Zoom announced that it has been named a Leader in the IDC MarketScape: Worldwide Agentic Contact Center as a Service Platforms 2026 Vendor Assessment (doc #US54117326, August 2026).

As enterprises move to put AI at the front line of customer service, the contact center has become one of the most active areas of AI adoption. Zoom CX is an AI-native customer experience platform that unifies cloud telephony, meetings, chat, and contact center solutions. Routing, virtual agents, agent assist, workforce management, and analytics run on a single shared data foundation rather than a set of separately acquired tools, and they are built on the same Zoom platform many teams already use. Zoom uses a federated, multi-model AI approach across the platform to support autonomous resolution, real-time agent guidance, and cross-channel analytics.

Platform and AI capabilities

Zoom Contact Center includes no-code IVR and bot flows and integrates with Zoom Virtual Agent, AI Expert Assist, and workforce engagement management.

As noted in the report:

“A well-documented, ongoing program advancing AI capabilities within the platform gives Zoom a credible, forward-looking innovation narrative.”

When to consider the Zoom platform 

For organizations weighing how a contact center fits into their broader communications and technology stack, the IDC MarketScape points to a clear fit:

“Zoom Contact Center is a compelling option for organizations already using Zoom Phone, Zoom Rooms, or Zoom Meetings that want to extend that same familiar interface into customer-facing contact center operations, minimizing training and change-management overhead.”
