Current Problem Scenario
Airtel states that, at present, businesses with contact center requirements need to source voice, cloud, and software separately from multiple vendors, resulting in increased capital and time investments.
"The lack of a unified platform for contact center solutions has been an industry issue. We have developed a cutting-edge technology platform for CCaaS to address the challenges faced by the industry. Our innovative CCaaS offering combines the best of voice, cloud, and software to simplify contact center management at an affordable cost,"Airtel Business stated.
"With this, we will not only revolutionize the segment with a game-changing solution but also usher in a new era of streamlined operations for an enriching customer contact experience. We are certain that the industry will make the most of the offering."

With Airtel's CCaaS offering, enterprises can now reduce these investments, as the platform unifies Voice-as-a-Service (VaaS), cloud, and contact center software from providers, including Genesys. This enables enterprises to start using contact center solutions instantly at affordable monthly costs.
"With Airtel CCaaS, enterprises can enjoy seamless call handling for both inbound and outbound calls, in addition to call routing, call queuing, conference calling, call redirecting, and cloud monitoring on the cloud, accessible across all office locations anywhere, anytime," says Airtel.
