The company\nis now set to continue helping enable businesses to realise the full potential\nof this vision at the 2019 edition of the MENA region\u2019s largest technology\ntrade show.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cSuccessfully\ndelivering incredible customer experiences, requires a discipline, openness and\nsense of collaboration usually reserved for the highest forms of art,\u201d said Nidal\nAbou-Ltaif, President, Avaya International. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cThe\ncreation of art requires nurturing a basic concept into a fully formed masterpiece,\nthrough the integration and interplay of multiple elements. Avaya\u2019s approach to\ninnovation closely mirrors this. The path-breaking solutions and use-cases we\nare bringing to GITEX are the realisation of ideas that have stemmed from the\nsynergy, and deep co-creation process with our customers and technology\npartners. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cThese\ntherefore have the ability to help drive incredible benefits &#8211; whether it is in\ndelivering exceptional enterprise experiences, dramatically enhancing workforce\nproductivity, empowering people of determination or much more.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Over\nthe last year, Avaya has continued to invest heavily in its core technologies &#8211;\nincluding Avaya <a href=\"https:\/\/www.avaya.com\/en\/products\/contact-center\/\">IX\u2122\nContact Center<\/a> and <a href=\"https:\/\/www.avaya.com\/en\/products\/unified-communications\/\">Avaya\nIX\u2122 Workplace<\/a> &#8211; while focusing on a true\ncloud-first design approach that helps empowers customers to choose the most\neffective and efficient deployment model. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>To\nhighlight this, the company will demonstrate the latest advancements to the\nAvaya IX Contact Center platform. At the centre of these enhancements are three\nnewly introduced modules, which help deliver comprehensive contact centre\ninsights to enable better strategic decision making; facilitate consistency and\nexcellence in customer service across all touch points, accommodating variances\nin agent skill sets; and bring the back-office forward so that subject matter\nexperts are always on-hand to assist customer queries. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Avaya\nwill also demonstrate the latest AI-powered applications that augment workflows\nin both a self-service and contact centre environment. These AI elements continue\nto become more powerful due to Avaya\u2019s commitment to the API economy, which\nembraces an open standards-based approach and has helped enable the company to\nrapidly deploy these AI-powered capabilities to its market-leading platforms. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>A\nnew platform being released at GITEX, helps sets a new standard for the\nindustry as it finally delivers on the promise of UC by bringing together all\nthe applications, channels of communication and tools that the modern employee\nneeds. By embedding AI, automation and analytics into a truly unified digital\ncommunications and collaboration workplace, the solution will help enable\nemployees to focus on what\u2019s most important, thereby elevating their\nexperiences, increasing their efficiency and resulting in a more productive\nworkforce. &nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>While\nAvaya has continued to lead the industry in the creation and delivery of intelligent\nUC and CC platforms, it has also been championing the development of\ncommunications solutions that facilitate equality of experience for all. At\nGITEX, the company will demonstrate a solution that helps streamline\ncommunications, fosters awareness and support, provides easy access to\ninformation and enhances safety for people of determination. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cOur\nwork here epitomises the Art of Experience and as with a great piece of art, it\nhas the ability to touch lives and stir our deepest human emotions.
