Deliver powerful experiences with Cognizant and SAP CX
Unlock new business potential by delivering powerful customer experiences across every channel with a suite of cloud frameworks from SAP.
Take a holistic approach to CX and become a market leader
Many companies have a vision for a great customer experience but very few get it right. Success comes with an investment in the entire ecosystem: employees and partners, technology and processes. We commissioned Forrester Consulting to gain insight into the power of a fully-realized experience ecosystem. Because customer experience only works when it all works.

We help your business team identify effective CX transformation strategies and business models and then jointly plan the journey through a consulting-driven approach.

CX transformation is a journey that continues well after you have implemented the platforms and business processes. Industry disruptions coupled with innovative business models are driving changes at a rapid pace. You will achieve long-term success from your CX investment only if you are able to continue evolving and innovating your customer value proposition in an equally agile manner.
Cognizant’s CX Managed Services will manage your SAP-based CX programs and platforms, ensuring these anticipate and address evolving customer expectations. We do so with our integrated DevOps, Agile support and continuous integration/continuous deployment (CI/CD) models.
Our CX Delivery Framework is a growing repository of best practices related to DevOps, Agile and CI/CD deployment models, as well as a library of reusable code, tools and point solutions. We ensure predictable platform operations with high availability, and help reduce time-to-market while delivering new business capabilities that broaden the reach of your CX investments.
