@BevoudtesveConclusion
>Iterate introduction of your Contact Center solution — validate your
understanding and decrease time to demonstrable value
+ Build in hours, go live in weeks, evolve with the world
+A typical organization likely has multiple departments with varied
Contact Center needs — avoid a one size fits all approach
Cloud Workload Lifecycle Management-aligned reasoning can help you choose
the most appropriate Service for the organization's needs
Leverage the Well Architected Framework to assess your Contact
Center workloads and manage them like a portfolio
» Easy to get started, but don't overlook the details
