The Death of Software in the Call Center
A 100% cloud based approach
![Page 2: The Death of Software in the Call Center - a 100% Cloud Based Approach?](https://reader033.fdocuments.net/reader033/viewer/2022060118/558c7bb0d8b42a7f4c8b45e6/html5/thumbnails/2.jpg)
There is a prerequisite for success for cloud based contact centers.
There is a method to realizing the ROI…to the “visions of sugarplums dancing in your heads”.
Its not what you think…it isn't software, or infrastructure. They influence it – but don’t or can’t unlock the optimal ROI.
The journey to the end of your on premise software

What’s the most important factor?
ROI? Cost Reduction? Growth/Scale/Capacity?
Why is it important for me to move to the Cloud from OnPremise?

…one view

You have no choice
All meaningful innovation will be delivered via cloud.
Fear this. If nothing else, be motivated by it.
You have 24 months at best.
Because you’re going to have to embrace it. By force.
![Page 6: The Death of Software in the Call Center - a 100% Cloud Based Approach?](https://reader033.fdocuments.net/reader033/viewer/2022060118/558c7bb0d8b42a7f4c8b45e6/html5/thumbnails/6.jpg)
Do Cloud solutions eliminate cost and complexity, inherently?
![Page 7: The Death of Software in the Call Center - a 100% Cloud Based Approach?](https://reader033.fdocuments.net/reader033/viewer/2022060118/558c7bb0d8b42a7f4c8b45e6/html5/thumbnails/7.jpg)
It appears that way today…there will be more options, not fewer.
That spells complex.
They are just as difficult to implement successfully
No Way.
![Page 8: The Death of Software in the Call Center - a 100% Cloud Based Approach?](https://reader033.fdocuments.net/reader033/viewer/2022060118/558c7bb0d8b42a7f4c8b45e6/html5/thumbnails/8.jpg)
Cloud based applications are the single best sources of information
innovation, aren't they?
![Page 9: The Death of Software in the Call Center - a 100% Cloud Based Approach?](https://reader033.fdocuments.net/reader033/viewer/2022060118/558c7bb0d8b42a7f4c8b45e6/html5/thumbnails/9.jpg)
CRM technologies have innovated and improved at amazing rates
Telephony has become less expensive, more reliable, and of higher quality.
Multi-channel solutions have created value, not destroyed them
Finally, some truth
![Page 10: The Death of Software in the Call Center - a 100% Cloud Based Approach?](https://reader033.fdocuments.net/reader033/viewer/2022060118/558c7bb0d8b42a7f4c8b45e6/html5/thumbnails/10.jpg)
Its not easy
It’s the right thing to do
I have to do it anyway
…so what’s the obstacle?
So, to Cloud in the Contact Center…
![Page 11: The Death of Software in the Call Center - a 100% Cloud Based Approach?](https://reader033.fdocuments.net/reader033/viewer/2022060118/558c7bb0d8b42a7f4c8b45e6/html5/thumbnails/11.jpg)
The obstacle to call center success with cloud
technology
![Page 12: The Death of Software in the Call Center - a 100% Cloud Based Approach?](https://reader033.fdocuments.net/reader033/viewer/2022060118/558c7bb0d8b42a7f4c8b45e6/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)
Cloud based Contact Center apps are better than ever
![Page 13: The Death of Software in the Call Center - a 100% Cloud Based Approach?](https://reader033.fdocuments.net/reader033/viewer/2022060118/558c7bb0d8b42a7f4c8b45e6/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)
We’ve never had more solutions
We’ve never had better solutions
Innovation is hitting our industry faster than any one else
Its true, and that’s part of the problem
![Page 14: The Death of Software in the Call Center - a 100% Cloud Based Approach?](https://reader033.fdocuments.net/reader033/viewer/2022060118/558c7bb0d8b42a7f4c8b45e6/html5/thumbnails/14.jpg)
Contact Centers have never had so MANY “good choices”
![Page 15: The Death of Software in the Call Center - a 100% Cloud Based Approach?](https://reader033.fdocuments.net/reader033/viewer/2022060118/558c7bb0d8b42a7f4c8b45e6/html5/thumbnails/15.jpg)
CRM, Telephony, Call Recording, Marketing Automation, Dialers, Softphones, Supply Chain, Accounting, Language Solutions, Chat, SMS Servers, Vertical Plug-ins, Ticket Trackers, BI,…OMG.
And more of em actually “work” than ever before.
This overabundance of solutions….WILL GET WORSE, AND WILL OUTPACE CONSOLIDATION
Which leads to the problem
![Page 16: The Death of Software in the Call Center - a 100% Cloud Based Approach?](https://reader033.fdocuments.net/reader033/viewer/2022060118/558c7bb0d8b42a7f4c8b45e6/html5/thumbnails/16.jpg)
OK – so “cloud” is not THAT easy…but what’s the root problem
![Page 17: The Death of Software in the Call Center - a 100% Cloud Based Approach?](https://reader033.fdocuments.net/reader033/viewer/2022060118/558c7bb0d8b42a7f4c8b45e6/html5/thumbnails/17.jpg)

Layers of duct tape, bailing wire, glue…because we gave him pressure, without giving him money.
It works
Its all in his head
In the Call Center…IS = Integration Sins
![Page 19: The Death of Software in the Call Center - a 100% Cloud Based Approach?](https://reader033.fdocuments.net/reader033/viewer/2022060118/558c7bb0d8b42a7f4c8b45e6/html5/thumbnails/19.jpg)
The old world
Luckily the technology industry has a solution for the wiring challenges
![Page 20: The Death of Software in the Call Center - a 100% Cloud Based Approach?](https://reader033.fdocuments.net/reader033/viewer/2022060118/558c7bb0d8b42a7f4c8b45e6/html5/thumbnails/20.jpg)
The new world
Its not much better
![Page 21: The Death of Software in the Call Center - a 100% Cloud Based Approach?](https://reader033.fdocuments.net/reader033/viewer/2022060118/558c7bb0d8b42a7f4c8b45e6/html5/thumbnails/21.jpg)
How we the IT industry suggest we fix it
![Page 22: The Death of Software in the Call Center - a 100% Cloud Based Approach?](https://reader033.fdocuments.net/reader033/viewer/2022060118/558c7bb0d8b42a7f4c8b45e6/html5/thumbnails/22.jpg)
We’ve not been very good at it in the Call Center – because we have never been afforded the time or money
We have more to integrate not less. Cloud = more integration!
The sockets are nice and clean…but we have to wire it up….and the voltage and currents don’t always match
So its Integration.

Lets characterize it first
![Page 25: The Death of Software in the Call Center - a 100% Cloud Based Approach?](https://reader033.fdocuments.net/reader033/viewer/2022060118/558c7bb0d8b42a7f4c8b45e6/html5/thumbnails/25.jpg)
A lack of integration architecture “aplomb” but tremendous “resourcefulness”
A lack of market ready cloud integration tools
The problems can be aptly characterized by:

Gartner, Forrester and others predict the demise of the CIO
“By 2017 the CMO will Spend More on IT Than the CIO”
- Gartner Group 2012
CMO, CSO will have a much larger influence on solution selection than CIO.
More good news for CIOs

Focus on CRM first
Spend the time on an integration architecture
Invest in a cloud integration platform Not your publishers platform…
What the new CIO must do

Telephony is the heart of a call center You will not survive very long without your
telephony
CRM is the brain You will die without your data**
