In addition to new functions and abilities, you can also enjoy the following benefits:

• Better Security. Cloud-based solutions run through a vendor’s systems, which can be specifically hardened against outside intrusion. Take advantage of end-to-end security and two-way authentication to protect data and keep new threats like ransomware from attacking your internal operations.
• Less In-House Maintenance. Especially good news for smaller operations, cloud-based solutions are maintained at the vendor’s facilities. Since you just use the tools, you have a lot less maintenance to do yourself. That frees up your own IT staff for other, more profitable, operations.
• Cost Savings. By using someone else’s tools on a cloud-based system, you don’t have to install your own servers and the like to get access. You’ve changed one huge bill for equipment into a regular monthly bill.
• Faster Response to Changes. Need more capacity in the busy season? With cloud-based systems, you can buy more as needed. When it’s not needed, stop buying it. There’s no longer a need to deliberately buy too much to just keep up with potential future needs.

CCaaS provides organizations with benefits that include:

• Improved customer experience: Technology can ease the strain of common customer pain points, like hold times and missed calls. With CCaaS features such as IVR, call routing, ring groups, and queue call-backs, customers will report higher satisfaction.
• Analytics: Every call is a chance to nurture repeat sales or drive customers away. CCaaS gives data-backed insight into how agents are performing, talk-time, customers in queue and more.
• More productive agents: With the auto dialer and pre-recorded voicemail feature, agents spend more time on the phone and less time with tedious, manual tasks.
• Easy Integration: Enterprise-level contact centers were formerly out of financial reach for SMBs, but CCaaS changes the game.
