For any company looking to have continued business success, making significant improvements to its systems allows its product portfolio to stay fresh and, ultimately, on top of the curve, ensuring customer retention.
To that end, IVR system provider, Plum Voice, has made significant improvements to the Plum outbound IVR call queue system.
"This system is used to provide more control over outbound IVR calls without the need to program complex scripts," said Scott Wilson of Plum Voice, in a recent TMCnet interview.
For these new upgrades, Plum Voice wanted to focus on ways to improve outbound IVR call campaigns for its users.
According to Wilson, one of the new features of the upgraded IVR system is a throttling options to control the flow and speed of outbound calls. In addition, new comprehensive downloadable reports and analytics are also new functionalities for users.
Users looking for advanced retry and call detection options need to look no further now that Plum Voice's IVR system has this new feature. But wait - there's more.
'If an IVR survey has reached its respondent limit, all campaigns running for that survey will be paused and the status indicated when viewing the campaign is 'Max Respondents Reached,'" Wilson said.
