Communication & Collaboration
Empower your customers and end-users with contact center, voice, and video collaboration.
Better Customer Engagement Starts with Your Contact Center
Contact Center: Common Challenges
Separate systems for each communication method (call, email, text, and more), a result of point-solution investments without integration
A struggle to correlate data to evaluate the consumer journey, making it difficult to identify current system strengths and weaknesses
Customer complaints about call quality and routing, with no clear path to finding the root of the issue
Merger and acquisition activity leading to disparate, micro call centers using various systems and methodologies
Contact Center Challenges
Contact center consumer experiences can range from the positive, with quick and easy resolution, to the negative, resulting in frustration and ultimately customer churn. A multitude of interested departmental stakeholders - operations, IT, and the business - make investment decisions even more challenging.
Create a customer-centric contact center
Your evolving contact center must meet your business goals and growing customer expectations. Every investment you make in technology and personnel must positively impact the consumer experience to drive revenue for the organization.
Burwood’s Contact Center Maturity Model is a framework for understanding where you are today and what steps you should take to achieve tomorrow’s goals. Our contact center and cloud experts can help you navigate important considerations and ensure the best path forward for your contact center through our Contact Center Maturity Assessment.

Enterprise Voice Solutions for the Hybrid Workforce
People work together in different ways, and your collaboration environment should reflect the unique needs of your employees. Today’s mobile, remote workforce relies heavily on enterprise communication tools for voice, chat, and content collaboration.
An Integrated Strategy for Voice, Video, and Apps
Voice, application, and video technologies must integrate to deliver a productive, innovative working environment. Unfortunately, legacy technology and user habits can prevent organizations from investing in these forward-thinking technology upgrades.
Burwood’s collaboration consultants and engineers have experience in evaluating user needs, departmental requirements, and existing technology investments to design future-proof collaboration architectures. We help clients through the full lifecycle of unified communications deployment, training, and management.
Take a Cloud-First Approach with Microsoft Teams
If you’re invested in Microsoft licensing, supporting work-from-home users, or thinking about the next steps for your voice infrastructure: a Microsoft Teams integration or migration may be right for your enterprise. Burwood’s consulting team includes experts in platform migration, governance, and adoption.
With exponential increase of hybrid workforce requirements, many IT leaders are considering cloud platforms to satisfy not only collaboration and video needs, but enterprise voice too. Microsoft Teams is a cloud-based platform that can provide all three.
