IVM Answering Attendant Software

Complete telephony solution for Windows

IVM is a telephone answering machine, voice mail, call attendant, and interactive voice response (IVR) program for Windows. It connects to the phone using a standard voice modem, professional telephony board or even directly to a VoIP service.

This software is an effective voicemail, call attendant, info-line, audiotext or autodial solution for small to medium businesses. For example, IVM can redirect in-coming calls during office hours or act as a PC answer machine and take messages for a number of voice mail boxes after hours. All calls (including those answered by you) are logged with date, time and caller ID. The recorded messages can be played at any time, forwarded to an email address, accessed via the internet or, if necessary, saved for future reference.

IVM can also be used very simply as a computer answering machine. Just run the install file on your PC and it will be ready to answer calls. But, when you are ready, you can explore the advanced key response and programming options to create a sophisticated telephone interactive response system. You will find many exciting ways to use IVM to provide information, serve your customers and save time.

A full description of IVM follows but a quick way to try it out is to download and install now. You don't need to purchase to download and it only takes a couple of minutes to complete the process (click here to install). After you have tested IVM and found it to be suitable, you can purchase a location license (click here to purchase).
