About us

Our story, ambitions, work and more

We believe that with the combination of the right people and powerful technology we can make a difference. That’s why, everyday, we’re committed to improving the lives of those that interact through engagement platforms.

Our story so far

Our founders Ben Booth and Richard Coward worked together for over ten years at a contact centre solution reseller. They saw organisations become increasingly frustrated with providers that over-promised and under-delivered on features, support and resilience. Determined to enhance the employee and customer experience, MaxContact was formed.

Since then, the business has become one of the fastest growing contact centre specialists in the UK.

Our timeline

2001-2011

Our founders worked together

For ten years our founders sold, supported and built add-ons for third party on-premise contact center systems.

2011-2015

Frustration led to innovation

Knowing the solutions on the market, the lack of freedom and poor functionality led us to build our own solutions. Four years later, a lot of time, money, blood, sweat and tears, we launch MaxContact.

Hear from our customers

Commercial insurance services provider, Compare My Insurance, were frustrated by their previous system which meant they weren’t dealing with customers efficiently and were missing out on opportunities. MaxContact’s solution has provided stability and reliability, boosting contact rates and efficiencies.

The Evolving Contact Centre Landscape

In a difficult economy, successful contact centres will use insight, technology and agile management to solve problems without undermining performance or stifling growth. Our recent ‘state of the sector’ research found that leaders remain firmly focused on enhancing customer experience, despite cost and workforce challenges. But they also realise that operations have to be more efficient than ever, and that good customer experiences and more streamlined operations are not mutually exclusive.
