SAN RAMON, Calif. - March 3, 2020 - Five9, Inc. (NASDAQ: FIVN), the leading provider of the intelligent cloud contact center, today announced that global vehicle remarketing and technology solutions provider, KAR Global, deployed Five9 and ServiceNow to improve customer service and streamline operations.

Headquartered in Indiana, KAR’s physical, online and mobile marketplaces reduce risk, improve transparency and streamline transactions for customers in more than 80 countries.
“KAR’s investment in digital platforms, data-driven solutions and innovation fueled our growth through acquisitions and that growth created a multi-platform customer service experience,” said Tom Fisher, CIO at KAR Global. “To truly redefine our customer experience strategy, we needed to rethink our technology solutions culminating in a multi-month evaluation of our internal operations and technology footprint which clearly laid out our strategy and vision.”
