Amazon Connect vs. Avaya Contact Center

Amazon Connect is an easy to use omnichannel cloud contact center that helps companies provide superior customer service at a lower cost. Over 10 years ago, Amazon’s retail business needed a contact center that would give our customers personal, dynamic, and natural experiences. We couldn’t find one that met our needs, so we built it. We've now made this available for all businesses, and today thousands of companies ranging from 10 to tens of thousands of agents use Amazon Connect to serve millions of customers daily.

Avaya Contact Center is delivered through Avaya Infinity, a cloud-native platform designed to orchestrate seamless customer experiences across all channels. Built on a modern microservices architecture with open AI orchestration, Avaya Infinity enables organizations to intelligently manage voice, digital, email, and messaging interactions. It provides dynamic routing, AI-powered automation, and real-time orchestration—with the unique flexibility to deploy fully in the cloud, on-premises, or in a hybrid environment.
