud revolution in contact centers. It’s been almost sixteen years, but when you look at the numbers it’s pretty surprising to me. It’s estimated that only 10-15% of the companies in the world are running their contact centers in the cloud.

According to "Why More Contact Centers are Moving to the Cloud" in Fortune Magazine, most of the estimated $304 billion spent in 2016 on business software applications were spent on "legacy" solutions - where applications are licensed, installed and run from inside a company's network firewall. Think about this - according to independent technology researcher Forrester Research, two-thirds of software budgets are still dedicated to the legacy solutions.

So who are these heroes that led the way at their companies to implement a cloud contact center?

They are call center leaders of service, support, sales, marketing and technical organizations. They are presidents, owners, executives, and call center teams. Whatever their job title, they have one role – they focus on making today’s call centers better, stronger, and faster.

Today we spotlight the Five9 Customer Success Showcase where you can watch video testimonials and view case studies to learn from your peers. Hear from heroes at companies, such as Bernard, Booker, Citrix, National Funding, Siemens, and others who trust Five9 to accelerate their sales and power customer service 24x7x365.
