As someone who works in telecom building phone tree menus, I agree. I have never said this is needed. I’m sure there are some companies with a million departments where narrowing it down with this would be quicker, but I’ve never dealt with one where 5 options and maybe a few subtrees didn’t get the job done. Takes under a minute to navigate. I believe the customer enjoys this more as well.
