Aspect Unified IP

Voice portal

The voice portal capabilities of Aspect® Unified IP® allow you to automate some or all of your customer interactions by utilising integrated text-to-speech and speech recognition to gather customer information and match it with data from back office systems to automatically fulfill inquiries or requests. Speech-enabled voice portal and inbound routing functionality can be used in tandem to pre-determine customer information and route a call to the appropriately skilled agent.

The voice portal capabilities enable contact centers to implement interactive voice response (IVR) and speech-enabled functionality easily into your customer-facing business processes, such as self-service applications for customer service, automated early-stage debt-recovery applications for collections, or event availability notification applications for sales with ease. Functionality includes speech recognition, text-to-speech (TTS), speaker verification, and standard speech interfaces that support Media Resource Control Protocol (MRCP).

Plus, managers are given the option of leveraging a premise-based or hosted voice portal. You can take advantage of all of these advanced voice portal capabilities in a hosted environment operating on the proven and reliable Tellme network voice portal platform. The robust functionality will serve to help companies better manage spikes in volume, ensure business continuity and improve their customer service, collections, and sales interactions.
