Noble Systems Celebrates 25 Years of Innovation and Service to the Contact Center Market Letter from the CEO Reflections on a Milestone Event -1989 Noble Systems Logo On August 29, 1989, Noble Systems began its mission to deliver innovative products and services for the contact center marketplace. Throughout the last two-and-a-half decades, our journey has taken us from a start-up technology provider to one of the industry’s leading developers of contact center solutions. Here are some milestone achievements from Noble Systems’ 25-year history: > Founded in 1989, Noble Systems began as a small group of contact center veterans who were looking to develop a new system for automating outbound contacts. Today, Noble Systems has almost 400 employees in offices around the world. The average tenure for employees is 5+ years. > Noble has developed a world-wide network of offices to serve our global client base. In July of this year, we opened our new state-of-theart corporate headquarters in Atlanta. In addition, we have offices in Austin, Delhi, Manchester, Manila, Melbourne, Oklahoma City, São Paolo and Sydney. Noble also has value-added reseller partners in Brazil, India, Mexico, the Philippines, South Africa, the UK, and other countries. > Noble solutions power millions of customer contacts every day, from tens of thousands of agent stations at 4,000+ client sites around the world. A 2014 Frost & Sullivan report ranks Noble as the leading outbound contact center technology provider in the U.S. and one of the largest providers in the world. > Noble’s technology line has expanded from the ATOMS® automated dialer to encompass a full range of products for the broad spectrum of customer communications – including Unified Communications, Business Process Management and Analytics. Noble’s Enterprise platform offers a unified suite of multi-channel inbound, outbound and blended contact processing, strategy planning, and resource management tools for companies of all sizes. > In 2012, Noble introduced an innovative Cloud platform which has been growing at a tremendous pace. Noble’s unique offer is the only true enterprise solution in the market, giving companies the full functionality of our proven premise-based Enterprise platform in a cloud environment. > Noble’s innovative development efforts have been rewarded numerous times, receiving recognition from a variety of industry organizations. Most recently, we have received awards for our Salesforce.com integration, TCPA Wireless Compliance Solution, Mobile management tools, and cloudbased service offers. > Noble Systems is actively involved within the industry as a member of industry organizations, such as the AA-ISP, ACA, ARDA, ATA, DMA, SOCAP and others. Working with these groups, Noble Systems is part of a unified voice with a common goal to promote the contact center segment. As a call center operator in 1985, I was facing the same basic daily challenges that you deal with in your organizations. I knew that there had to be a more efficient way for my agents to do their jobs. Working with my father, we assembled a small but dedicated team and worked to create the first automated Noble dialer. 25 years ago, we incorporated James K Noble, Jr those efforts into Noble Systems Corporation, with the goal of sharing this technology with the contact center market to help other call centers see the same gains in productivity and profits that we had achieved. As one of our early employees said recently, “When I started working for Noble Systems, the entire company would go out for lunch...at one table.” (That employee is Marcio Santos, one of several 20+ year Noble veterans.) It has been a tremendous experience to watch the evolution of contact center technologies and to see our organization emerge as a market leader for unified and best-of-breed point solutions. Frost & Sullivan recently named Noble Systems as the #1 Provider in the Outbound Dialing Market for the second consecutive year -- a year during which we continued to increase marketshare over our closest competitor. Never a group to rest on our laurels, we are moving forward with introducing new features and tools, such as our Real-Time Speech Analytics solution and Total Contact best time to call application that allows you to manage the use of landline and wireless contacts to optimize your chance of getting the right contact at the right time while meeting compliance guidelines. When I talk to our clients, the conversations often begin with how our advanced technologies help them succeed in their businesses, but they always lead to the amazing quality of the people that make up Noble Systems. Our success would not have been possible without the team of professionals that have joined us in the journey, and I am looking forward to seeing what the next quarter century has in store for us.
