  1. Allow text messages sent to the same company number that the call queue is answering to be answered by any user in that call queue. Allow them to send messages from the company number and have a unified spot so that multiple users can respond. As our CSRs go off and on shift they should be able to pick up a text thread with a customer.

    Updated 9/8/23: This has been moved to Q1 2024Hi everyone, this is planned as a two parter: coming in December 2022, users will be able to select which number their outbound texts are sent through in settings. Coming later in 2023, users will be able to select their outbound number in the separate messaging window (not just in settings). This only addresses outbound caller ID. If you would like to see a more shared inbox group texting option, please vote for these ideas: Add a text message queue similar to the call queueTexts should go to multiple users
  3. Hello, we would like to use our Custom Fax Cover page for the entire company, (users with extensions) We must provide a disclaimer on our fax cover page as we send faxes with sensitive data. Currently our only option is to assist each of our end users to use the RC App or RC Phone App walking them through adding the custom cover page, and using the application to send faxes. We'd prefer to use SMTP / email to send out faxes, but then it reverts to using the templates provided by RingCentral. Currently it is 'Contempo' but it does…

  6. 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…

  7. There should be an ability to have call waiting for queue calls as using an IVR with set queues is the easiest way of having an overall system and using simultaneous rings for the same phone number that's a direct line vs using a queue for the IVR is a laborious set up process and tends to complicate a phone system for businesses and the customers.

    Hello all, wanted to share this video with you, to see if it matches your needs!It’s only a minute long, but note that there is no audio. In this video, a call queue member “SZ” receives and answers a call from the Test 1 call queue.After about 10-15 seconds, you’ll see a call pop-up in the Call Queue Pickup section of the HUD. This is a 2nd call that “SZ” then answers from Test 1 call queue, which puts the first call on hold.If this meets your needs, please let us know. We have also included the KB article.https://www.loom.com/share/59599e5b02a14bb6a84fcf02560a2c68 https://support.ringcentral.com/article-v2/Set-up-Call-Queue-Pickup-Group.html?brand=RC_US&product=RingCentral_MVP&language=en_US
  8. Add a feature where you can use the app while also using a desk phone. Background: We came from Mitel, where the app worked with the physical phone. So, if you were on your physical desk phone and you also had the desktop app open, the app would show your active call, and you were allowed to click actions on the app such as transfer a call directly to someone's voicemail by clicking 2 things, then you would hang up your physical phone.

  11. 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.

  12. 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.

  13. We have multiple phone numbers that all ring on the main line. It would be useful if we could have different ring tones to differentiate which number a caller used to contact us. (We are opening a branch office but keeping our Admin centralized.) This would be incredibly useful so that we know which service branch is being called.

  15. It would be useful to sync the desktop application with the physical desk phone so that when clearing voicemails both are updated. OR when a call is answered on the desk phone it doesn't appear as missed in the desktop application

  16. We use handsets and also link to our CRM Pipedrive. We have 3 handsets each with their own user/extension. All phones are on simultaneous ring. If someone else picks up the phone, my handset and CRM show that I missed a call. It'd be great if we had to ability to turn off missed call tagging. Even if we miss a call it rolls over to our answering service so the missed call tagging just creates confusion and frustration that I have to clear the notifications on my handset and CRM everytime someone calls.

  17. Account type: RingCentral MVP StandardA brief description of the business : naA high level description of the product or feature being requested: In the future, it would be great if there was some way to program the telephone service where a fraudulent entity would have no means of spoofing a number that is not legally theirs. A typical use case scenario explaining how your business would use the feature: Just for the numbers to only be usable for the subscribers that are on its own account, and be inaccessible for caller id use from fraudsters. It's hard to just keep…

  18. It would be nice to be able to have a contact list that is available to all employees so that when a customer calls, their information shows on the screen or so that when an employee would like to call a customer, they have access to their contact information. It seems the work-around for it right now is for the person that creates the contact to either export that contact and send it to all employees for them to import or email the contact info to all employees. Instead, it would be much easier to have a central database of…
