The Voice User Interface Company - Special Post SpeechTEK Year-End Offer

Attention Call Center Managers, IVR Owners and Designers:

If you have one of more IVRs, you have probably struggled to make your IVRs more efficient.

You can improve your IVR’s efficiency by:

  • Increasing user containment
  • Decreasing user “pound outs”
  • Decreasing time-to-task completion
  • Minimizing user confusion
  • Minimizing user frustration

The Voice User Interface Company (VUICO) has the expertise and empirically proven methods that can make your IVR more efficient. Whether your IVR uses DTMF, speech recognition or both, VUICO can increase its throughput and improve its usability.

VUICO Leads the Industry

For providing top quality, fast turnaround IVR usability analysis, VUICO offers the greatest value for your "customer service and satisfaction" dollars. In fact, VUICO prices for its Expert IVR Reviews are extremely competitive with industry alternatives.

What is a VUICO Expert IVR Review?

A VUICO Expert IVR Review entails the exhaustive, prompt-by-prompt evaluation of an IVR and an overall application review that rates the system in terms of its:

  1. Feature functionality and value proposition
  2. Human factors and ease of use; and
  3. Overall production quality.

Each review will take approximately two weeks to perform. The reviews result in an MSWord report that contains a detailed analysis of every prompt, timing variable, error recovery routine, etc. in the application. All inconsistencies with basic human factors principles or industry accepted best practices will be noted and specific tactical remedies will be suggested.

Each report also includes a strategic analysis of the application that addresses less specific, overall issues such as overall design motif, the use of speech or how to best integrate DTMF and speech. In some cases, these reports will include more than 100 specific recommendations. The reports average around 14-26 pages.

How much does it cost?

Similar speech industry service offerings can cost over $20,000. However, our customers can obtain a VUICO Expert IVR Review for a fraction of that cost.
