“It was one of the best conferences I’ve attended and I left not only with new insights but also made some great friends! Looking forward to applying these insights to drive positive change in our organization!”
Malika Hyder, Senior Product Manager, Bell Canada
Following a very successful Cyara Xchange 2024, let’s take a moment to reflect on the valuable insights and benefits it brought.
Xchange was held in San Diego from March 4th to 6th. It served as more than just an event to explore the best ways to achieve a flawless, AI-led omnichannel customer experience (CX). Xchange was a gathering of like-minded companies and professionals, all deeply passionate about serving customers, coming together to share knowledge and experiences.
Over 100 CX professionals and experts from around the globe discussed their challenges, pain points, and solutions. Throughout the three-day event, Cyara facilitated a diverse array of sessions, covering technical how-to’s, strategic insights, and visionary discussions.
“Xchange was a wealth of knowledge sharing! Cyara continues to impress with their ability to spearhead the delivery of solutions to effectively validate the most innovative areas seamlessly—we need all of the help we can get when it comes to certifying GenAI’s ‘means,’ so we can all ensure a stable and compliant GenAI ‘outcome/experience.’”

The Key Learnings
Our event keynote featured Navrina Singh, Founder and CEO of Credo AI, and Alok Kulkarni, Cyara CEO. Here, the spotlight was firmly placed on the transformative influence of AI in reshaping CX practices. This discussion delved into the delicate balance between enhancing CX and mitigating the anticipated, and often unforeseen, risks associated with AI. Alok also offered insights into navigating challenges related to large language models (LLMs). These obstacles include inaccuracy and potential misuse, as well as concerns regarding privacy and security, all of which stem from the unpredictable nature of these technologies.

With a staggering $1.6 trillion lost annually due to subpar customer journeys, the drive to enhance these journeys and deliver superior experiences has never been more pressing. At Xchange, our customers and partners openly shared the challenges they encounter, and how they are overcoming these.
Salesforce highlighted how Voice Assure empowers them to maintain an impressive monthly connection rate of at least 99%. Assurant detailed their use of automation to markedly enhance testing practices, streamline operations, and achieve greater efficiency. Kenway Consulting shed light on their utilization of Velocity and Botium to aid a large telecommunications company in developing a robust test automation program.
Additionally, Cigna highlighted their use of automated testing, including regression and performance testing, as well as live system monitoring. ResultsCX and Boehringer Ingelheim emphasized the strategic role of CX monitoring in enhancing overall business resilience and addressing issues proactively. NICE described their partnership with Cyara, emphasizing its role in ensuring optimal customer experiences and operational excellence. Genesys delved into emerging practices, and their focus on delivering flawless experiences. The event also featured a dynamic panel discussion involving representatives of TD Bank, Prudential, and Dexcom.
Katy Cobian, Principal Analyst at Forrester, took the opportunity to highlight three priorities that should be on the agenda of all CX leadership:
- Aligning the entire organization around customer obsession
- Ensuring that all CX technology is mission-ready
- Activating employee culture and experience to ensure sustained transformation for the future
