The acquisition continues the "Group’s mission to aid hundreds of the world’s leading organisations to achieve better customer and agent experience, through its multi-award winning platform, storm", said a statement.

The full share acquisition combines the existing customer engagement expertise in its cloud-based contact centre solutions provided by Group subsidiary Content Guru, with Weston Digital’s omni-channel recording and quality management capabilities.
