Mark Wilson, head of services, Fujitsu Africa, says: PegaSys is a well-established legacy system, however we need to upgrade and refresh the solution to align it more with mobile and Internet-based technologies. CTI is an ideal partner for this as there is a good cultural fit between both companies and they have some exceptionally clever mobile technologies which will complement PegaSys and increase the value of PegaSys to existing customers and present the industry with a competitive alternative solution.
