  1. We would like to request a feature that allows administrators to restrict users from making outbound calls or sending text messages outside of TCPA-compliant hours (typically 8:00 AM to 9:00 PM local time of the recipient).

    This feature would help ensure compliance with the Telephone Consumer Protection Act (TCPA) by preventing accidental outreach to contacts during restricted hours, reducing legal risk and improving customer trust.

    Implementing this feature would significantly reduce the risk of TCPA violations and support responsible communication practices across the organization.

  2. The customer would like to customize their call recordings for documentation/organization purposes. For example, they would like a text field where they can label the call and recording according to their claim, so they can easily document and tag them.

    This is very helpful for tracking and simplifying tasks and provides efficiency.

  3. Description of the Idea:
    When an incoming call targets a Site Number, RingCentral currently displays the main company or main user name as the caller destination. This behavior is misleading and causes confusion for users, especially in multi-site organizations.

    Problem Statement:

    • The display does not reflect the actual target site, even though the call was placed to a specific site number (X Number).
    • Users are shown the main tenant name rather than the name of the site being contacted.
    • This prevents staff from identifying which site the caller is trying to reach, impacting call handling, routing, and response efficiency.

  4. Description of the Idea:
    When managing multiple simultaneous calls, users currently face difficulties identifying calls after switching if the contact is not listed in the company directory. The call order changes unexpectedly when calls are placed on hold or resumed, causing confusion and inefficient call handling.

    Problem Statement:

    • The call placed on hold takes the position of the resumed call, disrupting the original order of calls by arrival time.
    • This leads to loss of the initial call sequence, making it harder for users to quickly identify and prioritize calls.
    • Users have to spend extra time figuring out which call corresponds…

  5. Description of the Idea:
    During Hold/Unhold transitions, RingCentral internally switches the RTP source without SIP renegotiation and while keeping the same SSRC. Although the stream appears continuous (same SSRC, coherent sequence numbers), this design leads to misinterpretation by VoIP monitoring tools such as OCOM or SIP Capture HOMER, which are widely used in enterprise environments.

    Suggested Improvement:
    Introduce a mechanism to explicitly signal the change of RTP source, such as:

    • Changing the SSRC, as recommended in [RFC 3550 §8.1],
    • Resetting RTP timestamps or sequence numbers,
    • Using the RTP marker bit to indicate a discontinuity.

    This would help monitoring systems correctly…

  6. Customer is not happy regarding our process in manually enabling the SMS feature of a newly added Canadian number for SMS. It would be best if the SMS feature would be enabled by default for Canadian numbers especially if it would be only use to send SMS inside Canada.

  8. Currently, customers can only opt out of receiving SMS messages by replying "STOP" to text messages from individual phone numbers. This process can be cumbersome for accounts with multiple numbers, as customers must opt out separately for each one.

    We request a feature that allows customers to opt out of SMS messaging across all numbers within their account simultaneously. This centralized opt-out option would improve user experience by providing a simpler and more efficient way to manage SMS preferences and ensure compliance with opt-out regulations.

  9. Okta-RingCentral integration - the customer would like to have the ability to auto-sync the email address update for both contact and notification email for each user, not just for the contact email. Manually updating the notification email per user is exhausting.

  10. The customer would like the option to set up call forwarding so that callers can leave voicemail messages after the tone and then hear a separate recorded message once their message has been recorded.

  11. Can the RNA functionality be disabled to prevent the agent from becoming unavailable? Alternatively, can a timer be set to automatically switch the status back to available?

  15. Current Functionality:
    SMS (Short Message Service) messaging is a core communication feature currently available for RingCentral North America (US and Canada) customers. This allows users to send and receive text messages using their RingCentral phone numbers, integrating SMS capabilities directly into their unified communications platform.

    Requested Functionality:
    We request the enablement of comprehensive SMS functionality for all RingCentral UK and European Union (EU) brands. This feature should allow RingCentral UK and EU customers to:
    1. Send and Receive SMS: Initiate and receive text messages from their RingCentral provisioned phone numbers (local, national, mobile, where technically feasible and legally compliant).
    2.…

  16. Currently, if you have a phone number in "inventory" and it is called, the number rings as if it is disconnected.

    Proposed feature: allow assigning a "default destination" for phone numbers that are in inventory. This will allow for numbers in inventory to be routed to the main IVR, for example.

  17. Currently, Workflow Builder limits SMS ID to direct lines only. We propose enhancing this feature to allow the use of alternative phone numbers as SMS IDs. This expansion would provide greater flexibility for businesses with multiple phone lines or those wishing to use dedicated numbers for specific workflows.

    Key benefits:
    Increased versatility in workflow design
    Better alignment with diverse business communication needs
    Improved customer experience through consistent, recognizable SMS IDs

    We believe this enhancement would significantly improve the functionality of Workflow Builder and appreciate your consideration of this request.

  18. Device Orders should be searchable by any field that connects them to the user/extension they were ordered for, or the device shipped.

    Possiblities:
    • Phone number
    • Extension
    • User name
    • Device Serial Number
    • Device model
    • The site/address
    • ’Attention to’ line

    Right now, I have to know the date ordered & then manually check each order to find the one I need.
