- | When it comes to getting both quantitative and qualitative information to guide iterative improvement of an IVR, there is no substitute for end-to-end call recording -- providing a recording of everything the caller hears and does when dealing with the IVR and, if transferred, with the call center (hold time, hold experience, agent-caller interaction). The resulting data is powerfully valid because it is based on real calls made by real users trying to do real tasks.

"Data doesn’t get any better than that. Even though the sample size of the data (the number of calls) in call logs will be substantially greater than the number of transcribed end-to-end calls, call logs cannot provide the richness of knowing exactly where in a prompt or message a caller barged in, or exactly where a poorly timed message caused the caller to stutter, resulting in a misrecognition." | "Data doesn’t get any better than that.
