2. An IVR is a great way to help customers access your business better.
However, the technology is not without limitations. Common customer
interaction needs and scenarios reveal these limitations and show how
an easy-to-use 'entry point' can end up being a formidable barrier that
customers face in relating to your business.
iAssist is an IVR-in-box application which offers various customer interaction modules on a single platform. These modules
deliver functionalities that everyday customer interaction scenarios demand.
iAssist makes an IVR capable of calling customers back, executing timely customer surveys, automating order status
information, helping customers locate offices with ease and directing customers to different businesses of the same
enterprise.
Riding on the Avaya Voice Portal (AVP), iAssist enables enterprises to do more – interact and relate with their customers by
proactively providing various applications on one single IVR platform.
