Using the Verint Community Cloud, a National
Nonprofit Launched an Online Early Childhood Development Community
in Days
Verint® Systems Inc. (Nasdaq: VRNT), The Customer Engagement
Company™, teamed up with Ounce of Prevention, a national nonprofit
focused on early childhood education, to launch a new collaborative
online community that connects advocates, partners and leaders in
response to the COVID-19 outbreak. As COVID-19 continues to disrupt
the lives and routines of communities around the country, nonprofit
agencies are working differently to support those in need.
Rapid Response Community Program
Powered by the Verint Community Cloud, the Rapid Response
Community program is designed to help organizations launch secure
employee and customer communities to communicate and coordinate in
the midst of the shifting landscape stemming from the global
pandemic. To aid organizations during this time, Verint is waiving
the Rapid Response Community Software-as-a-Service licensing fees
for 90 days, starting any time from now until June 20, with only a
minimal set-up charge to create and launch a community within 10
business days.
The Ounce of Prevention Fund provides and advocates for early
learning programs and policies that support young children and
families. The organization has leveraged the Verint Community Cloud
platform to launch the Early Childhood Connector (ECConnector) -- a
co-designed, collaborative online community and dynamic space for
advocates, partners, and leaders to connect and share knowledge,
resources and expertise across state lines, disciplines and
professions. While the initial launch was slated for later in 2020,
the COVID-19 crisis made the need for real-time collaboration
across the early childhood landscape much more urgent.
“We accelerated our timeline for launch and were able to
accomplish this thanks to the quick support of the Verint Community
team and Social Edge Consulting,” said Colleen Murphy, vice
president, Early Childhood Connector. “As of April 21, the
community has grown to over 650 engaged members sharing much-needed
credible resources and best practices to help navigate the COVID-19
pandemic. We encourage anyone in the early childhood field to join
our growing community.”
“Today, companies are struggling to support their customers due
to major workforce disruption, moving to remote and work-from-home
conditions,” says Verint’s Jon Allen, vice president and general
manager, Communities and Web Self-Service. “As a result, employees,
contractors, partners and customers are challenged with easily
accessing the information and resources they need in
real-time.”
The Rapid Response Community program features a quick set-up
process that requires minimal IT involvement and is designed to
deliver a secure, cloud-based community within ten business days
based on the organization’s specific needs. The end result is an
online community that is accessible from any web-browser on any
device, which allows stakeholders to easily find and access
critical information, self-serve, share ideas and collaborate.
Backed by Verint’s proven track record of building successful
communities since 2004, the platform improves communication and
support for customers and employees, and aides in business
continuity during these uncertain times.
As part of its response to changing world events, Verint has
developed a COVID-19 Community, for connecting and sharing
information among Verint employees, customers and partners. The
group allows members to find and share information about the virus,
get details from various governmental agencies, hear from trusted
research organizations, and share how others are managing through
these difficult times.
