Contact Center

the open marketplace

Forward thinking Contact Centers are creative animals, innovating new ways of doing business using based on Best in Class applications, rather than on loyalty to a technology, a brand, or a static strategy that may have been devised years prior.  Today, Contact Centers adjust on the fly, taking advantage of new technology and new applications because they are the right tool at the right time. 

Merrill and Associates supports the open marketplace and we partner with a portfolio of Avaya DevConnect partners who build value and opportunity into their products.  These tools all dovetail with the Avaya systems that are core to our approach to the marketplace. 

Here are the Open Marketplace products that we develop and support today:
