RingCentral, a provider of cloud communications, video meetings, collaboration, and contact centre solutions, has launched RingCX, a native, intelligent contact centre that combines RingCentral’s unified communications (including message, video, phone, SMS, and fax) with contact centre, plus generative artificial intelligence capabilities.
The company also is expanding its artificial intelligence platform, RingSense, across its portfolio. Leveraging generative AI, the new RingSense for Phone enables organisations to turn voice conversation data into insights.
RingCX delivers seamless customer experiences across inbound and outbound voice and more than 20 digital channels, including email, SMS, live chat, and messaging applications, and seamlessly transitions to video for high-touch customer service scenarios. Interactions are distributed via intelligent skills-based routing. RingCX also supports predictive, progressive, and preview modes for outbound calling. It also provides unified business intelligence analytics and real-time dashboards and historical reports, including 200 pre-built reports.
RingCX integrates with Salesforce and Zendesk, with additional integrations, including Hubspot, Microsoft Dynamics, and ServiceNow, coming soon. It also includes intelligent virtual agents powered by Google Dialogflow and native real-time AI-generated transcription post-call summaries, and action items that can be stored in CRM systems.
RingCX’s workforce engagement management features include real-time, AI-driven agent assistance via partner integration and native generative AI-based automated quality management and conversation analytics via RingSense AI, coming later this year, for automated interaction scoring, coaching, and guidance for agents.
“We have seen great success selling RingCentral MVP with RingCentral Contact Center powered by NICE. Our joint solution is well-differentiated as it integrates our respective Gartner Magic Quadrant leading products into a unified offering from a single provider,” said Vlad Shmunis, founder, chairman, and CEO of RingCentral, in a statement.
“We continue to invest in the NICE partnership and see significant continued potential. However, in listening to our customers, we’ve recognised an additional need for a native intelligent contact centre solution that would be better suited toward addressing simpler use cases. Importantly, in conjunction with MVP, it will allow contact centre agents and employees beyond the contact centre to act as one unified organisation focused on addressing customer needs, leading to improved customer satisfaction and greater efficiency in handling calls.”
“RingCentral recognises the need to dramatically simplify contact centre management and operation by striving to merge unified communications, contact centre, digital channels, and AI,” said Jim Lundy, CEO of Aragon Research, in a statement. “We’re at the beginning of this evolution, and it’s great to see RingCentral recognising this need. Their RingCX solution is a bold step forward in empowering employees across the organisation while removing the complexities of delivering great customer service experiences.”
“We are at a major inflection point where AI will permeate all aspects of business communications to make interactions smarter and drive unprecedented levels of productivity,” Shmunis said. “RingSense for Phone has been developed to allow our customers to gain valuable insights from their conversations on our industry-leading cloud communications platform.”
