How to Achieve the Ultimate User Experience

How to Achieve the Ultimate User Experience

User Experience Design (UX) is more than an interface on an application. UX is intended to design and develop clear, efficient, user-friendly interactions between customers and companies through a variety of applications. It is more than just recording prompts for your IVR with someone from the motor pool that has a cool sounding voice or redesigning a call flow so that customers get to the agent they need to talk to even faster.  An effective interaction interface is intuitive.  It is efficient, saving customers time and frustration. And it communicates clearly and is easy to use, making the experience a customer has a positive one.

 

Businesses have benefited from user design services in significant ways. The impact to your business can vary from an increase in customer satisfaction ratings to a reduction in the number of customers opting out of the IVR and going to a more expensive agent solution. Depending on what your business goals are and how your IVR is performing today, you can determine where the biggest impacts and benefits of leveraging a user design process can be.
