Conditional Logic for IVR Gather

By utilizing the 'IF Condition' feature and selecting IVR Gather, you can establish distinct logic for different key presses. For instance, 'Press 1 for service details' and 'Press 2 to book an appointment.' Each key press triggers specific branches, guiding callers seamlessly to the next step based on their input

IVR Connect Call

Merge calls effortlessly, connecting your clients to the right resources promptly. You can either select a user from the dropdown who has a phone number or can simply choose to add a custom phone number, which is particularly useful when you would want to connect a call in an IVR on a different sub account. 

Configuration

1. Connect Call To: Define destinations swiftly, ensuring callers reach the right department or individual.

2. Timeout: Empower your callers by minimizing wait times, delivering a responsive experience.

3. Time limit: Tailor conversation durations, balancing thorough support with streamlined interactions.

Note:

In a scenario where,

• Call is ended by the caller

• In this case, the contact will still move to next step, but all IVR actions will be skipped and other actions will be executed

• Call is ended by the agent

• The contact will move to next step and all subsequent actions will execute correctly.

Business Example: Hair Salon

Let's see how one can setup an IVR for a Hair Salon: Imagine a client, Sarah, wanting a spa day at Salon Harmony:

Input Trigger: Sarah dials the salon’s exclusive hotline, eager for a day of relaxation and beauty.

IVR Gather: She listens to options like "Press 1 for Massages, Press 2 for Facials," guiding her toward her desired treatments.

Say/Play Action: Sarah hears about your new aromatherapy massage and a rejuvenating facial, sparking her interest.

IVR Connect Call: Sarah is connected to a salon coordinator, who warmly discusses her preferences, customizing her spa experience.

With our IVR system, Sarah’s salon journey begins with effortless booking and ends with a pampering experience tailored to her desires.

Considerations to bear in mind

1. Please ensure that you have published the workflow before calling the number added in the workflow. 

2. If the call ends the call at any point in the workflow - the contact would be moved to the next steps in the workflow

3. If the caller exits the workflow - the call is disconnected by the workflow
