Technavio ICT analysts highlight the following three market drivers that are contributing to the growth of the global IVR system market:
Increase in the number of calls One of the major drivers for the global IVR system market is the increase in the number of calls by customers. There is a tremendous increase in the number of calls due to which agents are not able to receive the calls. Thus, organizations manage the increased number of calls and provide increased customer interaction with the help of IVR solutions. The use of dual-tone and speech technology reduces the hold time and drop off time for each call. This has increased the number of outbound calls, which results in automation of the routine tasks and helps in improving the efficiency of the agent. "In the retail inustry, speech technology is mostly used for receiving the calls, which when carried by IVR systems reduces the time, especially when there is a seasonal demand for some products," says Amrita Choudhury, a lead analyst at Technavio for enterprise application research. Adherence to standards Organizations have increasingly started adopting open standards. They have realized the importance of developing solutions and technologies that are interoperable with the products. Voice extensible markup language (VXML) offers a shift in the application development because speech recognition on VXML standard helps the programmer to develop reusable grammar leveraged by different applications. The ability to reuse the codes makes the standard more preferred and reduces the development time of the project. The applications built on this standard are portable and offer customers with the flexibility to integrate with other vendor solutions. IVR systems that are based on this standard offer the benefits of application portability and investment protection. Most of the IVR system providers offer support for emerging and accepted standards including VXML, extensible multimodal annotation markup language, Speech Recognition Grammar Specification, Semantic Interpretation for Speech Recognition, and Natural Language Semantics Markup Language. Increased need to improve CRM Customer relationship is crucial for effective revenue generation in any enterprise. Enterprises are striving to develop a wide customer base because of the increase in competition and to obtain a large market share. They have started implementing enterprise solutions such as enterprise resource planning (ERP) and CRM. However, it is difficult to maintain the same level of personal contact with all the customers. "The lack of a centralized system, which provides relevant and consistent data and engages in continuous communication with customers results in loss of customers and exposes the business to risks," says Amrita. IVR systems enable companies to engage with their customers. For instance, enterprises deploy IVR systems to provide product or brand information to customers and increase the brand awareness. IVR systems help in promotions, thereby encouraging customers for signing up to the company's account. Thus, the effective deployment of IVR systems enables personalized customer interaction.
