IVR Surveys at a touch of a button
Interactive Voice Response, or IVR, is an inbound, automated telephone survey that can be conducted in the comfort and convenience of the respondent's home or office.
Quick, convenient and reliable
Surveys are distributed at a retail location or by mail. Participants are asked to call a toll free number and answer the survey by either using their telephone keypad or by simply speaking their response to open ended questions into the voice receiver. Participants can respond to the survey any time and day of the week. On average participants will respond to the survey within a day of receiving it.
All the participants' responses are logged into a database and the client is notified when a response is received.
Instant access to live results
As IVR data is collected electronically, it can be viewed in real-time or selected intervals via the internet so you can see the results to your survey as they come in. For retail or restaurant, multi-unit operator's results can be segmented and password protected so results can be viewed by the unit, region or time period etc, for which the person logging in is authorized.
Outbound survey and notification options
Although inbound methods are usually employed for IVR, outbound survey options are also available and thus useful for when a list of phone numbers only is available or when the incident rate might be deemed low when a live interviewer is present.
Permission based mobile panel
Our mobile survey platform combined with our permission-based mobile survey panel, provides a unique way to conduct surveys and consumption data via text or voice, allowing for data to be collected wherever the recipient maybe at the time. This mobile survey tool also enables multimedia content to be collected for example images, audio and video files can be uploaded - ideal for ethnographic studies or shopper feedback.
