“AI isn’t just a buzzword—it’s transforming how contact centers and collaboration tools deliver value.” – Gary Pesta, Collaboration Account Executive, Webex At Navigate 25, Doug Green, Publisher of Technology Reseller News, sat down with Gary Pesta of Cisco’s Webex team to explore how Cisco is helping enterprises and service providers meet customer needs with flexible, AI-powered solutions. Cisco’s focus, Pesta explained, is on enabling seamless collaboration across voice, video, and customer engagement channels. A centerpiece of that strategy is the Webex Contact Center, now enhanced with AI-powered agents. These can be scripted for predictable tasks or run autonomously, offering customers a real glimpse of what “AI in action” looks like. Pesta also highlighted Cisco’s expanding role in CPaaS, where organizations such as utilities and local telcos are using messaging to proactively inform customers of outages, billing, and service updates—meeting customers before frustration turns into a support call. Another innovation drawing attention at the event was the Cisco Desk Pro, a 27-inch AI-enabled collaboration device with built-in noise cancellation and platform flexibility. Whether customers run Microsoft Teams, Zoom, or Webex, the Desk Pro adapts—showing Cisco’s commitment to being platform-agnostic while delivering premium quality. As enterprises shape their “back-to-office” strategies, Cisco sees its AI-enabled devices and collaboration platforms as central to enabling hybrid work and customer engagement. Pesta also underscored Cisco’s ecosystem partnerships, noting that Cisco’s new 9800 series phones are certified for MetaSwitch and Alianza, aligning with the spirit of collaboration at Navigate.
