  1. We are deploying the Ring Central Phone application and there are many steps required by the end user to configure it after signing in. (See examples below)Rather than asking thousands of people to repeat the same steps, we would love to be able to either push the settings via policy or a config file which will serve as the defaults. This way 99% of people will not have to do anything special to set it up unless they really want to.This will eliminate friction with end users during deployment (or even break/fix should they mess up their settings) and improve…

  2. It is extremely confusing to have RingCentral Messages as well as Text Messages. There are already too many methods for communication for most users (email, text, phone, Teams, RC Messages, Skype). We should be allowed to disable this feature. All customers are different, but we should have the ability to administratively disable certain features. Messaging is one of the key ones. Fax should also be able to be disabled from the administrative level.

  3. RingCentral needs to find a way to have SMS working for newly ported in number because this texting feature is really significant to running a business. - per Mr. Andrew of Weir Bauld & Associates

  4. When a user is removed from Ringcentral, all Glip group or one-on-one conversations with that user are lost. With groups, you can convert them to a Team prior to deleting the user to conserve the conversation, but you can't do this with one-on-one conversations. It would be helpful to have the same ability to convert a one-on-one conversation to a team (or some other archive method), to preserve the conversation, as there are often important details, links and files that will be lost otherwise, once the user is removed from RingCentral.

  5. The request is for an additional field in the 'Select Number' form with the Site displayed, as it will help when admins are deleting/adding users to various sites. Currently the only way to do this is to refer to the Inventory, find a number, write it down and then search for it under Add User.

  8. Can you add a filter for voicemails under the reports tab? After you select a specific extension you can filter by several factors under "types of calls" but not voicemail. This would be a nice feature for when an agent is out sick or vacation. Also, can you allow a superadmin to listen to said voicemail you filter? Thanks!

  9. As a company we want the RC app open on everyone's desktop to allow for chat and collaboration. People that like to use one app at a time and close it (often full-screen app users) may accidentally close the app and disconnect themselves from RC. When you close the app, it should give a popup that says "Did you mean to QUIT RingCentral?" and have two buttons: Quite, and Minimize.

  11. I just enabled international calling and SMS for our account, and after testing it and encountering errors/no success, I called the support line to find out that it could take up to 24 hours to actually activate international calling and SMS. Why is it that I have to call to find out this critical piece of information? The current settings in the admin portal give the perception that enabling international calling and texting can happen instantaneously as there are only switches to turn these features on, but no verbiage appears that would share the details regarding the 24 hour delay…

  14. When I click a web link, RingCentral isn't on the list of available phone apps by default in Chrome, Edge, IE. Firefox allows you to pick a program from Windows file explorer, but the other 3 don't, they just provide a static list.RC should ask to be set as the default phone link handler and update whatever registry value necessary, or at the least it should add itself to the potential program list to handle

  15. We have run into issues when one deskphone in a ring group is unplugged for one reason or another and the ring group stops working correctly. The inbound call rings for maybe half a ring and then hangs up on the caller.We have also run into issues when a user within a ring group forwards their deskphone to another deskphone. When this happens all calls to that ring group only rings the deskphone on the receiving end of the call forward.Other phones systems that I have worked with have a complete separation of the ring group and the endpoints. This…

  16. It would be extremely helpful to have the call queue set up so co-workers with only the desktop app (no physical phones) can have calls forwarded to them from a specific extension. That way, if an employee is busy and needs help with phone calls, then a co-worker can pitch in and have calls forwarded to them. For example (names and extensions made up), both Nick and Joe only use the desktop app and do not have physical phones, but Nick at extension 123 needs help with his phone calls. Joe at extension 321 can help, so Joe needs to…

  17. Currently, SMS and fax email notifications for non-assigned/non-direct telephone numbers are emailed to the email address that is set in the RingCentral operator extension.The only way to redirect those email notifications is to change the email addresses used by the operator's extension, or to add a specific extension to unassigned or non-direct (i.e. auto-attendant) telephone numbers. Both of these options are not ideal, as the operator may be using the extension and requires their own email address to remain the same for email notifications for SMSes and faxes sent to their specific extension, and also extensions would need to be…

  18. We have two company lines based on geographic region and are looking to add more territories in the future. When someone calls or texts one number, it creates confusion if we forget to change the caller ID and they get a call or text back from our other company number. I'd love to put a default caller ID or "from" number based on the contact so every time we call or text that contact the caller ID is associated with the number we set and we don't create confusion by responding from a different number.

  20. All manner of business is being conducted via SMS. As a lawyer, I often have to go back and show what the conversation was, what was actually said. Others also have this need. ParticularThe information is already there and available. All that is needed is a "copy" button that will copy the conversation so that it can be pasted into a wordprocessor for saving. (Nicely formated print to PDF would be lively, but baby steps)Similar idea exists with 61 votes as of today " SMS: print option for text messaging" But asks for printing. This new post to ask for…
