As more and more customer interactions originate online, we continue to enjoy unprecedented demand for our patented approach to delivering Virtual Agent technology to the enterprise."

IntelliResponse's industry-leading number of customer deployments demonstrates that enterprise corporations are seeing significant value added from virtual agents to their overall customer service program.

"In terms of industries, we're seeing significant interest from B2C enterprises like banks, credit unions, P&C insurers, utilities, ecommerce, and retail organizations," said Mike Hennessy, Vice President, Marketing at IntelliResponse. "From a customer service perspective, the major challenge these organizations face is finding a way to efficiently deliver an outstanding self-service experience across all their interaction channels and geographic locations, in the language of their customer's preference. These are the challenges we continually help organizations overcome, and reflecting back on over 365 live customer-facing deployments, we've built one of the most knowledgeable and capable team of experts in the industry."
