8x8 Conversation IQ now generally available

8x8 has announced availability of 8x8 Conversation IQ, which extends contact centre capabilities including quality management and speech analytics to any 8x8 cloud communications user.

The new offering applies conversational AI to help organisations deliver consistent experiences across the entire enterprise, for all user roles, from the contact centre to the front desk and the back office.

8x8 Conversation IQ is delivered via the 8x8 XCaaS platform. The product enables team leaders and supervisors throughout an organisation to oversee, evaluate, score and analyse voice interactions.

It provides easy to use, consistent and automated evaluation, reporting, and analytics capabilities that deliver AI-infused actionable insights into employees’ communications effectiveness, process adherence, and regulatory compliance. In addition, 8x8 Conversation IQ supports voice interactions on Microsoft Teams endpoints via the 8x8 Voice for Microsoft Teams integration.

Hunter Middleton, chief product officer at 8x8 (pictured), explained, “Enterprises are looking to strengthen employee performance and optimize customer experience, but traditionally the solutions have been siloed in only one part of the organisation. By owning the entire platform, we can extend quality management and speech analytics capabilities to team leaders to drive coaching and performance management capabilities across an entire organization.

“8x8 Conversation IQ demonstrates our continued commitment to enhancing the power of the integrated 8x8 XCaaS solution by providing both employee and customer engagement capabilities across the entire platform.”

8x8 channel partners in the UK include Charterhouse, Computacenter, NSL and Softcat.
