Nearly 84 percent of all calls go unanswered because people either don’t recognize or trust the caller’s identity
People are trained not to answer calls from unknown numbers so essential businesses and service providers are struggling to reach customers with critical communications. Consumers are nervous, and business call volumes are spiking because of it. To deal with increasing call volume, contact centers are now relying heavily on call-back solutions, yet calls from unknown numbers still go unanswered.
First Orion's "Inform" programmable business caller ID solution enables businesses to correctly identify themselves to their customers when calling before they answer. This ensures critical calls are answered the first time eliminating the phone tag cycle or important calls being missed entirely. Many organizations already using First Orion Call Enhancement solutions have seen answer rates double.

Additionally, First Orion's Call Enhancement Suite, Inform and Engage, tells mobile subscribers who is calling and why, empowering them with the ability to take action, while also providing businesses the ability to verify their identity when calling their customers. Nearly 84% of calls go unanswered because consumers don't recognize the number or don't trust the identity.
