Growth boosted by contact centers migrating to the cloud and adoption of DevOps
REDWOOD CITY, Calif., February 13, 2020 – Cyara closed the first half of its 2020 fiscal year with 50 percent year-over-year SaaS bookings growth and a 50 percent increase in year-over-year renewal bookings. Enterprise customers continued to depend on Cyara to ensure the highest-quality customer experience (CX), as evidenced by 95 percent gross customer retention and 120 percent net retention as current customers expand deployment and usage of the award-winning Cyara Automated CX Assurance Platform.
The company expanded its support for cloud-based contact center migrations and launched new integrations that support Agile development, DevOps initiatives, and incident management. The company added the Cyara Accelerator for Genesys Cloud to its suite of cloud migration offerings, and announced new integrations with Splunk, Jira, ServiceNow, and PagerDuty that further automate CX troubleshooting and accelerate issue resolution.
“We’re delighted to add thirty new customers to the Cyara family, and to see existing customers expand their use of the Cyara platform,” said Alok Kulkarni, CEO and co-founder of Cyara. “To further empower our customers, we’re making it a priority to support Agile and DevOps methodologies, and the move to cloud-based contact centers like Amazon Connect and Genesys Cloud.”
- Customers Realize Nearly 3X ROI
Cyara released the findings of Forrester’s Total Economic Impact™ (TEI) of Cyara, a commissioned study conducted by Forrester Consulting on behalf of Cyara, which showed that the Cyara CX Assurance Platform delivers 283 percent ROI within three years. The study showed that contact centers that implement Cyara experienced significant value, including dramatically reduced SEV1 errors, recapturing 80 percent of abandoned callers, and improving overall customer call quality. - Partner Momentum
Cyara joined forces with VoiceFoundry and MiraTech to help facilitate customer migrations to cloud-based platforms. VoiceFoundry is an AWS Advanced Consulting Partner focused on streamlining and improving the migration of contact centers to the Amazon Connect platform. Miratech, a global IT services and consulting company, has extensive experience implementing the Genesys CX Platform.

The Cyara Accelerator for Genesys Cloud is the company’s second platform-specific solution for cloud migration, following the launch of Cyara Accelerator for Amazon Connect earlier in the year.
