Interactive Voice Response Diagrams

IVR (Interactive Voice Response) is an automated system, which allows a subscriber to access the information using a special voice menu, by pressing the keys for tone mode or voice (when using speech recognition technology). Today the IVR is definitely the leading technology position for telephony systems. There are two models of information for IVR systems: static and dynamic IVR. Static IVR is quite simple to implement and is based on a voice menu, in which the user has access to a fixed amount of data in the form of pre-recorded voice messages. Dynamic IVR enables the use of constantly changing data along with pre-recorded voice messages.

The greatest use of IVR is at the sectors with large number of customers who need to be efficiently serviced. IVR can be used to provide 24/7 informational support of customers, clarification of certain confidential information, telephone banking, televoting, credit card services, etc. When integrating the IVR technology with databases the experience can be very personal, for example by providing the information about account status, etc. At working with a system the subscriber usually has a possibility to switch to a live operator at any time.

The IVR diagrams are used successfully to illustrate what is an IVR system and help to depict in details the IVR system’s logical and physical structure. It is easy to visualize how the computers interact with callers through voice recognition and dual-tone multi-frequency signaling (DTMF) keypad inputs. The IVR representations are used to develop, operate and maintain the IVR systems for inbound and outbound call centers and voice mail systems. The Interactive Voice Response Diagrams solution extends ConceptDraw DIAGRAM software with samples, templates and libraries of ready-to-use vector stencils that help create Interactive Voice Response (IVR) diagrams illustrating a work of interactive voice response system, Voice-over-Internet Protocol (VoIP) diagrams, and Action VoIP diagrams with representing voice actions on them.


There are 2 stencil libraries containing 68 vector icons and objects along with 19 samples for Interactive Voice Response Diagrams solution.

Example 7: IVR Messaging System Diagram

This diagram was created in ConceptDraw DIAGRAM using the IVR (Interactive Voice Response) Library from the Interactive Voice Response Diagrams Solution. An experienced user spent 20 minutes creating this sample.

The earlier versions of Interactive Voice Response (IVR) systems were quite simple, so for example it was impossible to realize the complex scenarios, using the information input in a tone mode. The modern technologies allow to customize the IVR system so that the caller has a stable impression of communication directly with an operator. The call processing scenario and the sound files are configured in such way that a caller has no doubt that he communicates with an intellectual machine. The use of the speech recognition in IVR systems opens up even greater possibilities for their use at the cases, when exchange of information with a system in a tone mode is impossible. This IVR sample diagram illustrates the work of IVR messaging system, that offers many functions and settings relating with messages. By pressing the corresponding buttons you can easily record the message, save, re-record, review, or delete it.
