800response Launches CallFinder, Bringing Web-based Speech Analytics to the SMB Market

BURLINGTON, Vt. — May 14, 2012 — 800response, a provider of telecommunications solutions and marketing technology tools since 1990, today announced the launch of CallFinder^®, a Web-based speech analytics software solution available to the small to medium-sized business (SMB) market.

Until recently, only large enterprises, call centers and government agencies could afford call recording with speech analytics. CallFinder’s mission is to bring this increasingly valuable call monitoring technology to small and medium-sized businesses, keeping call recording and analysis simple, affordable and timely.

CallFinder records incoming calls in real time, and then instantly searches call recordings for the specified keywords and phrases to support a business’ goals. By using speech analytics to monitor call quality, the SMB market can easily discover the content of their customer conversations and better understand how effectively their business is handling customer satisfaction issues, work force training and performance.  They can also monitor for competitive intelligence and evaluate the script compliance of their employees.

“Typically, only large enterprise organizations had the resources needed to invest in speech analytics. But the ability to monitor customer interactions and conversations is just as critical to the tens of thousands of businesses outside of the Fortune 500. The CallFinder solution opens a new and much less expensive method for these companies to gain business and competitor intelligence. CallFinder quickly sorts through thousands of customer interactions that are inherently varied and unstructured, mining that data and reporting on it for busy business executives,” said Laura Noonan, CallFinder vice president of  Marketing.

The company is currently working with businesses in multiple industry categories, and of varying sizes and departments. Speech analytics and call recording can benefit business owners, contact center managers, call center managers, marketing executives, sales organizations and customer service departments.

“With more than 22 years of experience in working with small to medium-sized businesses, we knew there was a huge opportunity to bring this technology to the SMB market in North America, and to make it attainable by making it affordable,” said Noonan.
