Sydney, Australia – January 13, 2021 – Avaya (NYSE: AVYA), a global leader in solutions to enhance and simplify communications and collaboration, today announced an
expansion of its artificial intelligence (AI)-powered customer experience capabilities for Avaya OneCloud CCaaS customers through an extended relationship with Amazon Web Services (AWS).
Avaya has joined the AWS Partner Network (APN) as an AWS Select Technology Partner. As an AWS partner offering AWS
Contact Centre Intelligence (CCI) solutions, Avaya can enable customers to leverage AWS AI Services and Machine Learning
(ML) capabilities to drive more rewarding customer and employee experiences across both voice and digital channels
through natural, conversation-driven interactions powered by AI and ML.
Avaya’s integration with AWS CCI strengthens its portfolio of contact centre solutions delivering enhanced customer
engagement through better, faster, and more relevant insights and actions, building brand preference while also
improving operational efficiency. Avaya OneCloud CCaaS customers can benefit from AWS ML-powered intelligence to improve
self-service, analyse calls in real time to assist agents, and learn from each contact centre interaction with post-call
analytics, giving customers and customer-facing employees better, faster, and more rewarding interactions.
“As a leading contact centre solution provider with an installed base of approximately six million seats globally, Avaya
continues to expand AI capabilities that are evolving the contact centre into what is now the customer experience
centre,” said Eric Rossman, Vice-President, Technology Partners and Alliances, Avaya.
“With real-time insights and fuller context for each customer at your fingertips, brands can meet and exceed their
customers’ expectations with each interaction, leading to greater satisfaction and brand loyalty. With AWS, Avaya
delivers new AI and machine learning innovation that improves the performance and efficiency of customer experience
teams, but more importantly, enables deeper and more meaningful human connections between organizations and their
customers.”

centre. AWS is also a key member of A.I.Connect, an Avaya-led initiative that brings together an ecosystem of vendors and developers taking an active part in building
