NICE Recognized as Global Market Share Leader for Speech Analytics for Seventh Year in a Row

NICE announced that it has been recognized by DMG Consulting LLC, a leading research and consulting firm, as the market share leader for speech analytics. In a new report, NICE was noted for holding the largest percentage of the total speech analytics market based on the number of contact centre seats, as it has for the past seven years.

Additionally, NICE shared leadership across four categories of customer satisfaction including current product, implementation, professional services and pricing.

DMG Consulting’s 2018-2019 Speech Analytics Product and Market Report stated that NICE Speech Analytics solutions accounted for 43.6 percent of the market. This represents over 2.5 million seats – almost a million more than its nearest competitor. According to the report, “Speech analytics is getting a new lease on life, courtesy of artificial intelligence, machine learning and the digital transformation. Additionally, the growth of personal digital assistants and intelligent virtual agents has driven the need for a better quality of speech recognition, and the vendors have delivered.”

As a comprehensive offering that’s powered by artificial intelligence, the solution draws on a vast amount of interaction data from phone calls, web chats, customer surveys and more to generate faster and more accurate customer insights.
