Benefits
Reduced operating cost
Cloud computing eliminates the capital expense of building and maintaining server infrastructure, shifts support costs, and allows you to pay incrementally only for services used.
Increased flexibility
Utilizing cloud services allow organizations to more quickly adjust to changing demand while their employees focus on projects that move the business forward.
Faster time to market
Shorten project timelines and create a more predictable time‑to‑market by eliminating server and software provisioning, giving you the competitive advantage you need.
Features
Delivering cloud essentials for over a decade
With our long‑term experience providing hosted IVR services for many of the world’s top brands, Nuance provides the operational agility required to meet the growing demands for exceptional customer experience while delivering security and reliability for peace of mind.
Reliability & security
While the need for consistent service availability remains a priority, the need to protect sensitive data has become mission critical. Is it possible to get both from a single vendor? It is.
Why Nuance
Nuance Cloud IVR is fully secure—proactively addressing privacy, confidentiality, authentication, integrity, non‑repudiation, access control, and communication security. We operate in geographically redundant SAS 70 certified data centers as well as cloud providers like Microsoft and Google, which adhere to, are in compliance with, and/or are certified according to stringent security standards, including SOX, ISO 27k, Level 1 PCI-DSS, and HIPAA.
Safe, secure and reliable
Our stringent level of security and guaranteed performance provides peace of mind and confidence to focus on strategies that will accelerate your growth and success. We regularly submit to client audits, most recently for the US government and six of the top ten US financial services companies. But security alone won’t move your business forward. Nuance also offers Service Level Agreements for availability, for the delivery of a specified number of messages, and within a predefined timeframe.
Operational simplicity
In many cases, the cost and effort required to keep pace with innovation is beyond your IT team’s capacity or not core to your business. Upgrades offering new functionality, improved speed, or enhanced security may not be practical, delaying the benefits your organization needs to compete.
Why Nuance
With Nuance Cloud IVR, you benefit from technology advances on an ongoing basis. As soon as a new or enhanced feature appears in the platform, you can begin using it. With our IVR hosted platform, customers often benefit 12+ months in advance and can realize 20‑30% performance improvement.
Continuous innovation, as you need it
Put the latest tools for improving customer experience to work for you. Nuance Cloud IVR reduces the pressure on IT and gives your organization the productivity tools and customer self-service IVR solutions needed to satisfy customers again and again.
Scale & extensibility
Offering outstanding customer experiences in a dynamic business environment requires both the ability to seamlessly integrate legacy IT infrastructure and rapidly scale service based on demand. Yet existing systems are often too fragile or outdated to incorporate cloud and web‑based services.
Why Nuance
Nuance Cloud IVR offers open, flexible APIs that minimize integration complexity—simplifying the process of connecting to multiple back office and call center systems on‑premise, including ACD, CTI, and CRM solutions. Our hosted self‑service platform boasts proven integrations with every major telephony provider and provides guaranteed levels of performance.
Agility that drives your business forward
Nuance Cloud IVR also provides the ability to adapt quickly to demanding workloads, whether expanding your service footprint or responding to an unplanned event. Automatically scale up without lengthy change orders, set‑up times, or delays, then scale down if traffic subsides. You pay only for what you use—providing the nimbleness your service operation needs to meet growing customer demands and increased competition.
Reporting & analytics
In a resource-constrained business environment—when you’re being asked to do more with less—you need the ability to easily evaluate performance, quickly make decisions and effectively communicate across your organization.
Why Nuance
Nuance OnDemand combines access to the data you need with tools to view, analyze, and share meaningful results. Dashboards monitor interaction metrics, clearly surfacing any volume or performance variance. Call and campaign effectiveness is revealed through standard or custom‑designed reports that include additional data for deeper analysis. Terminology and formats are configured to create meaningful, easy‑to‑share evaluations.
Enhanced performance, improved productivity
In‑depth analysis reveals the insights required to optimize customer self‑service IVR experience and increase ROI. Meanwhile, automated monitoring and intuitive dashboards improve your operational efficiency.
