Short answer: There’s no fixed product limit. You can create and manage as many IVRs as your business needs in the MyOperator panel.
When to use multiple IVRs
- Different brands or business units
- Region‑specific menus and languages
- Day/time‑based experiences (weekdays vs weekends, holidays)
- Campaign‑specific routing (sales promos, events)
Create a new IVR (step‑by‑step)
- Sign in to your MyOperator panel.
- Open Calls → Design Callflow.
- Click Create New Callflow.
- Enter the greeting, add menu options, and set destinations (departments/queues/users).
- Click Save to Preview and review prompts and paths.
- Click Publish to activate.
Assign IVRs by number or schedule
- Per number: Map different phone numbers to different IVRs in Numbers/Call Routing.
- By day/time: Use Business Hours/Schedule to activate different IVRs for specific windows.
- By caller intent: Chain menus so an initial IVR routes to specialized sub‑IVRs.
Best practices for many IVRs
- Name clearly: Include brand/region and time window (e.g., “IVR – North – Weekdays 9–6”).
- Keep options consistent: Reuse numbering where possible to reduce caller confusion.
- Centralize shared logic: Put common steps in sub‑flows to avoid duplicate maintenance.
- Version safely: Duplicate an IVR to experiment; publish only after testing.
- Document owners: Record who maintains each IVR to speed up changes.
Verify and test
- From Preview, send a test call for each IVR.
- Dial the actual number (if mapped) and try key routes, no‑input, and wrong‑input cases.
- Check Call Logs for the expected path (e.g.,
IVR → Sales → Queue → Agent).
Success criteria: The right greeting plays, each option routes correctly, fallbacks work, and after‑hours behavior matches your plan.
Troubleshooting
- Can’t see a new IVR: Ensure you published the flow and have the correct permissions.
- Wrong IVR answers a number: Review Numbers/Call Routing mapping and schedule priorities; resolve overlaps.
- Audio mismatch: Reassign the correct greeting in the IVR node or Audio Library.
- High maintenance overhead: Consolidate shared logic into sub‑flows; standardize prompts and numbering.
FAQs
Does having many IVRs affect billing?
Typically, IVR count does not affect billing; users/seats and telephony usage do. Refer to your contract for specifics.
Is there a performance cap?
Operationally, keep flows organized and avoid excessive nesting; there is no fixed configured limit for number of IVRs.
Can one number use multiple IVRs at different times?
Yes—schedule different IVRs by day/time using Business Hours/Schedule.
