Verint Systems today announced that research and technology advisory firm Ventana Research has named it as the top “Hot Vendor” in its newly published 2016 Value Index for Workforce Optimization.

“Due to Verint’s market-leading and extensive range of capabilities in its WFO solution, the company has again ranked top overall in our Workforce Optimization Value Index,” comments Richard Snow, Vice President and Research Director of the Customer and Contact Center Research Practice, Ventana Research. “The company is a well-established global vendor of WFO systems. Over the last year, it has continued to invest in developing a suite of products that helps enable it to retain the top position in our 2016 Value Index.

Ventana Research defines workforce optimization as “the use of people, processes, information and technology to effectively manage the workforce that handles interactions with customers. To accomplish such management, workforce optimization today must include employees situated across the enterprise…and a variety of applications for the capture and recording of interactions, quality management, training and coaching, agent compensation, workforce management and analytics.”

The firm also notes that “modern workforce optimization systems can help organizations adopt best practices, adhere to operational targets, maximize customer and employee satisfaction, comply with regulations and achieve targeted business outcomes.”
