The European contact center as a service (CCaaS) market is enjoying significant attention, although it remains in a growth stage. The market comprises more than 150 vendors of varying sizes that offer solutions to companies and organizations across a broad range of verticals, with financial services, healthcare, public sector, utilities, retail, education, hospitality, and tourism among the most prominent. The migration to the cloud accelerated across Europe in 2020, and concerns about multi-tenant cloud deployment of mission-critical applications have largely dissipated. Also, companies have realized that the cloud offers a flexible and agile means of improving CC functionalities at highly competitive prices and with predictable monthly invoices.
The COVID-19 pandemic has pushed every contact center in Europe to embrace the work-at-home-agent (WAHA) modality and move their employees out of their offices to their homes (e.g., 68.8% of the outsourced agents serving European companies were working remotely by the end of 2020). Owing to the challenges brought about by the new normal, CCaaS vendors and service providers had to respond to the remote working needs of the industry quickly, provide free/trial offers for remote agents, position aggressive pricing models, and accelerate the migration to the cloud or hybrid deployment alternatives in a remarkably short timeframe. In addition, new reward, recruitment, and training models were implemented to support the remote modality. The post-pandemic scenario will likely feature a hybrid CC environment in which many employees and agents perform their tasks—either part-time or full-time—from a remote location.
