What is IVR Software?. An Interactive Voice Response (IVR) processes inbound phone calls, plays recorded messages including information extracted from databases and the internet, and potentially routes calls to either inhouse service agents or transfers the caller to an outside extension.

An Extract from IVR Improvement Strategies,
A new research report published by the Ascent Group, Inc.
All in all, IVR technology offers a tremendous opportunity to offer self-service and
reduce or avoid costs. Make sure you do it right. If you don’t, the impact could be much
worse than if you hadn’t attempted it in the first place.
Selected Participant Successes:
- Off-hours satisfaction has increased for callers leaving call back messages
- Self-serve success rate increased from 42% to 47% in 2003 due to several small
changes made to applications.
- In moving from touchtone to speech: Call completions went from 38% to 59%,
callers entering their account information (enabling greater CTI savings for
transferred calls) went from 79% to 91%, call duration went from 3 minutes to 1.5
minutes.
- Increased IVR call completion rate when migrated from touch tone to
speech—from 85% to 90%. Also added functionality and handling time remained
flat. More up-time.
- Our customer satisfaction has steadily increased since its inception. Our call
volume to the IVR has increased at a more rapid rate than our call volume
answered by agents.
- Reduced call volume and 24x7 availability to customers.
- Obviously, IVRs are crucial in our business. We would have to more than double
our current capacity if IVRs were not available. Our customers also enjoy the
convenience of IVRs. In fact, during the rare times in which we must route
around IVRs (for various reasons) we actually have customers complain that they
must speak with an agent.
