Get ready for a fast-moving, AI-driven future

We asked over 1,000 customer experience leaders about the state of CX, their challenges and priorities, and what’s in store for the future.
The spotlight is on CX as it gains more recognition and investment this year. CX leaders report more buy-in from executive leadership, bigger budgets, and a stronger reputation as a critical driver of revenue and profit margins.

In a survey carried out in partnership with Dimensional Research, Nextiva explored the biggest trends of 2025, collecting insights from CX leaders across the US, Canada, and the UK to help you make the best decisions about where to invest and how to scale successfully.
