Avaya's technology innovation is primarily with our customers' success in mind, and through our deep and wide engagements with the Government and private sector in the region and beyond, we have developed a keen understanding of what various sectors seek as competitive differentiators in their technology investment. The clear preference is for a way to make their engagement smoother and richer, and this is where Avaya's engagement solutions come to the fore."
