Businesses around the world are rapidly moving their communications and information technologies (IT) to the cloud. Frost & Sullivan expects the global hosted IP telephony and UCaaS installed base to expand at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 23.8 percent  from 2016 to 2023.

"Providers must improve customer satisfaction and retention by deploying distributed, geographically-redundant architectures that ensure greater service availability and also help improve voice quality. Forward-thinking providers must also place strong focus on the customer experience and enhance their solution implementation and lifecycle management capabilities, including more streamlined sales and provisioning processes, a more holistic and custom-tailored approach to customer technology needs and business objectives, and a broader team effort within the provider organization to ensure successful deployments," said Elka Popova, VP Digital Transformation.

Frost & Sullivan has found that Jive Communications' exceptional attention to the overall customer experience sets it apart from its UCaaS competitors. The company ensures greater customer satisfaction through a robust network architecture, excellent customer lifecycle management, compelling communications and collaboration solutions, and a sustainable business strategy as seen below:

"Customer expectations of their UCaaS providers are constantly rising. Businesses require exceptional service from the initial consultations, to implementation, to ongoing troubleshooting and service updates/upgrades," said Popova. "Jive's executive management consistently stresses the importance of delivering a stellar customer experience. The provider's exceptional focus on customer service and support is evidenced by its NPS of 68, which significantly exceeds the industry average."

Also significant is the fact that many of Jive's customers have participated in the provider's referral programs, recommending Jive to other businesses. Customers praise Jive's features as well as the professionalism and service excellence dedication of its staff.

Jive's distributed cloud architecture, holistic approach to supporting customer needs and service delivery, compelling solution bundles, and effective business strategy have propelled the company to becoming one of the leading providers in the North American UCaaS market. For its strong overall performance, Jive Communications has earned Frost & Sullivan's 2017 North American Customer Service Leadership Award.
