"We are preparing RTC Networks for where our business will be five years from now, not where it is today. With Calix Agent Workforce, employees will be able to find answers more easily, resolve issues with greater confidence during troubleshooting, and onboard faster. As our teams gain more hands-on experience with secure agentic workflows, they are also embracing AI as a practical tool for serving subscribers faster and more effectively. The early benefits we saw with Calix One encouraged our leadership to expand access across the cooperative within weeks of deployment, helping us build the operational readiness we need to support long-term business growth and achieve our goals," said Brooks Goodall, assistant general manager at RTC Networks.
"RTC Networks has a clear vision for the future and a proven approach for long-term growth. They have already shown how a disciplined, data-driven focus on subscriber experience across residential and business markets can help them compete and win. Now, they are applying that same approach to how work gets done using AI-powered workflows. The result is greater efficiency and more consistent experiences. By embedding secure agentic workflows into everyday work with Calix One and Calix Agent Workforce Cloud, RTC Networks is creating a more predictable and scalable operating model that drives subscriber loyalty and higher revenue. We are proud to partner with RTC Networks as they continue building on that success for years to come," said John Durocher, chief operations officer at Calix.
