SALT LAKE CITY--(BUSINESS WIRE)--

NICE inContact, a NICE (Nasdaq: NICE) business, today announced that a top five U.S. financial institution with global operations has selected NICE inContact CXone, the world’s #1 cloud customer experience platform, for a comprehensive transformation to the cloud with a 4,000 seat deployment.

The digital banking innovator chose CXone to power quick and contextual omnichannel customer experiences across multiple lines of business, while supporting the operational needs of this heavily regulated industry. The organization aims to reduce average handle time (AHT) by 30% in support of its dedication to providing simple and convenient financial products and services. The bank was looking for a robust, open and flexible cloud contact center solution, and plans integration with multiple CRM systems. As an open and extensible platform, NICE inContact CXone provides hundreds of APIs and enables integrations with over 100 partner solutions, as well as customer-specific extensions, supporting a broad technology ecosystem that extends its capabilities.

Customers not only expect fast service, but service that is convenient, contextual and personalized to their individual preferences. Highly regulated financial institutions must remain compliant while achieving exceptional levels of customer engagement in a mobile, on-demand and omnichannel digital environment.
