Under the deal, the company said that it will pay 595 pence per share to IMImobile in place of each share. The deal includes debt. The acquisition process has begun with the two companies signing the requisite papers. It is expected that the deal will be closed officially in the first quarter of 2021.

IMImobile provides software and services to let companies stay connected with their customers. It offers enhanced interactive channels. This includes social, messaging, and voice channels. IMImobile CEO Jay Patel said that the management is excited to join Cisco to enable great customer experiences. The company will join the contact center business unit of Cisco. Cisco is one leading technology companies in the world. It has over 274 offices in 96 different locations.
