The combination of Smart Communications and Joisto represents an exciting step forward for both companies and our customers.”
The acquisition comes alongside a period of sustained, rapid growth for Smart Communications, as the company has consolidated its leadership position in the cloud CCM (Customer Communications Management) and IXM (Interaction Experience Management) sectors and earned recognition for its strength among today’s leading healthcare, financial services, insurance, and government organizations.
