Verified customer feedback positions NiCE Cognigy as the only vendor to receive the Customers’ Choice distinction in this year’s report

HOBOKEN, N.J.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Feb. 3, 2026-- NiCE (Nasdaq: NICE) today announced that NiCE Cognigy, a global leader in AI-first customer experience solutions, has been recognized as the only solution to receive the Customers’ Choice distinction in the 2025 Gartner^® Peer Insights™ “Voice of the Customer” for Enterprise Conversational AI Platforms, based on verified customer feedback.

The Customers’ Choice distinction is based solely on verified customer reviews.

“To us, being recognized as the only Customers’ Choice vendor is a powerful validation — because it comes directly from the people who rely on our platform every day,” said Philipp Heltewig, Chief AI Officer, NiCE. “Our users’ trust drives everything we build. This distinction reinforces our commitment to delivering AI Agents that elevate customer experiences and support service teams globally.”

Rated 4.8 out of 5 stars from 138 ratings (as of January 14, 2026) on Gartner Peer Insights, Cognigy.AI enables enterprises to deliver instant, hyper-personalized, multilingual service across voice and digital channels. The platform blends Generative AI, Conversational AI, and automation to create intelligent AI Agents that resolve inquiries autonomously and empower human agents with real-time assistance.
