What is an IVR Call?

Interactive Voice Response

IVR Calling is a technique that allows a pre-recorded speech to communicate with humans using voice and DTMF tones entered through a keypad. When an IVR Call is initiated, the voice on the other end will be produced by a computer. You can use your phone’s keyboard to create a certain outcome. This is widely used in ivr banking solutions during and beyond business hours and it can also be really helpful for small businesses

Types of IVR Calling Software

Single-level IVR

This is the most basic type of IVR system. You may only add a single layer of IVR to your call flow. Single-level IVR is ideal for basic use cases when a single input is all that is required to connect with a live agent or send a message.

Multi-level IVR

Multi-level IVR calling system may be thought of as an IVR within an IVR. Creating an IVR menu for customer calls with a 0-9 prompt might be difficult at times. You may utilize many layers of IVR in your call flow to simplify the process in this scenario. For instance, an IVR Banking solution should ideally have some number of DTMF like for credit card, debit card or communicating the total business hours of service to ensure flawless calling.

How have businesses traditionally used IVR?

How IVR Works
01

Customer calls a business phone number.

Let’s say a customer dials a credit card company number listed in your advertisement/website/app.

02

They hear a greeting followed by prompts

Customers are asked to dial specific numbers (DTMF inputs) to receive corresponding results, like 1 for credit card, 2 for debit card, 3 for last transactions etc, & if the business isn't currently open then the business hours prompt will play.

03

The corresponding outcome pans out

For instance, a call is routed to the appropriate live agent of the required department.
