Noble Systems Corporation (NSC) is a privately held company based in Atlanta, Georgia, which develops contact center technology, including outbound dialing solutions for collections and customer relationship management (CRM).
Corporation history and acquisitions
In 1985 founder and CEO James K. Noble, Jr. created the Noble solution by utilizing early predictive dialing software ("a predictive dialer is a telephone control system that automatically calls a list of telephone numbers in sequence, screening out no-answers, busy signals, answering machines and disconnected numbers while predicting at what point a human caller will be able to handle the next call."). Four years later, in 1989, the CEO officially formed Noble Systems Corporation, headquartered in Atlanta, Georgia. Noble was the first vendor to offer an open, scalable, fully distributed platform.
Noble has about 350 employees globally, including regional U.S. offices and international offices in Australia, Brazil, Germany, India and Mexico. NSC is used by approximately 4,000 client sites worldwide.
In November 2007, Noble Systems acquired Amcat, Amcat UK Ltd and Amcat Germany GmbH. In 2009, Noble Systems acquired assets of the TouchStar Software Corporation, including the TouchStar brand and all intellectual properties, as well as TDI (formerly Teledirect) including the Liberation brand and product line and associated intellectual properties. This included the Digisoft line of products, including eTelescript.
In January 2010, The Atlanta Business Chronicle revealed: “In the past five years, Noble has posted a compounded average growth rate of 23 percent; the company would not disclose specific revenue figures.â€
In October 2011, Noble Systems acquired Open Wave, a Workforce Management (WFM) software and solutions specialist.
