Deployed in over 300,000 hotel rooms across 24 countries, supporting leading hotels and groups worldwide Evolution Voice provides a future proof, flexible, cost effective telephony service with minimal up-front expense. Used in conjunction with Jazzware, our Evolution Voice telephony solution offers call accounting, IVR, guest voicemail and wake up services and integrates seamlessly into our EVA Virtual Agent service.
What is EVA?
Our Evolution Virtual Agent service (EVA) combines intelligent IVR with AI technology and machine learning to help hotels around the world enhance staff productivity and improve the guest experience. Available 24x7x365 EVA can reduce calls to guest services by over 75%, allowing staff to concentrate on guests requiring that extra personal touch.
With its almost human like interaction, EVA virtual agents can take and make calls to guests and staff in order to provide answers to regularly asked questions, take requests for wake-up calls, room items and maintenance requests. EVA can also integrate with 3rd party front and back-of-house hotel systems, see API guide below. EVA is available in multiple languages, here are just a few examples:

Why should you deploy EVA?
In simple terms, EVA can reduce calls to guest services by more than 75% – freeing up front-of-house and back office staff to carry out other duties or engage with guests face-to-face. It will help your teams manage guests interactions before, during and after their stay.
At some of the top performing sites, EVA has been proven to successfully answer 90% of all calls and of those calls it reduced calls to operators by 79%. For the first half of January 2023, for all of the Gaylord properties combined, EVA has successfully answered an average of 84.6% of all calls and of those calls, EVA reduced calls to operators by a staggering 78%.
During this period, EVA has handled well over 84,000 Internal and External guest calls for the Gaylord properties.
