IVR in the Age of Siri and Alexa; Evolve or Die

December 25, 2017

We'd like to apologize in advance for the dramatic headline of this post, especially the evolve or die part but there is a communications transformation taking place in companies around the globe and unless you're paying attention, you're likely to fall behind.

A huge shift is taking place - starting with our homes. No doubt, your residence has noticed the shift. Consider, out of the nine top-selling products in the Electronics category on Amazon, six of them or 2/3 are Alexa-enabled!





The way our customers want to interact with technology has changed dramatically.

Yet, IVR systems were initially deployed not for the customer but for the bottom line.
