The products combine to enable total e-commerce integration between the customer response center, order management applications, and fulfillment center operations. Don VanderBeke, executive vice president of marketing and support for GERS says, "CallCenter@nywhere truly revolutionizes what can be accomplished in the call center environment because it is the only transaction processing platform that encompasses both the medium of transmission as well as the content itself.

CallCenter@nywhere is a comprehensive solution for virtual and traditional call center implementations. It offers literally all the pieces of the call center puzzle in one pre-integrated suite of applications.

CallCenter@nywhere has been fully integrated to the CustomerDirect solution to enable customer service representatives "at-a-click" access to all customer interaction and purchase history, inventory, and order status information. This collaboration results in truly integrated enterprise communications that enable connected, empowered customer service agents to provide accurate, timely information across all customer communication channels.
