Predictive dialing is the dialing of multiple numbers at once. The main use for this would be in telemarketing. An advantage to doing this is that when dialing multiple lines at one time the percentages of getting an answer increase dramatically. This saves much time and effort compared to dialing one number at a time.
A predictive phone dial-er is designed to predict when the next agent or receiver will be free, thus, anticipating when the next hello will be detected. It is an intelligent call processing system which uses complex mathematics algorithms to predict when to dial next in the instant the receiver of the call is available and more likely to answer.
A predictive dialing system works when one dials a list of telephone numbers and connects answered dials to people making calls (called agents). This is the system used in telemarketing.
Companies that use a predictive dialing device are typically telemarketing companies. Sometimes schools will use one to call parents notifying when a child was absent. A doctor's office will use it to remind patients of appointments.
An autodialer is a better method than a predictive dialer. This is due to the repetiive task of dialing.
There are many places that one can find information on predictive dialing software. One place would be to speak directly with someone who works in an industry that uses these, mainly tele-marketers. Marking textbooks as well as computer software textbooks would also contain information on these programs.
The reason why collection agencies use predictive dialers is because, more calls are made and predictive dialers do it all for you automatically. They also raise the productivity of agents.
Yes, many companies use predictive dialers for telemarketing. Their goals is to target specific demographics.
A collection predictive dialer is defined as a system for automating telephone calls for collection or debt recovery. The dialer handles the dialing and connection of a phone call directly to an agent in control of collecting debts. These systems bypass manually being forced to dial and connect to clients. Predictive dialers are use dial batches of phone numbers to determine numbers with someone answers. These numbers are then assigned to collection agents who make contact in an attempt to collect a debt.
"VOIP calls can be made through a regular phone, although an adapter is needed. The adapter should be provided when service is first begun. If the question is referring to a VOIP predictive dialer, for businesses, this should also be available through the VOIP service provider."
Pretty much any phone (even feature phones) can be configured to use pulse dialing. Some phone companies (e.g. VoIP providers) do not recognize pulse dialing, though.
I believe you mean predictive dialer software. This type of software automatically dials phone numbers for you. Many telemarketers use this type of software.
positive predictive value and negative predictive value wil not be affected.
Predictive maintenance software can be used by purchasing a program through a company such as emaint. I would suggest trying a free trial to see if it is something that you are interested in.
