Jacada Receives 2014 Speech Technology Excellence Award


ATLANTA --(Business Wire)--

Jacada (News - Alert) announced today that TMC, a global, integrated media company, has granted Jacada Visual IVR with a 2014 Speech Technology Excellence Award.

This tenth-annual Speech Technology Excellence Award, presented by CUSTOMER Magazine, honors companies who have demonstrated innovation in speech and related technology solutions that improve the bottom line for their customers.

Jacada Visual IVR is a visual representation of the existing IVR system, easily accessible from the company's website or from any mobile device. This convenient and visual menu driven interface to the IVR enables users to quickly select the options they need, enter complex data, or choose a warm and seamless transition to live agent support. Visual IVR allows organizations to collect important call information before connecting the caller to the agent; cutting down call handle time. Utilizing this information, Visual IVR can route the call to the right agent, and at the same time reduce the number of 'zero-outs' of customers getting frustrated with the IVR tree. A typical Visual IVR implementation has a ROI of less than a month.

"Jacada has demonstrated to the editors of CUSTOMER magazine that its product is both innovative and a leader in the speech and related technology industry. Visual IVR has proven its superior capabilities and has ultimately improved the bottom line for its customers," said Rich Tehrani, CEO, TMC (News - Alert).

Earlier this year, Jacada's Visual IVR was also recognized by the following leading industry bodies:



Jacada recently conducted a webinar discussing Visual IVR and its affect on speech technology. The replay of the event is available online. For more information, please visit www.Visual-IVR.com
