According to you, voice bots in customer support are becoming strong trend. What are the key drivers of such Growth?

Voice bots solve a major need. Voice bots keep the conversations natural which the customers like and voice bots can handle the mundane repetitive tasks which human agents find boring. So it's a win win situation. Businesses love this as this brings down their contact center costs and they can invest in superior customer experience.

Conversational IVRs built using the voice bot platform will slash down those long winding IVR menus. A caller simply says why they called and gets connected; self-Service solutions will become the norm. The voice bot can deliver this via the phone or digital assistants like Alexa /Google Home. Call queues will be reduced by 10-20%. Bots will be deployed to answer the FAQs which will free up agent time to focus on other tasks.

What is the road ahead in cloud communication and telephony according to your observations?

Voice recognition will revolutionize interactive voice responses (IVR). Speech analytics will be a default module in cloud communication solutions.

Call centre data will get more valuable than ever. With machine learning creating data driven organizations across industries, contact centres are not far behind. Call centre data accumulated over the years, would become a treasure trove to draw insights on customer behaviour. Smart assistants will be ubiquitous.
