5. NeuralView in CRM

We unveiled a new in-CRM experience for NeuralView, the industry-leading lead and opportunity scoring solution. With this enhancement, sales reps in either Salesforce or Microsoft Dynamics CRM will be able to see how their prospects’ likelihood to be contacted and likelihood to close evolve over time, as well as the top drivers behind both scores.

6. Customer Journey

We showed an early concept from our XANT Labs team of something we’re calling “Customer Journey.” The idea is to use the power of Neuralytics to guide sales reps in real time toward the best next step (when to connect, how to connect, and what kind of offer to extend) for each active prospect to increase the likelihood to close.

7. New Cloud Comms

We announced our new Cloud Communications stack, which will deliver 30x faster inbound call routing, increase our platform call capacity from 300 million to 700 billion calls per year, and already benefits from more than 100 years of talk time from early customers on the new stack. We will end-of-life our legacy (“old”) comms stack in May 2015.
