The midsized market is often overlooked with regards to technology yet their needs are often similar to their larger counterparts.

Jasco is addressing this with the availability of Avaya’s Contact Centre Select solution, the latest addition to its customer experience management solutions for midsized businesses. Avaya Contact Centre Select offers sophisticated, multichannel contact centre capabilities with the simplicity needed by a midsize organization.

With the introduction and uptake of social media and additional communication channels such as IM, midsize companies are often challenged to provide multichannel customer care with technologies typically built for larger enterprises. Jasco fills this gap with Avaya’s in purpose-built midmarket communications and collaboration solutions to enable both mid and large enterprises to equally address the needs of their most strategic assets: their customers.

Says Andre Deetlefs, product executive at Jasco Enterprise, “As an Avaya Platinum Partner and member of the International Avaya Users Group (IAUG), we are positioned to assist these midsized businesses leverage corporate technology built into Avaya’s midsized solutions to enhance their contact centre functionality and as such, allow them to improve their ‘customer experience’.
