MS-CRM Ready IVR System

PCI's VRS-3 IVR is a MS-CRM Ready Interactive Voice Response (IVR) System.  "MS-CRM Ready" means that VRS-3 can access the MS-CRM database structures allowing the IVR to communicate with your customers with minimum customer service agent intervention.  Our optional CTI interface presents to your customer agent information collected by the IVR, avoiding asking the caller the same questions they already answered.

 

Our MS-CRM Ready IVR will enhance your MS-CRM system providing improved self-service customer access to information via telephones.  And, IVR systems have an incredible ROI.  Contact are Sales Representative about how to calculate your ROI.

 

Refer to the VRS-3 IVR Product Description page on this web site for detailed information about our IVR system.
