The 2019 report, which evaluates CCaaS providers in North America, notes that "Many look to either their CRM vendors or best-of-breed specialists to provide these customer interaction channels. However, voice-based connections make up a significant portion of interactions in contact centers today. As such, as companies have evolved their customer support to become more customer-centric across all interaction channels, the benefits of acquiring both their voice and nonvoice channels as a package from a single vendor have become more compelling."
