  1. It would be extremely useful to be able to disable an associate from removing themselves from taking queue calls. As you can imagine, if an employee chooses they no longer want to take calls but their supervisor did not approve it. They could stop taking calls without the supervisor ever knowing (Not good for anyone). This also requires additional reporting. We also have an extra step of pulling a report to see which associates took themselves off of queue calls every day (Not efficient). I believe it would be helpful to be able to exclude that feature through roles whether…

  2. Today you are required to use the RC app to put all of your devices into DND. Users should be able to press the DND button on the physical endpoint and that status should sync over to the other physical devices or softphones that are assigned to that user. This would make it much easier from an end-user perspective, especially those that don't want to bring up the app to enable DND.

  3. Remove the missed call notification for queue members when another queue member answers the call. Only display missed call notification when no one in the queue answers the call.

  4. 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.

  5. 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.

  6. 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.

  7. 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.

  8. 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!

  9. 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

  10. I have a client that needs to use this feature for tornado warnings, tornado drills, fire drills, mass alerts to the company. They have 75 devices on hand in various rooms throughout the facility and need to be able to page all of them to alert individuals in the building of an emergency.

  12. We have noticed that Non-Super Admin users can elevate themselves to "Super Admin." This could potentially cause security issues and business impact.Non-Super Admins should not be able to change their role to a “Super Admin” or remove the SA role from other accounts.Scenario: We have our Non-Super admins that have “User Management” under their role, they need this to be able to choose a different role for MACD (move,add,change,delete) requests but we don’t want them to have the ability to change their own permission to “super admin.” Only another “super admin” should have the ability to change someone else to…

  13. When on a call, there is currently no way to automatically silence or forward incoming calls. This is disruptive to the current call, especially because the ringing of the incoming call is louder than the person on the current call. The user can choose to send the incoming call to voicemail, but there are still several second of disruption which can be very distracting. The solution would essentially mean making the user automatically enter DND mode when they are on a call or video.

  14. As a super admin we should have access to all users passwords without having to change their password or pin! As owners of the business and phone account we shouldn't have to go through this to protect ourselves from suspicious activity from employees! You are putting us at risk without this ability! I call technical support and all they tell me is to change the pin or password but even if I do that the person assigned to that extension gets an automatic email and voicemail from Ringcentral that their setting has been changed or modified! That sucks.

  15. Why is a holiday/night "button" not available in the RingCentral universe? This has been a feature of traditional PBXs for DECADES. There needs to be a way that Holiday/Office Closed greeting and menus are simply activated, and a selection of several menus should be available. Not all businesses have regular hours, and circumstances sometimes dictate that the office is closed. Snowstorm? Fire across the street? My client's 20+ year old Toshiba PBX had a simple way to do this. Last person out would activate it OR it could be activated remotely through the voice menus.

  16. We currently cannot quickly text a customer while we are on the phone with that customer while using the desktop program on computer (not the extension). We have to take multiple steps such as: Go to text and create a new text, search their contact, etc. A simple and easy solution to this would be one of 2 options below:Show the Ongoing Call in the calls area, while we are on the call (currently the call only shows after we end the call). This will allow us to text someone quickly just as we can any past calls that show…

  17. 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.
  18. It would be nice to be able to set a users status remotely to DND if they are away from their desk or out of office.
