Quadient Inspire - Open Road CCM

As CCM shifts from isolated documents to connected interactions that create a personalized customer experience, enterprises that have been relying on the same software for many years are beginning to assess whether their solution is keeping pace with the market. Many have stayed with the same vendor to avoid the cost and complexity of migration, but as customer expectations for a frictionless, omnichannel experience rise, businesses are viewing legacy systems less as a stabilizing force and more as a risk to future growth.

Five Signs Your CCM Platform Isn't Serving You | Landing Page

Customer communications technology is evolving faster than ever. While once used to generate high volumes of printed documents for the sole purpose of conveying critical business information, today, enterprises are using Customer Communications Management (CCM) software to drive the complete lifecycle of pre- to post-sale customer engagement.

Inspire AnyPrem CCM | Quadient

Traditionally, Customer Communications Management (CCM) software has been deployed on-premise, installed on the customer's servers or physical hardware. While on-premise remains a viable option, as cloud adoption emerges as a driving force within the industry, CCM vendors are re-architecting their solutions to support various cloud deployment models, including Infrastructure-as-a-Service (IaaS), Platform-as-a-Service (PaaS), and Software-as-a-Service (SaaS). With different vendors offering diffe...

Should I Stay, or Should I Go? | Blog

Now that I have you humming that iconic song by The Clash…let’s talk software! I’ve been thinking a lot about that song as I hear about companies sounding the alarm about their Customer Communications Management (CCM) software being sunsetted, lacking an innovative product roadmap, not having a migration plan, and not having an easy on-ramp for digital transformation.If you're faced with these challenges, you might ask yourself: According to IDC's Worldwide Customer Communication Management Soft...

Decision Guidance for Those at a Crossroads | Blog Promo

The current mind state of many IT Leaders and CTOs can be best captured by the lyrics of the famous song by The Clash, "Should I Stay or Should I Go?" as a growing number of enterprises sound the alarm on their legacy CCM platforms. From mandatory migrations, years without substantial innovation, and no clear on-ramp to #digitaltransformation or cloud #modernization, many are feeling at a crossroads with their current solution. At Quadient, we understand that your legacy system is deeply embedded into your processes and storing hundreds, if not thousands, of templates, making #migration a daunting notion. At the same time, staying with a vendor that's bringing you on a fast track toward stagnation and weakening your #CustomerExperience and enterprise infrastructure can present an even greater risk. To empower your decision, we've compiled key market insights that illustrate how the state of CCM software is changing, as well as resources to assess if your current solution is keeping pace with evolving use cases and AnyPrem deployment capabilities - or demonstrating the signs of software decline.

Signs It’s Time to Consolidate | Guide

For many organizations, what may have started as a straightforward solution has since morphed into a tangled web of disconnected platforms — each introduced to address a specific channel requirement, but creating inefficiencies and silos in the process. Since traditional CCM platforms were originally designed for print output, businesses have spent years layering on single-point digital solutions to keep up with evolving customer expectations. A tool for email. A tool for SMS. A tool for web portals. Every time a new channel gains traction, another tool is added to the mix. This lack of cohesion not only complicates operations, but also introduces compliance, quality control, and brand integrity risks.

Unleash the Power of Unified Communications | Brochure

Legacy CCM systems are not only expensive to maintain but also inflexible and slow to adapt to market and regulatory changes. These outdated systems have evolved into a tangled web of overlapping solutions, making them difficult to manage and synchronize. Adjusting communication templates or processes involves lengthy procedures and extensive IT involvement, resulting in high labor costs and bottlenecks.

Simplifying the Process of Customer Comm. Template Rebuild | Blog

Picture this: Your team is in the middle of a busy quarter, everything is running smoothly — until suddenly, you're asked to migrate all your communication templates to a new software platform. The familiar screens you’ve been using for years disappear, replaced by a confusing interface that looks like it was designed by a tech wizard. Switching to new software can feel like trying to drive a spaceship when you’re used to bicycles. Both will get you from point A to point B, but one requires a lot more technical skills to operate it effectively. For your team, there’s bound to be a knowledge gap as you work to familiarize yourselves with the new user interface and workflows, and this steep learning curve increases the likelihood of mistakes and productivity challenges.

Consolidate Platforms - Transform the Customer Experience | Brochure

Year by year, project by project, and trend by trend your enterprise has assembled a large collection of communication systems. What seemed to be a series of easy solutions to isolated problems has morphed into a tangled mess of technologies that hurts the customer experience. Each of your legacy customer communications technologies have years of complex, often outdated regulations baked into them, creating an unstable foundation. Quadient helps companies create a nimble, effective, and unified customer communications infrastructure to improve the customer experience.
