“What’s really impressive about Aspect Via is how quickly you can deploy a full omnichannel contact centre from scratch. Our contact centre representatives love using Aspect Via, especially the easy to use and intuitive UI. It keeps them on track by providing access to their schedules, team and individual statistics and allows them to self-manage their daily and overall performance.” – Connor Shaw, Head of Omni-Channel Centre of Excellence, Hoist Finance

The Aspect Via 20 release comes to the market at a time when the need for remote worker capabilities is at an all-time high. Contact centre agents using the Aspect Via cloud platform can easily work from any location, without incurring additional licensing fees or costs.

In addition, customers utilising Aspect Via 20 can take advantage of:

  • Expanded deployment options as well as a simplified cloud migration pathway that enables customers to work with the public cloud service provider of their choice
