CSG Xponent: Make Every Communication Count Every customer action tells you something. Xponent turns those signals into meaningful, measurable engagement. CSG Xponent is a customer engagement platform built for industries where every interaction matters—billing, payments, care, security, onboarding, and retention. Xponent connects enterprise data, real-time decisioning, and omnichannel communication delivery so organizations can engage customers across digital, voice, print, and in-person channels. The result: clearer experiences, fewer escalations, and better business outcomes.

Close is a sales CRM with built-in calling, SMS, email, automation, and AI, designed for founders, startups, agencies, and growing sales teams. The platform helps businesses manage leads, communicate with prospects, track opportunities, and automate follow-up from a single system. Close is commonly used by teams that want their CRM to support sales execution, not just store customer data. Users can call, email, text, manage pipelines, assign tasks, create workflows, run outreach sequences, and track sales activity directly inside the platform.
