IVR Technology: Translating Voice into Increased Productivity - By: Morris Jane

Modern call centers services are adapting new technology in order to make their customers always satisfied with the provided results and success. Such a new technology is Interactive Voice Response that is integrated with computer and detects voice on a normal call. This technology helps a call center to refer database immediately and acquire information from it. The information is then pushed further to a call center customer service representative. This enhances the productivity of call center services by reducing the time of call handling.

The IVR system generates audio or play voice message that has been pre-recorded. The IVR simplifies the call functions by splintering the call into simple preferences or choices. No human interaction or any LIVE contact is needed as a matter of fact until and unless, the caller wants to do so. This technology has done wonders for the organization which were handling the stress and pressure of large volume of calls. This technique is flexible and could be controlled automatically or manually. It can be scheduled as per the process. Call center outsourcing has become more credible and cost effective as the management has not to employ large number of Customer Support Executive.

Large enterprises often have the problem of heavy inflow of calls where they have to deal with routine inquires. For instance in case of telecom companies they have large volumes of calls regarding the remaining balance, launch of new schemes or request to stop or activate a new scheme. As in such organizations, the deployment of IVR can be a tool that can provide prompt information while cutting down the number of in-house employees working for that only. The spare manpower and time can be utilized in some other work operations. This mode of communication streamlines the process and offer seamless transfer of the calls, hence providing better call center services and support to the customer.

IVR services can be used by several organizations for balance retrieval, knowledge or information on improved interest rates, updates on weather or for flights schedules, confirmation of the placement of order or status of the dispatch of the order and many more. This highly automated system provides prompt and accurate information that result in high response, increased leads and sales for your organization.
