SAN FRANCISCO, May 22, 2017 /PRNewswire/ -- Genesys® (www.genesys.com), the global leader in omnichannel customer experience (CX) and contact center solutions, has been named a Leader in the Gartner 2017 Magic Quadrant for Contact Center Infrastructure, Worldwide¹ and the vendor positioned furthest for "completeness of vision" for the ninth consecutive time. For the first time, Genesys has also achieved the highest placement overall for its "ability to execute."

The 2017 report on the Magic Quadrant for Contact Center Infrastructure, Worldwide, evaluated 12 different contact center infrastructure vendors on completeness of vision and ability to execute.
