This recognition is further validation of our omnichannel contact center solution with their report noting our industry-leading ease-of-use and true omnichannel capabilities, both for omnichannel customer conversations and omnichannel quality management," said Michael McCloskey, Chief Executive Officer at Bright Pattern.

Bright Pattern's strengths as recognized by Frost & Sullivan include:

Breadth of Platform Capabilities

• Bright Pattern is one of the first providers to offer customer service messaging apps, particularly in an omnichannel environment.
• Out-of-box integrations to CRMs and applications like Microsoft Teams for remote agents

High Customer Rankings/Customer-Focused Development

In winter 2019, G2 Crowd noted that Bright Pattern had the highest ROI in the industry per customer reviews and the fastest time to deploy at half the industry average.
• A customer and partner-led organization, Bright Pattern's R&D is heavily driven by customer/partner feedback. For instance, its recently launched QM product saw 80 top feature requests from partners.

The buyers guide also provided customer recommendations, in which Bright Pattern was recommended as the best fit for companies looking for an omnichannel contact center solution, contact center artificial intelligence, and omnichannel communications for IT Service Management:

• Artificial Intelligence: "For companies that are looking to infuse AI into customer contact, Bright Pattern's Bright AI provides a plethora of choices as to how to do so, [including] integration with RPA vendors, intelligent bots, and messaging applications. In fact, the various technologies can easily be combined (e.g., creating a messaging application that provides instant access to a chatbot for assistance)."
• ITSM and Service Management Enrichment: "For companies that want to extend investments in legacy service management platforms yet enrich service management through AI and automation, Bright Pattern for Service Management would be a good fit and provide solid ROI."

Companies of all sizes select Bright Pattern to power their customer experience because of its easy-to-use yet powerful omnichannel platform, offering traditional channels and emerging channels like Facebook Messenger, in-app customer support, enterprise functionality, and cloud-first architecture.
