According to data released by the company, Glance saw significant surges in user licenses, session minutes consumed, and number of hosted sessions. The company also noted that its second quarter in 2020 dwarfed first quarter results, as banks and other institutions deployed visual engagement tools to counteract the impact of COVID.

The company also reported 26 percent Year over Year growth in sessions across all sectors in this timeframe.

“Glance has historically been well entrenched in the financial services industry, serving numerous banks, lenders, and investment management firms that recognize the importance of adding human service and support capabilities to their digital customer touchpoints,” explained Tom Martin, chief executive officer at Glance. “When the pandemic shutdown hit in late March, these organizations experienced a massive demand for digital engagement solutions, including work-from-home applications of our technology, and solutions to satisfy customer service requirements. We expect the demand for our solutions will continue to escalate through the remainder of 2020 and beyond as institutions continue to manage the implications from the pandemic.”
