REDWOOD CITY, CALIF. (PRWEB) November 19, 2014 -- LiveOps, Inc., the global leader in cloud contact center and customer service solutions, announced today that Jeff Thompson has been appointed to Senior Vice President of Product Management. Thompson joined LiveOps through its 2014 acquisition of UserEvents, where he was founder and CEO, and previously led the CxEngage product team. In his new role, Thompson will lead all product teams and drive innovation in product development.
“Jeff has impressed us from the very beginning with his creative thinking and ability to bring those ideas to life in easy-to-use, impactful products that make a very real, positive difference for our clients and their customers,” said Vasili Triant, CEO of LiveOps. “The entire LiveOps team is looking forward to seeing what Jeff and his product teams come up with next.”

This requires offering them a seamless experience across a choice of channels to engage with a company,” said Thompson. “Consistently delivering great customer experiences is good for business, no matter the industry. I am excited to build on the success that LiveOps has achieved as a multichannel cloud contact center leader and bring to market new and exciting breakthroughs in 2015.
