Zoom has revealed that the Zoom Contact Center has hit over 500 customers in the past six quarters.
The rate of onboarding new contact centre customers builds upon its promising start of 350 customers in one year.
It is expecting Zoom Contact Center to drive significant growth by becoming a full contact centre suite, through the additions of workforce management, virtual agent, quality management, and more.
The company’s Q2 2024 earnings call also divulged that it has been rolling out roughly 90 new features and enhancements per quarter.
Eric S. Yuan, Zoom Founder, and CEO, reflected on the past quarter: “Our mission of delivering limitless human connection remains core as we continue to innovate and expand our platform to help bring value and enhanced productivity to our customers with new AI features like Zoom IQ Meeting Summary and Team Chat Compose, as well as Intelligent Director.
“I’m also proud of the team for reinventing modern customer experiences with Zoom Virtual Agent and Zoom Contact Center, which surpassed 500 customers in Q2.”
Many of the customers that were initially meetings customers are either moving to Zoom One, adding Zoom Phone, or considering Zoom Contact Center.
Conversely, Zoom Contact Center is anticipated to increase adoption for other Zoom products and services, creating “more and more synergies”, according to Zoom’s Chief Financial Officer, Kelly Steckelberg.
Steckelberg believes the contact centre’s cost per seat of $70 is “highly disruptive” compared to others in the market.
Yuan pointed out that its Contact Center has also been built with “organic AI features”, including the AI Assistant, Claude, and artificial intelligence is going to “play a big role” in the future of the Zoom Contact Cente
