Pros

Avaya designs, builds and manages communications networks, is a leader in enterprise communications, Internet Protocol (IP) telephony systems and communications software applications and services. Since spinoff from Lucent in 2000, Avaya has wanted to become a software company that has been on the roadmap for many years.

Cons

Avaya has been losing market share in core contact center and messaging lines of business. The move to send core product development and services support offshore has caused some hardships to maintain quality of the products and support services.

Pros

The company used to care about customers, but they removed all the sales people who actually visited and consulted with customers to save travel cost.

Cons

The company's newest CEO, Patrick, only cares about getting back to a Cybersecurity company as fast as possible. Can't sell the company fast enough, but buyers can't get past due diligence periods.
