By now most people acknowledge the advantages of moving your call center infrastructure to the cloud. Those advantages include:
- OPEX vs CAPEX
- Easier to use
- Speed to implement
- More agility to make changes
- Operational efficiency and cost saving
- Superior customer experience
- Easier to enable home/remote agents
- Lower cost to maintain
- Easier and faster to provision global agents
- Faster innovation and no more costly “forklift upgrades”
Yet many companies with legacy telephony systems still hesitate to make the transition. While the rest of the company is busy with digital transformation, the call center is often left behind. The hesitation often comes from IT, who might be maintaining legacy on-prem PBX that’s doing its basic job, or who might have established agreements in place with a telecom carrier. Why disrupt that? So a conservative “if it ain’t broke” approach is taken, even if it means forgoing efficiency, cost savings and better CX.
The good news is that you no longer have to choose. You can take advantage of Talkdesk, the world’s most innovative cloud contact center technology while maintaining your legacy telephony infrastructure and relationships.
