Background
Faced with the challenge of transitioning from on-premises Genesys to Genesys Cloud, Falck made the strategic choice to outsource voice infrastructure management using AudioCodes’ Voice as a Service (VaaS) solutions. The integration of AudioCodes Live Services for Voice Migration to the Cloud and AudioCodes Routing Manager (ARM) not only enhanced Falck’s global voice infrastructure, but also achieved paramount objectives of ensuring compliance, flexibility and scalability, freeing up internal IT resources and streamlining operational costs. This successful partnership not only met Falck’s current needs, but also set the stage for expansive growth into multiple countries and regions, marking a pivotal success in their evolution towards a dynamic and resilient voice infrastructure.
Falck’s decision to migrate its on-premises Genesys contact center to the cloud was not merely a technical shift, but a strategic move aligning with the latest advancements in modern cloud-based solutions. Recognizing the complexity of this migration and the ongoing need for efficient voice infrastructure management, Falck sought a trusted partner with expertise and cutting-edge technology. AudioCodes, a natural choice grounded in a longstanding partnership, was chosen not just for its solutions but for their reliability, innovation and expert support consistently delivered over an extended collaboration.
