PLEASANTON, Calif.

As more companies realize the benefits of hosted offerings, demand for the Five9 Virtual Call Center has grown rapidly and now the company is processing several million phone calls every day.
“Five9 has established itself as a pacesetter in the on-demand call center industry,” said Jim Dvorkin, Five9’s CTO. “Companies considering building a new call center or upgrading existing call center infrastructure see the benefits of a hosted service, and find it a real alternative to buying premise-based equipment.

Five9’s Virtual Call Center offers customers numerous options to building an on-demand call center that is scalable, reliable and flexible, and requires little overhead – just PCs with a broadband connection.

Five9 customers can also easily adapt and change their call center configuration to meet the demands of their business, and monitor performance of their call center agents in real time.
“Five9’s on-demand platform continues to add customers at a rapid pace as more businesses adopt the on-demand call center model to achieve business savings while taking advantage of a comprehensive feature-set,” said Five9’s president and CEO, Brian Silverman. “We believe this is just the beginning of a growing demand, and look forward to continuing to accelerate our market leadership.”
