Five9 Recognized as an Innovation and Growth Leader in the Latin American Cloud Contact Center Market by Frost & Sullivan

Five9 is growing at a rapid rate in Latin America, and its practical AI and automation solutions have placed it high on the innovation scale.

SAN RAMON, Calif.–(BUSINESS WIRE)–Five9, Inc. (NASDAQ: FIVN), a leading provider of the intelligent cloud contact center, announced today that it has been recognized by Frost & Sullivan as an Innovation and Growth leader in the Frost Radar™: Latin American Cloud Contact Center Market, 2021. The benchmarking report identified Five9 as a top performer in the region, noting its people, platform, delivery, and flexibility as key drivers of success.

Five9 is growing at a rapid rate in Latin America, increasing the number of seats sold and deployed in the region by more than 130% in 2020. Key to this success has been the strong relationship with local partners in Latin America (LATAM).

“The expanding partner ecosystem is increasing awareness and allowing further adoption of Five9 solutions in Latin America,” said Juan Gonzalez, Research Director, Information and Communications Technologies, Frost & Sullivan. “The company is also a top performer on the innovation scale, investing heavily in AI and automation to enrich its native capabilities.”

In 2020, Five9 launched Five9 Intelligent Virtual Agent (IVA), and Five9 Workflow Automation (WFA) to help contact center and CX leaders implement practical AI solutions. These offerings help companies to empower their agents, scale their operations, and increase efficiency and connectivity between the contact center and the broader organization.

Five9 also introduced four unique WFA applications. These include: operational intelligence dashboards that increase business agility by providing actionable real-time information; proactive notifications that enhance the customer experience with outbound alerts and updates; digital outreach to increase contact rates by providing alternative engagement channels; and social engagement to help organizations monitor social networking sites, react intelligently, automate follow-up, and drive positive business outcomes.

Since 2001, the Five9 Intelligent Cloud Contact Center has been continually evolving its core underlying hyperscale architecture to include additional microservices and enhanced security, reliability, and scalability, all to help customers as they scale their CX operations.

“We are honored to be recognized by Frost & Sullivan as an innovation and growth leader in the Latin American cloud contact center market,” said Dan Burkland, President, Five9. “We look forward to continuing to expand our international footprint with a focus on product innovation, excellence in go-to-market execution, and a strong and evolving partner ecosystem.”

Welcome

The vision behind everything in Futurum’s Custom Research practice is this: research should show you what is happening, what comes next, and what to do about it. It should be personal to each audience, easy for people to grasp, and structured so LLMs can reason over it accurately. And it should be fast and turnkey; you want answers now, not another project to carry for quarters.

Whether you are defining business, channel, or go-to-market strategy; evaluating vendors or justifying ROI; or commissioning research to fill an emerging market need, we have your back, with a program that answers your questions with the objectivity and credibility to drive real decisions.

To do it, we bring unmatched data to bear: Futurum research, surveys, and market projections; validated market feeds; ETR’s 15 years of insight from 10,000 technology decision-makers; G2’s buyer and user data; and what our analysts hear every day. Add leading primary collection, from AI-moderated voice interviews to surveys and analyst-led interviews, all turnkey, and every project comes out credible, nuanced, and actionable.

And we don’t just drop the results in your lap. For internal work, we provide analyst-led sessions, interactive dashboards, and a range of formats. For market-facing work, Futurum delivers turnkey activation and amplification that actually gets seen, by people and by LLMs, through our media and share of voice. This is research that moves decisions and markets.

We will meet you wherever you are, from a fast-turn brief to a multi-year program, and shape the work to your goals, timeline, and budget. The right program for your moment.

If any of this is useful, I would love to talk.
