Speech-enabled automated attendants are a must-have for any customer service strategy. In the age of Siri and Alexa, customers have come to expect automated, speech-based service. ComScore reports that more than half of all smartphone users are engaging with voice search technology in 2020.
In 2020 we announced Interactive Northwest Inc.’s (INI) release of Interactive Speech Attendant™. Powered by LumenVox’s Automated Speech Recognizer (ASR), INI’s Interactive Speech Attendant (ISA) is a robust solution for organizations looking to replace deprecated name dialers such as Nuance OSA to perform call routing. There are numerous benefits to incorporating a speech attendant into your customer service strategy; including these top three:
Enhances Branding and Corporate Image
The biggest brands in the world use speech attendants. Why? Their customers value speech recognition capability, which produces automated, yet natural communication with the end-user. This elevates the branding of any organization, large or small.
Automates Routine Operator Tasks
A virtual speech attendant takes on tasks that would otherwise be completed by an operator, allowing callers to speak the name of a person, department, service, or location and be automatically transferred. This removes the need for manual time and labor of operators answering inbound calls, searching for phone numbers, and connecting customers to their destinations. The web-based administration interface included with ISA simplifies the configuration of nicknames and aliases, department and location-based transfers, business hours logic, alert messaging, and more.
Gives Organizations Control of Transfers
A robust speech attendant provides callers with a convenient way to reach people within an organization by acting as a single point of access to the corporate directory. ISA’s full-featured administration dashboard puts organizations in control, allowing for highly customized handling of inbound calls.
