HOBOKEN, N.J.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--

NICE inContact (Nasdaq:NICE) today announced its new first-class ecosystem program for product partners and IT developers. This is the most extensive technology ecosystem currently available in the customer experience market, with more than 250 APIs, and will allow NICE inContact customers to benefit from the market’s widest range of cloud customer experience solutions.

The program enables partners to hook into the leading capabilities of the NICE inContact CXone™ platform, an open, cloud native foundation that powers customer experience innovation with Omnichannel Routing, Workforce Optimization, Analytics, Automation and Artificial Intelligence. Partners are able to amplify the value of the platform through the development of integrated value-add applications, and the exchange of information and services.

CXexchange offers a centralized, state of the art marketplace for developers to market and sell their CXone-based applications. CXexchange, which already hosts over 65 ISV partners, allows NICE and inContact customers to easily access the full list of partner applications, and enables them to:

• Compare solutions, view product demos, read reviews, and ask questions before contacting a partner
• Save time in the technology selection process
• Decrease the time-to-implementation of new functionality

In addition, DEVone offers partners broad tools and resources to enable them to create new applications on CXone, including:

• Over 250 already-available APIs, with new ones being published with each release
• Full, around-the-clock access to extensive, interactive documentation and support
• Access to a developer community with forums to share knowledge and experiences with other customers, partners and NICE inContact programmers

Barak Eilam, CEO, NICE:

“Open technology platforms allow access to vastly more technology capabilities than any one company could provide, at a far lower cost and with much greater scalability. With the launch of DEVone and CXexchange, we have opened our doors to technology partners and developers, inviting them to join the market’s most extensive ecosystem program. The value of this program for our customers and for the market is the creation of tailored cloud customer experience solutions that will help our customers meet their specific needs and business goals.”
