What is IVR?
Interactive Voice Response(IVR)is a technology that allows a computer to interact with humans through the use of voice and DTMF(Dual-Tone Multi-Frequency)tones input via a keypad.When a caller dials a business,the IVR system answers the call and presents a menu of options.The caller can then respond by speaking or pressing the corresponding number on their keypad.Based on the caller's input,the IVR system can route the call to the appropriate department,provide information,or perform other tasks.

IVR Software:This software manages the call flow,menu options,and routing logic.It can be integrated with other systems,such as CRM(Customer Relationship Management)platforms,for more personalized interactions.
