model. Everybody within the organization can then be part of one or multiple
UCCs. 'Anywhere365 is not only a
solution for a contact center. Also other
departments can be part of the Rethink

integrates and centralizes the contact
center in and with the organization and
helps to improve the customer journey.’
According to Van der Breggen
Anywhere365 offers multiple integration possibilities. It can integrate with
any CRM or ERP system via API, web
services or SQL. Do not make the
project too big, start with a couple of
UCC's, e.g. for the reception and one
department. That way you build up
expertise. If you have achieved an
acceptable level of knowledge you can
always increase the number of UCC’s.

help organizations to work customer
smarter and that it will make internal
processes more real time.

increases our chances for international growth.' WORKSTREAMPEOPLE
keeps on further developing
Anywhere365 continuously. 'Currently
we are adding location presence to
the platform. Imagine there is an
incident or emergency, Anywhere365
makes it possible that the emergency
response staff member who is the
closest by gets toasted by Lync. If a
staff member is 8 meters from his
headset the system routes the call
automatically. That is Rethink contact
