Welcome to The IVR CommunityIVR is a technology that automates interactions with telephone callers. Enterprises are increasingly turning to IVR to reduce the cost of common sales, service, collections, inquiry and support calls to and from their company.
Historically, IVR solutions have used pre-recorded voice prompts and menus to present information and options to callers, and touch-tone telephone keypad entry to gather responses. Modern IVR solutions also enable input and responses to be gathered via spoken words with voice recognition.
Plum Voice provides IVR (interactive voice response) platforms to developers and companies to automate call center and business processes over the phone. Plum offers a rare combination of communication platforms and technology based on the open standard programing language VoiceXML. Products include hosted IVR, IVR systems, IVR software and complete professional services (designing, building, deploying, managing IVR applications and systems) as well as the QuickFuse rapid development tool.
This TMCnet community is for industry professionals wanting to learn more about effective IVR systems.
