They say success comes to those who prepare, and at the recent annual AVANT Special Forces Summit in Phoenix, Five9’s preparation hit the jackpot. With over 1,500 Trusted Advisors and leading vendors gathered, the event was a thrilling showcase of cutting-edge IT solutions and services packed with innovation and expertise.  

As a presenting sponsor, Five9 took center stage leading breakout sessions on buzzworthy topics like CX and AI, highlighting our expertise in these pivotal areas and the industries they transform. Another standout was a Main Stage Panel with Five9’s Jake Butterbaugh, SVP of Channel, and AVANT’s Andy Bird, Head of CX. 

But the real highlight? Walking away with not one, but three prestigious awards: 

1. CCaaS Award

Five9 scored big, winning the CCaaS Award for the highest NPS score as voted by Channel Partners. This honor highlights our unwavering commitment to delivering game-changing customer experiences and the strong, winning relationships we’ve built with our channel partners.

2. Solutions Engineer of the Year

Kayla Dozier, Five9 Enterprise Solution Consultant. Kayla’s exceptional skills and dedication have truly set a benchmark in our field, and this recognition underscores her vital role in our success.

3. Channel Manager of the Year, East Region

John Fuhrman, Five9 Senior Channel Sales Manager. John’s strategic vision and relentless drive have made a major impact on our channel operations, propelling Five9 to new heights. 

These awards aren’t just trophies on a shelf – they’re a living testament to the hard work, innovation, and collaborative spirit of the Five9 team and our partners. Winning the CCaaS Award for the highest NPS score is particularly meaningful, as it underscores our dedication to exceeding customer expectations and providing top-notch service in a fiercely competitive arena. 

At Five9, we deeply value our strong channel partnerships and are thrilled to align with like-minded partners who prioritize customer experience and technological advancement.
