  1. It's great that the HUD was added to the RingCentral desktop app however, the only thing for us that it seems to be lacking is the ability to adjust the layout of the pop out window for the HUD. We still use the RingCentral Phone app because the pop out HUD view allows me to customize my HUD window more than the HUD in the RC app. In the RC app I can't get everyone to appear on the same size window like I had with the RC Phone app. Please see attached screenshots

  2. For offices that use Ring Central for scheduling customers/confirming appointments, it would be great to be able to write out a text and have it scheduled to send on x day at x time. For example, if I wanted to tell Susan that her vet appointment is scheduled for 2:00pm on Wednesday, then I want it to send a prewritten text on Monday so that she can respond to confirm the appointment. It can help save time if you have extra time on a weekend to write out everything and then they're all scheduled to send when you don't have…

  3. Having a copy of the document that was faxed attached to the Fax Message Transmission Result email will be very helpful. In our case, as a law firm, we need to add a copy of that email to the case as proof that the fax was sent successfully. Having the document attached to the confirmation email will make it easier for the Legal Assistants, Paralegals, and Attorneys to identify which case that fax belongs to.

    September 2023 UpdateThank you for your responses and feedback everyone! Product has completed their research into this possibility and have confirmed that at this time, the feature is not on any upcoming roadmaps. With this update, the status for the idea has been changed to Future Consideration. Hello everyone, Thank you for your interest in this idea. As our product managers are researching this feature, they'd like to know if you want this to be for Direct Messages and Teams, or just Direct Messages? Please leave your feedback and use case via comment. Thanks all!
  5. My business would appreciate the option of an audio cue that occurs after an incoming call is transferred to you after a warm transfer on the desk phones. Currently it is difficult to distinguish when the call with the person transferring the call ends and when the transferred call begins. I request the option for a beep or short tone between the two calls.

  6. When there are a large number of members in a team it would be nice to be able to create a thread from a single message. This pulls that particular conversation out of the main flow of messages so the conversation doesn't get lost and can be continued by only the applicable parties.

  7. I would like to have an auto reply text message sent out for a call that is missed to the customer who placed the call.

  8. I've noticed that when not using RC but logged in (running in the background idle) it will change the status for users from a green dot to a gray dot (offline). Even though users are available for a call. Fellow coworkers think the user is offline when in reality they are not. This behavior is counterintuitive- It seems to me that a new idle status would work as opposed to showing user offline. Or maintain current status of available

  9. Allow Blocking to outbound numbers for things like do not call lists. This should be able to be done by role, individual extension, and account-wide.

  11. Tough to get users to take the time to upload and change their profile pictures. It would be great for admins to be able to use existing employee pictures (I.E. from Id badges/access cards) and update them globally. Even BETTER it would be great to be able to have Azure/Office365 pictures transfer over if an existing SSO conduit exists.

  12. Date and time stamp should be included in all text messages being sent within the RingCentral desktop app. At times, this is used in conjunction with our Accounting team to receive confirmation from users to approve certain matters. Having the text message only read 'today' does not help to validate when the communication actually took place (date and time). The only time date and time is included together is when it's a past date.

  13. We need the ability to set up "out of office" for messages and text messages. If someone calls me, they know I am out of the office. If they text me, however, there us no way to set up an auto reply so the know I am gone and will respond when I return.

  14. I use RC as my primary phone service. In many cases organizations send SMS messages from "short code" numbers. I can receive them on RC. But I can not respond. This is an important feature!

  15. In order to reduce missed calls in call queues, an option for clients to push '1' for a callback but keep their place in line is needed.

  16. Currently, if you are on a Call Queue call you can receive a personal (direct) call at the same time and can switch to that call, reject it, etc. We have some smaller call queues where it would be beneficial for one person to be able to pick up multiple calls at a time. E.g. They're on a call queue call, see that another is ringing, and they put the original call on hold and tell the second caller that they'll be with them shortly (etc).Clearly, this would not be suitable in every instance but having the option would be…

    Check out https://support.ringcentral.com/article/Set-up-Call-Queue-Pickup-Group.html for how to set up call queue pickup groups. When pickup members are also call queue agents, they can pick up multiple queue calls concurrently.The Call Queue Pickup feature allows any call queue pickup member to answer multiple queue calls concurrently. Here is a presentation showing all of the setup details and supported use cases and call flows. Please let us know if you have any questions. https://docs.google.com/presentation/d/1H1gaxrrboXCSjvifzIw8rRYGkHdQENN_oOu9W6P_4To/edit?usp=sharingThank you for providing additional feedback on your use cases. We've changed the status back to under review from implemented.
  17. Currently, the app rings at the same time as the desk phone. You set the desk phone to sequentially ring after the app but not before. I prefer the desk phone to ring first for a couple of rings, then the app on my cell phone would be called.

  18. Just had a use case, where an employee was trying to find someone in a dept to call, but there isn't an easy way to see who's working. Right now you'd have to start a conversation with each person, or click each person in the company contacts to view the status in their profile. It would make things a lot easier to have this presence state visible in the list view. Bonus if the company contacts could be sorted/grouped by dept.

  20. Most carriers I have worked with have the ability to send text messages to a phone number by sending an email. According to RC support this feature is not currently available. Would be a nice addition, especially for developers.Examples:##########@messaging.sprintpcs.com##########@vtext.com##########@txt.att.net
