Avaya and Verint Deepen Long Standing, Award Winning Partnership to Deliver Advanced AI Solutions

Morristown, NJ - September 30, 2024 - Avaya, a global leader in enterprise CX, today announced a deepened partnership with, Verint, The CX Automation Company™. Avaya and Verint's ongoing commitment to leveraging their decades-long partnership has helped solidify their industry standing as enterprise CX leaders, empowering their joint customers to innovate and to deliver enhanced customer experiences.

The partnership provides businesses with Verint's solutions and AI-powered bots seamlessly integrated into the Avaya Experience Platform™. These integrations offer flexibility for their customers, allowing the contact center environment to be tailored to meet specific needs, whether on-premise or in the cloud. True to Avaya's 'Innovation Without Disruption' strategy, the partnership with Verint further enables brands to innovate and add new features across different deployment methods without risking major business disruption.

Avaya customers have access to 50+ AI-powered bots via the Verint Open Platform. These AI- and Gen AI-powered capabilities are currently available to Avaya customers on-prem or in the cloud, and many are already delivering AI business outcomes for a variety of Avaya customers.

Verint recently announced new bots to complement its rapidly expanding offering:

  • Verint Agent Copilot Bots automate specific contact center tasks and can double agent capacity.

  • Verint Knowledge Automation Bot uses generative AI to search across multiple enterprise content sources and summarize results into a single, easily digestible and quick response to customer questions.

The new bot is embedded in Verint's market-leading Speech Analytics and leverages customer interaction data to inform business decisions in the contact center and beyond, delivering insights in days, rather than weeks or months.
