Verint®, The Customer Engagement Company, announced the winners of its Global Customer Awards at Engage 2022, the industry’s premier customer engagement event in Orlando, Fla.

“By leveraging automation, AI and analytics, they have improved productivity and efficiency, improved retention rates for their customer engagement teams and ultimately created a better experience for their customers. Congratulations to our winners for successfully navigating another challenging year.”

Verint’s Engage Global Customer Awards recognize individuals and their respective organizations that are using Verint solutions to help close The Engagement Capacity Gap, and, in turn, build enduring relationships with customers. Customers were recognized for their ability to connect work, data, and experiences across the enterprise, and they were awarded in the following categories: Excellence in Workforce Engagement; Innovating with AI and Analytics; Driving Digital-First Engagement; Elevating Experience Management; and Customer Engagement Champion.

This year, Verint invited industry analysts Sheila McGee-Smith, founder and principal analyst of McGee-Smith Analytics, and Dan Miller, lead analyst and founder of Opus Research, to evaluate the finalists and determine the winner of each category.

According to Sheila McGee-Smith, “The finalists in all of the award categories have shown great commitment to customer experience. Their use of Verint solutions is very sophisticated, demonstrating that each company will do whatever it takes to meet customer needs and provide high quality customer experiences.”

Dan Miller also commented on the level of customer commitment. “Many of the finalists are using multiple Verint solutions, similar to a Swiss Army knife, while dealing with extreme circumstances brought on by the pandemic. Their in-depth knowledge of the technology and ability to successfully put it to use during these challenging times is impressive and reflects their ongoing commitment to serving their customers,” he said.
