Sound familiar?

The problems we get called in to fix.

  • Callers bounce between queues.Transfers pile up, handle time climbs and customers repeat themselves.
  • Nobody fully understands the IVR anymore.Every change feels risky, so nothing changes.
  • You pay for Five9 features you don't use.Licenses renew while key capabilities sit unconfigured.
  • Your Five9 admin left.Changes wait in a queue and small problems turn into outages.
  • The AI pilot stalled.It looked great in a demo but couldn't route, transfer or read your CRM.
  • Reports don't answer leadership's questions.You have plenty of data and still can't explain why service level slipped.

If two or more of these apply, a health check or assessment is the fastest way to a fix plan.

FAQ

Questions we hear often.

Are you affiliated with Five9?

Piedmont CX is an independent consulting firm. We work directly with companies that run Five9, and we also partner with Five9 resellers and integrators who need senior delivery help.

What size contact centers do you work with?

Most clients run 50 to 500 agents. We also help smaller teams with focused projects like an IVR rebuild or an AI agent pilot.

How does pricing work?

Health checks, assessments, workshops and pilots are fixed fee. Larger projects are a fixed bid or hourly, and monthly support plans are available after launch.

Do you work with platforms other than Five9?

Yes. We handle Cisco UCCX, UCCE and PCCE upgrades and IVR changes, Webex Contact Center, Microsoft Teams, Zoom and RingCentral, plus integrations with Salesforce, ServiceNow and Workday.

Will AI replace our agents?

AI is best at routine requests like verifying callers and checking status. It hands everything else to your agents with the details already collected, so customers wait less and agents spend time on the calls that need them.

Do you work remotely or on site?

Most work is remote, serving clients across the US. On-site visits are available in the Carolinas and elsewhere when a project calls for it.
