  1. The current RingCentral IVR configuration enforces a hard-coded limit of three (3) prompt repetitions when a caller enters no action (i.e., no key press is detected) before the system executes a final action (e.g., disconnecting the call or routing to the next destination).

    Please introduce a new, configurable setting in the IVR/Auto-Receptionist setup that allows administrators to change the number of times the prompt repeats before executing the final action.
    Or add an option to skip the IVR or route the caller to an extension if they hit pound (#) or star key (*).

  2. Ability to dial out while there is an incoming call, after the latest update the ability to dial out while there is an incoming call is no longer available. You need to ignore the call first to be able to dial out which is inconvenient for customers that has a call queue and receiving a lot of calls.

  3. It would be helpful if there were an option to disable the email notifications to users if someone created a workflow builder for them.

    Lastly, allow administrators to:

    Prevent users from administering Workflow Builder.

    Restrict users from creating new workflows.

    Block users from executing or triggering existing workflows.

    Controls should be role-based or permission-based for flexibility.

    Use Cases

    Organizations with strict governance or compliance requirements

    Limiting automation access to IT or operations teams

    Preventing unintended workflow execution by non-authorized users

    Benefits

    Improved security and compliance

    Better role-based access management

    Reduced risk of misconfiguration or unintended automation

    Cleaner user experience for…

  4. When configuring an IVR Menu, it would be very helpful to have the option to label an ‘External Transfer’ number with a description.

    Currently, when a key press action is set to ‘External Transfer’ and includes only the phone number, other admins who review the call routing later won’t know who or what that number routes to (see attached screenshot).

    Our company works with many different third-party partners, so being able to label each external number with the associated company or purpose would make call routing management much clearer and more efficient.

  5. When purchasing phones, etc. via the Admin portal, the suggestion is that Ring Central adds a field to allow a customer to input a Purchase Order that would then be tied to that purchase on the resulting invoice.

  6. I get a lot of junk texts and faxes. To confirm that they are junk, I have to open each one and look at it, which is a slow process. As a consequence, I have left all these junk messages in my queue and worry that some non-junk is lost in that mess. It would be helpful if there were a way to get a better faster, preview of faxes and texts and quick access to a delete button for them rather than having to go down a menu level

  8. This request seeks to improve call log accuracy for calls routed through an IVR to a Call Queue, specifically to ensure "Missed" states are captured correctly without requiring workarounds. This enhancement will provide full visibility into the caller journey and eliminate the current technical trade-off between SMS functionality and reporting accuracy.

  9. Wants to filter/separate the inbound sms from outbound sms. On the RingCentral app, under the Text tab, there is a search option for messages; however, there is currently no feature to filter results by inbound or outbound messages only.

  10. Enable RingCentral admins to directly manage, verify, and push Caller ID Name (CNAM) updates to major carrier databases (AT&T, Verizon, T-Mobile, etc.) from within the Admin Portal, ensuring consistent and accurate caller name display for outbound calls.

  12. The Windows RingCentral client is described as "needlessly heavy." The customer is requesting a more "polished" version with reduced CPU usage and a smaller install size for mass deployment (hundreds of machines).

  13. On our old messaging platform you could set DND for 15 mins, 30 mins, 1 hour, 1 day and then it would AUTOMATICALLY go back to normal. Same thing with status messages- you could set them to display for an amount of time and then go back to available/or whatever default status needs to be. Could you please add this functionality?

  16. Make the Status (Presence) work. It never has.

    If someone isn't running the Windows app, they show offline, even if they have a desk phone and/or the smartphone app.

    If someone has the Windows app running, they will show available, even if it is outside their work hours and you have no hope of reaching them.

    If someone shuts down their computer to go home at the end of the day, they will show offline, rather than unavailable because the status doesn't have any regard for work hours.

    If someone is inside their work hours and have a desk phone…

  17. We have call groups set up to a user extension and I only want to receive call notes for the calls that came in to this extension regardless of whoever the user within the group answers the call.

    But I don't to set up call notes notification to all of the user extensions that are part of the call group because I don't want to receive call notes when their direct numbers or extensions are dialed.

  18. Currently, E911 SMS notifications are only going through when there is a single recipient registered in the admin portal. However, when multiple recipients are added, the SMS notifications fail to send.

    Having multiple recipients for E911 SMS notifications is important because it ensures that critical emergency alerts are immediately received by more than one responsible party. This redundancy helps guarantee that someone is always notified, even if one recipient is unavailable, offline, or unable to respond. In emergency situations, timely awareness is crucial, and relying on a single contact increases the risk of delayed response.

  19. Currently, there is no reliable way to disable fax traffic for a phone number. If a number is assigned to a user extension and set to "Voice Only," any inbound fax attempts are treated as voice calls and will ring all active devices and apps associated with that extension.

    Ideally, there should be an option to fully disable fax functionality on a number. This would result in a failed transmission status for the sender, clearly indicating that the number is not enabled for fax. This would help ensure that faxes are redirected to the appropriate, legitimate fax number associated with…
