  1. We recently migrated to RingCentral and have come to discover that one of the biggest features we use is not available with RingCentral. From our desk phones, we are unable to conference if the two calls we want to conference are both external. It gives a busy signal instantly.To clarify, if we call an external phone number, then try to conference with a second external number, this does not work. However, if we call an internal extension, and then try to conference an external phone number, that works fine. If we call an external number and conference and internal number,…

  2. I am not happy with the new UI and before the UI changed for Users for Call Handling and Custom Rules it looked the same as Call Queues and had the option for "Validate Rules" to make sure that no rules were conflicting. I did testing and found that there was no way of telling if the rules were conflicting and it just allowed the rule to be turned on without any type of warning.This NEEDS to be re-implemented into the system because now it is not telling my 13+ warehouse managers if there is a conflicting rule when they're…

  3. When we phone out, our location on people's caller ID shows us located in a different city and province than where we are located. This is becoming a problem as people are sensitive to possible scams and/or want to deal with local companies only. We have to explain that it's VOIP and when we signed up this was how the number was assigned but people are skeptical. Also, some won't answer our calls because they aren't local. There should be a way to change the number of locations to reflect where we are!

  4. The Problem: Currently, admins cannot restrict users to using only Call Queue numbers as their outbound ID. We have specific teams (Sales, Support) that must present the Call Queue number when calling out so that customers return the call to the correct department.

    The Solution: Please add an option under the Caller ID Restriction settings to allow/enforce "Call Queue" numbers as the Outbound Caller ID.

    Impact:

    Better Customer Experience: Customers calling back will reach the team, not a specific agent who might be offline.

    Compliance: Ensures agents aren't accidentally displaying direct lines or the wrong main company number.

  5. When you export the User List from Users > Download User List, in Column Q, it tells you if the user has a Softphone or Desk phone assigned to them. When you go to Phone System > Phones & Devices > User Phones > Edit Device Configuration > Download Template, it gives you a list of the Desk phones assigned to each user with their Serial Numbers. It would be nice to combine this information in each report to one report so that an Admin would be able to know which device type, phone number, and Serial Number (if applicable)…

  6. Currently when a call is transferred to an agent from Reception you are not able to see the call display number, you can only see "Main Admin". It would be helpful for the person who is receiving the call to be able to see who is calling.

  7. It would be helpful to be able to block users assigned to a specific site from being able to transfer calls to users at another site.

    This would be helpful to add into the roles and permissions, or to limit within the user details -> settings and permissions.

  8. Group > Call Queues > Overflow Group - Ring Simultaneously. When I configure this, I just get two options Longest Idle and order.

    Reason we find this extremely handy is we can put our admin/receptionist(s) in the first group and then overflow to the rest of the office if they cannot get the call. Improved call flow rather than just ringing everyones PC/Phones/Mobile on every call.

    Thank You

  9. Need the option to route a call away from the IVR if there is no input after 1 time of the audio being played. Currently only option is for the IVR message to play 3 times before it transfers off somewhere. This has been raised by numerous customers as a huge gap

  10. Phones to ring MUCH longer than standard, up to 5-10 minutes. The current limit is 15 rings (75 seconds). Administering call queues or other workarounds is not scalable across 100s of potential extensions (the use case here is for a public sector healthcare project).

    This would not be a good setting for all customers, but having a backend option for "Super long ringing" would be useful!

  11. Customer would like access to create, upload, and manage their own custom configs for their Poly devices instead of relying on SEs or PS or support for ongoing MACD as their requirements evolve.

  12. We hope that this feature would be added to our RingCentral App as it make sense to have the capability to completely transfer a conference call to a 3rd party carrier and keep the call active. Today, in RC App the conference call is just like a merged call and we can't leave the meeting without being disconnected and also we don't have any transfer feature available to it as well. Our customer is at risk now of cancelling their RC Office Premium service if we cannot provide this feature to help them improve their customer service as they support…

  13. It would be great if we have the ability to change the company name that appears in the App for some users that assigned to another site within a Multi-site setted up account.Especially for customers that uses Multi-site to manage their multiple line of businesses, not branches.

  16. Please add ring groups to call queues, it is not acceptable to make all users receive the call because they are using the app. At least make it to where we can create Ring Groups within the call queue OR to where we can forward calls from the app to another extension using the app

  18. At the moment only the main fax sender/recipient will display the company fax number on outgoing fax messages. For every other user that sends a fax, the main phone number will be displayed instead of a fax number.This is an essential feature for companies with multiple fax users, especially where a fax response is needed.

  19. I have found that the IVR text to speech is useful and effective. It would be helpful if we could use this same text to speech function for other messages in RingCentral. Examples:Custom voicemail greetingsCustom connection messagesAnywhere that RingCentral allows you to record a custom message, those are places where text to speech would be useful

  20. We have a RingCentral account that has many daughter companies under one account. Each daughter company has its own main number, but the softphone will show the parent organization's account number as the "Main Company Number". I can only assume that other accounts are in the same predicament, uncommon though it may be. We would like the ability to choose what sites can see the different company numbers, choose to only show a user the phone numbers assigned to their site, or at the least hide the Main Company Number from the users.
