History

The company was founded as Genticity Inc. in 2002 by Harold Hutchinson and Jamie Hill, who in 1995 had started the "first Canadian coast to coast ISP".[2] In 2005, the company was voted "Best After Sales Support in the Americas" in the Members' Choice Awards of ContactCenterWorld.com.[3] In 2007, it announced its intention to integrate speech-enabled interactive voice response (IVR) into its software.[4] In February 2008, at which point it was based in Atlanta, Georgia, United States, the company changed its name to Customer1, after its leading product.[5] The rename was in part motivated by the company's strong presence in the Asian-Pacific, as it hoped to achieve "Asian-dialect recognition".[5]
