  1. An administrative assistant who has a presence line on their handset, answers the presence line extension and determines that the caller should leave a message to the originating extension. There isn't a way at this moment for the call to be routed or transferred to the originating extension.

  4. Many times a user receives a voicemail and want to forward it to another user to handle. We cannot receive voicemails via email, so forwarding a voicemail to another extension is a highly valuable feature. This allows the person who received the voicemail to forward it and add additional info to the next recipient without having to write it down and give it to the other person.

  5. We run multiple business endeavors between my wife and I and we would find it helpful if we could log into multiple "phones" at the same time, similar to how multiple e-mail addresses can be accessed from a single email client. This would allow us to be able to "switch phones" right in the app, so that when I'm done with a call for my business, I can return a call from my wife's business without having to log out and log back in again.

  6. Please add an option under Automatic Call Recoding that will allow for us to chose to enable the announcement for Internal calls.Currently the three options are:1) Play periodic tones for outbound calls2) Play Call Recording Announcement for Outbound Calls 3) Allow mute in auto call recording This has been asked before and turned down with the reasoning of ADMIN RESPONSE May 3, 2023Our Product and Legal teams have confirmed that this feature will not be implemented as it exposes RingCentral to unnecessary vulnerabilities.

  7. This should match the physical phone settings as well. If I put my phone on DND, it does not show on the phone screen (which the preset buttons should turn red, as it does when someone is on a call) nor on the app to others that I'm busy. I shouldn't have to put my phone on DND through the app in order for others to see this. RingCentral really has taken a step back compared to Mitel.

  8. Would be nice to have the ability to answer more than 1 call when some calls into a call queue. We have a store that gets a lot of calls and the ability to place a call on a brief hold to answer another would be a great feature.

  9. We would like to send texts to our employees and do a blind copy of all the numbers. Currently we can do a group text of up to ten people but it is not a blind copy. Is there a feature that we can use?

  10. On the IVR Menu settings, there should be an option to route the call to a specific extension if the caller enters an invalid selection for nth time.

  11. we are in need of a custom rule to route calls with no caller ID to a specific call queue and not the main line for our company. I understand this is not a feature currently in the system, but this is an urgent need for our business and hopefully could be looked at and set up soon.

  13. people that are hard of hearing need closed captions for phone calls too; not just video meetings. This feature should be accessible in the Phone App and for voice mail; it should provide a text version of the voice mail.

  14. In our buildings we have a handful of full user phones but most are shared house phones using limited extensions. In an emergency it would be helpful to be able to call a paging group from a limited extension, At present Ring does not allow this.

  15. The program does not allow for us to put the company info. in the template. I think this is a disadvantage because you are unable to say who the fax is to.

  16. When a user is already on a call, and another call comes in, the phone continually rings over the original call.This makes it difficult to hear the original caller.I would propose that if a user is on a call and another comes in, RC makes a single ring tone to indicate another call is waiting, then just leave the pickup wizard on screen for the user to interact with.

  17. We have users that may be away from their desk or unable to answer a call that is transferred to them. Rather than having the call go to VM we would like it to go back to the person who transferred the call so they can then ask the caller if they would like to talk to someone else or if they would like voicemail. Then they can be transferred to another user that can help them or they can be transferred directly to the persons voicemail.

  18. Many of our users have custom rules with a custom voicemail greeting. They use them for "out of office", "in a meeting", "out to lunch", etc. When a Custom rule is applied, the custom greeting is heard by callers dialing the DID and through the main line but anyone internal who dials that user's extension does not hear the custom greeting. They only hear the user's standard greeting. Currently the "extension" is not listed as one of the conditions in Custom Rules so we cannot select it. This would be very useful to have this feature. Thank you for considering…
