Call Routing

You and your company operate on a schedule, now your phone system can too! Introducing Ifbyphone Call Routing, technology that allows you to control the routing of calls triggered by both Smart Click-to-Calls and inbound calls.

Caller ID Routing

Route all of your inbound calls the way you want. Using the Ifbyphone advanced call routing capabilities, you can group and route calls based on any part of the originator's Caller ID. Calls may be routed to another telephone number, Virtual Receptionist, Voicemail box or a set of Voice Forms which interface with your back-end systems. Configure call routes from any Web browser with our easy-to-use customer interface.

Routing Schedules

Routing Schedules are as flexible as you are, in that they are highly customizable and adaptable to your day-to-day operations and after-hours availability. Easily configure your schedule using our highly intuitive, color-coded blocking tool, shown below.

During typical operating hours, for example, use Ifbyphone Find Me technology to send the call to your next available sales representative. Then, automatically route your customers to a Virtual Receptionist or Voicemail box when your staff is out to lunch. Need to leave for the day? Set up your Routing Schedule to forward your incoming calls to your cell or home phone number.

Additionally, your company can plan in advance for holiday closures and system outages. Simply reconfigure your Routing Schedules online, 24/7, using Ifbyphone’s Web-based user interface. You will be able to easily pinpoint the exact days and times that your telephone routing needs to change on a user-friendly, color-coded block schedule. And if your plans change suddenly—no problem! With one click of a button, you can override your entire routing schedule when your business day changes.

Use with Toll-Free Telephone Numbers

Not only do Ifbyphone Toll-Free Telephone Numbers help your customers realize an immediate cost savings in reaching your business, but they also contribute to your company’s professional image.

Route to Custom, Hosted IVR Forms

Call Routing also gives you the flexibility to connect your callers with Ifbyphone-hosted, Web-based IVR applications. Known as SurVo Voice Forms, these IVR applications enable you to gather information from your callers automatically. The information that is spoken over the phone or inputted via keypad buttons is then translated into data that is ported into your Web account. Ask your callers any number of questions, in multiple formats, including Yes/No questions, Multiple Choice, date entry, currency entry, and much more!

For example, conduct a screening for job applicants by asking them to dial into your Ifbyphone Toll-Free Telephone Number. Once the applicant has connected to your business through the toll-free number, they can be routed to the SurVo Voice Form to answer questions about their employment history, salary expectations, residency and start date. Plus, you have full control over the customization of your IVR forms. Simply log in to your Web account and begin creating SurVos from a template or from scratch!
