NICE Named a Leader in the 2022 Gartner® Magic Quadrant™ for Contact Centre as a Service For 8th Consecutive Year

NICE announced that Gartner has recognised NICE as a Leader in the just-released 2022 Gartner Magic Quadrant for Contact Centre as a Service (CCaaS) report with CXone being evaluated. NICE placed the furthest overall for its Completeness of Vision in the Leaders quadrant.

This marks the eighth consecutive year that NICE has been named a Leader in the CCaaS Magic Quadrant.

This 2022 Gartner Magic Quadrant for CCaaS evaluates Contact Centre as service providers that empower exceptional customer experiences across industries around the globe. The Gartner Magic Quadrant describes Leaders as follows: “Leaders are best described as suppliers with strong support for the four pillars of great customer service, and with an ability to serve multinational organisations with local sales and support organisations. Leaders are more likely to serve customers through channel partners and have strong brand recognition, which has resulted in a large installed base or above-average market growth as a result of customer demand. Leaders also benefit from being able to support varying levels of deployment complexity, including integrations with partners through established marketplaces.”

NICE CXone delivers the industry’s only combination of CCaaS, WFO, Analytics, AI and Digital Self-Service based on CXone, the world’s leading cloud-native CX platform. This creates smart, connected, self-service and human-assisted interactions across the entire customer journey. With intelligent bots, virtual agents, automated proactive engagement, mobile engagement and accessible knowledge organisations are able to expand their workforce, helping customers find answers quickly and move effortlessly between self-service and agent-assisted support. CXi is designed to empower organisations to intelligently meet their customers throughout their entire journey, enables resolution through AI and data-driven self-service, and prepares agents to successfully resolve any customer needs event.

“We are thrilled to again be recognised as a Leader by Gartner for the eighth consecutive year,” said Paul Jarman, NICE CXone CEO. “As a digitally fluent customer experience increasingly becomes a brand’s most potent differentiator, NICE is pioneering a new market standard of AI-infused customer experience interactions (CXi). With the most complete, connected, and intelligent integrated CX solution, we are helping brands exceed customer expectations by exceeding the boundaries of the contact centre to create better, more meaningful interactions with customers. We believe this recognition from Gartner amplifies NICE’s core commitment to advancing digital transformation and the success of the organisations we serve by strengthening their customer relationships.”

NICE was recognised in the very first Gartner Magic Quadrant for CCaaS report in 2015 as a Leader and has been recognised as a Leader in the Magic Quadrant for CCaaS consecutively since then. The company believes its consistent recognition in this report reinforces its ability to identify market trends early and continually innovate accordingly to deliver the technology solutions organisations need to advance customer success.

Earlier this year, NICE was recognised for the first time by Gartner as a Leader in the 2022 Gartner Magic Quadrant for Robotic Process Automation (RPA). NICE is the only CX vendor to be named a Leader by Gartner in both the 2022 Magic Quadrant reports for CCaaS and RPA.
