  2. On a macOS device using Siri and Apple Intelligence to make RingCentral phone calls would allow for hands-free calling. This is a value add when making many phone calls a day.

  3. Although we have a feature available to change the caller ID per phone and features, it would be better if we also have an option in the Admin Portal where internal calls will not be limited to one caller ID only but with option to select any phone numbers on the account (user ext, main number, IVR assigned number and call queue number).

  4. Poly devices (VVX-250) used to be able to set a call-forward to a short extension number using the TUI.

    This function no longer works, meaning call-forwards must now be set using the full extension - i.e. site-code + short-extension.

    We were informed by support this stopped working because RingCentral discovered a 'bug' and by fixing the bug, it prevents call-forwards using short extension on poly handsets.

    This is causing a headache for our customers, some who only ever use the short extension to dial/transfer to each other and set call-forwards.

    Now when setting call-forward, they must enter the site code…

  6. Physical Phones Lose Settings.

    I have numerous phones that have their wallpaper and display settings reset for no apparent reason. This has been noticed across common area phones along with my own personal desk phone.

    • The phones are set up via assisted provisioning.
    • Looking for a Template to apply to all the devices once phones reboots/resync instead of changing the settings in the phones individually.

  7. RingCentral should allow roaming users to sign in to any phone whether it is assigned to another user or not. The "hotdesk phone" functionality is nice, but it doesn't allow calls to be placed from the phone unless someone is actively signed in. This feature was available in our last phone system.

  8. ability to add a Caller ID (CID) or area code to the Blocked Numbers/Area Codes option under each agent in RingCentral, so that the specified number or area code is blocked for the entire company, not just individual users.

  9. Allow Admins to setup Outbound Dialing restrictions for users to limit to specific Area Codes or Phone numbers. The current ability to only have standard or international will not fit what is needed to be able to restrict users of the phone system for local calling within a specific area code or codes dependent on user.

  10. Currently under Auto-Receptionist Settings - Fax and SMS are the same destination. Split the functions so that SMS and Faxing can be different destinations.

  12. Click to call in Microsoft edge.

    This can easily be done in Google chrome by the use of the Ring Central Google Chrome extension and the ring central desktop app.

    At the moment this logic has yet to be applied to Microsoft edge. In edge they have the extension but it doesn’t allow you to access it after downloading the extension.

  13. Poly Lens is a great management tool developed by Poly (now HP) to allow administrators to push policies and custom configuration down to Poly handsets. They have some integrations already with Microsoft and Zoom. It would be fantastic to have RingCentral work with them to have RC added to their integrations list, allowing the phones to be provisioned to RingCentral but configuration managed by Poly Lens.

  14. Implement measures to prevent unauthorized parties from joining or eavesdropping on active calls, such as end-to-end encryption, secure call authentication, or real-time alerts for unusual activities.

  15. 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!

  16. A way to easily block all external incoming calls but only allow select internal extensions to call extensions.

    The idea is to prevent anyone from outside the company from calling the select phone and allow people within the company to call those devices/phones.

    The use case for us is we are using Ring Central with Algo Intercom devices and would like to control who can call the intercoms. We do not want any spam calls that can call our intercoms.

  17. Make an option so whenever we pick up a call, DnD is temporarily turned on during the portion of the call, and once you're off the phone, you go back to available.

  18. A feature for outbound calling that will allow admins or users set up a limit or duration for outbound calls which will disconnect calls once the duration is reached. Example is if an extension has a 5 minute outbound call duration limit, after 5 minutes the call will end.

  19. Customer need to keep the dial pad fixed on-set on of an answered incoming calls
    currently the customer need to click first the dial pad icon on an active call to display the dial pad
    this is useful to lead generation, when winning the lead requires a key pressed on the dial pad (e.g. 1)

  20. Currently, when a user (Ext A) retrieves a call that was placed on hold by a monitored colleague (Ext B) using the "Enable me to pick up a monitored line on hold" feature, the system logic treats this as a full call takeover/transfer. If Ext A subsequently places that same call back on hold, the system triggers an automatic "Return to Sender" ringback to the original user (Ext B), appearing as an active Transfer in the call logs.

    If Ext A picks up Ext B's call and puts it back on hold, the call should revert to a "Neutral Hold"…
