Talkdesk Named a Visionary in 2018 Gartner Magic Quadrant for Contact Center as a Service, North America for Second Consecutive Year


SAN FRANCISCO, October 19, 2018 — Talkdesk, the enterprise contact center platform, today announced its recognition as a Visionary by Gartner in the 2018 Magic Quadrant for Contact Center as a Service, North America. This is the second consecutive year Talkdesk has been placed in the Visionaries quadrant, this year furthering its position on the Ability to Execute.


Gartner performed a rigorous evaluation of 10 call center vendors for completeness of vision and ability to execute. According to Gartner, “Visionaries have strong multichannel product and service capabilities and a clear strategy for sales, marketing and business development. They differentiate themselves by adding unique functionality and/or delivery capabilities.”


“We see Gartner’s recognition of Talkdesk as a Visionary, for the second consecutive year, as confirmation of our overall product strategy and commitment to customer success, satisfaction and empowerment,” said Tiago Paiva, CEO and Founder of Talkdesk. “Talkdesk is purpose-built on a modern, cloud-native architecture. We believe our innovative delivery model, and the speed at which we are able to deliver new features and functionality, sets us apart within the CCaaS industry.”


“This is the fastest most complete contact center “in a box” for the cloud. They are releasing new features every month. From an administrative perspective, this is the easiest product on the market. Straightforward pricing, all-inclusive, no hidden or confusing pricing models. This also includes the full VOIP/SIP dial tone and toll free numbers. Other solutions may offer the contact center features, but you have to bring your own SIP/VOIP provider.” — Director, Enterprise Architecture and Technology Innovation, Government Industry

Talkdesk solutions are easily adaptable to the evolving needs of customers, resulting in increased productivity, customer satisfaction and cost savings.
