I am absolutely thrilled to welcome Julien, his exceptional team and his customers to the Sabio Group.”

“Coverage Group has already played an important role in putting Genesys Cloud to work, deploying our public cloud contact centre platform to help organisations across France provide an exceptional experience to their customers,” added Claudine Cherfan, VP Genesys France. “As part of Sabio Group, Coverage Group will be even better placed to support the fast adoption of our Genesys Cloud customer experience platform.
