Report Highlights

- Speech analytics has hit its stride: In 2016, the number of speech analytics seats increased by a very healthy 30.1% over the previous 12 months. The reason is clear: speech analytics has crossed over and become a must-have solution that supplies organizations with customer and prospect insights and opportunities, and helps companies comply with regulatory requirements and improve productivity, all while enhancing the customer experience and journey. There is no other application in the market that delivers the same or similar benefits for the companies that use industry best practices to optimize their implementations.

- Vendors are continuing to improve and expand their speech analytics solutions: Speech analytics vendors are investing to improve the underlying technologies and capabilities of their solutions by delivering enhanced speech engines, better integration capabilities, and more flexible and customizable dashboards and reports. These improvements are converting speech analytics into big data tools that can be integrated with existing third-party business intelligence solutions. Vendors are continuing to add support for more languages; they are also improving their cloud deployment models and services. They are listening to their customers and prospects and are prioritizing customer-driven innovation.

- The speech analytics market has undergone considerable change in the past year: Market consolidation has altered the competitive landscape, making room for new vendors and offerings. Users have a variety of options, as no two solutions are the same.

- Real-time speech analytics is ready: Real-time speech analytics is fighting for large-scale adoption and acceptance. Organizations are already using these applications to identify angry and upset callers, to prevent small issues from escalating. Vendors are starting to do a better job of combining real-time speech analytics with next-best-action and real-time guidance solutions to allow agents to deliver personalized sales and service.
