Enghouse Interactive (Enghouse Systems company)

The company's core mission is to empower organizations to deliver winning customer experiences by transforming the contact center from a traditional cost center into a powerful engine for growth. Enghouse Interactive achieves this by developing and supplying one of the market's broadest ranges of customer contact solutions. The underlying ethos is built on two key differentiators: Reliability and Choice. Reliability is maintained through decades of experience and a standards-based approach, while Choice is reflected in the unparalleled breadth of its CX portfolio, which allows customers to select solutions that can be deployed on-premise, in the cloud (Contact Center as a Service - CCaaS), or in a hybrid model.

Enghouse Interactive supports thousands of customers globally, managing over a million agent seats. Its solutions are highly flexible and designed to integrate with a customer???s existing communication infrastructure, enabling the contact center to scale and flex with evolving business demands and customer channels. The company serves a wide range of industries and sizes, leveraging a global network of reseller partners.
