The Calabrio ONE Awards: Recognizing Customer Experience Success in the Contact Center

At Calabrio, we are constantly inspired by how our customers are using the Calabrio ONE platform to drive real business change. We watch rapidly growing companies scale to meet the needs of their expanding customer base. We see customers tap into the voice of the customer (VoC) and use the data coming into the contact center to make emotional connections that build brand loyalty. And we’ve witnessed organizations bring together disparate sources of data to paint a picture of what customers really want.

In 2017, we decided to recognize and celebrate customer organizations who are leveraging Calabrio to drive the future of workforce optimization, and customer and employee experience, so we introduced the ONE Awards during our Calabrio Customer Connect (C3) conference. Spanning nine categories, the ONE Awards recognize high-achieving companies using Calabrio ONE to drive innovation in the contact center and beyond.

Today, we are proud to announce the 2018 Calabrio ONE Award winners. These companies are transforming the entire customer experience, and we are excited to be on this journey with them.

The winners of the ONE Awards include:

THE OPTIMIZER – LendingClub
