  1. Often, calls which don't leave a voicemail message result in 1-3 minutes of an empty, "dead air" message. This uses up incoming toll-free minutes for no benefit. RC should detect there is no message being left and drop the call after 15-20 seconds.

  2. I would like to see the Time Zone for the out-bound call I am making. The person is not in my contacts. Please consider implementing a Time Zone feature that includes the Time Zone (with Time) popping up on the dialer, for the prefix or area code entered before entering the rest of the phone number. This would really be a big assist to our company. Thank you in advance.

  3. Sometimes our clients need translator services. We would like the ability to transfer our client and their translator (who's on a different line) to an extension. Currently, if we attempt this it disconnects both lines.

  4. When using actual desk phones with Ring Central, there needs to be a way to change your availability status for both as an individual and as a member of a call queue. Whether this is done via a softkey or a key combination such as *(number combination), it doesn't matter, it just needs to be something that is able to be accomplished. Currently, the only way to do this is to log into the app and toggle the availability status there.

  6. Hi is there any chance of having Ring Central office to have a 3-4 pin code for Voice Mails rather than having 6

  7. Currently in RingCentral Office, you have no way to directly send calls to a dial by name directory without inserting an IVR in the middle. This is extremely frustrating when contact center is on the front end. The caller has the option in Contact Center to transfer to the dial by name directory. They select that option. Then the RCO IVR says to press an option number again to then finally be transferred to the dial by name directory. This is not a great experience for the caller. I would rather see an option like the "message only extension" that…

  8. I think the subject line says it all. Faxing is antiquated and we don't use it. It came with Ring Central and all that I ever get on there is spam. I don't advertise a fax number and don't want it.

  9. If a user is in an appointment, away for an extended period, or on lunch, it would be helpful to forward the calls to a receptionist. Currently the call forwarding feature can only be enabled during specific times. It would be helpful to allow the user to enable call forwarding by changing their status to "do not disturb" or adding a new "call forwarding" status. That way it can be easily enabled when they know they will be away.

  10. For our business we would like to be able to text videos like we do from our non-Ring Central lines. Currently the MB limit is keeping our business team from executing this function.

  11. It is currently not possible to pause or stop recordings when the automatic call recording feature is turned on. We would like to have that ability. The current method to pause or stop a recording is only available with the on-demand (manual) recording process. Our employees may not remember to start a recording every call - and we may have some people who call and do not want to be recorded. The same option to press *9 to pause an on-demand recording should work for automatic recordings.

  12. If a call is forwarded to another extension from the an extension it would be nice to modify the incoming CID on the destination phone.Example:Call comes into extension 150.Extension 150 is set to forward to 170 if 150 doesn't answer.On extension 170 we would like to have the CID modified similar to what is done in Call Queues to indicate call came from another source and not their DID.-Mitch

  13. It would be great to have the option to enable alerts for users so that if they are being call monitored by someone they hear an audible alert.

  14. I have a bunch of contacts and it would be great if I could send specific texts to specific people all at once. Right now I have to add everyone individually. Ideally if there was an automation to select the groups and send out automate texts at specific intervals, it would take away all the manual work.

  17. I would like to have an option to be able to disable the Call Waiting tone when using the RC Phone app. I would like to keep the pop-up, but not have the Call Waiting tone in my ear when a second call comes in.

  19. Add a bulk download feature for items like invoices, history etc... Not a difficult fix programming wise.

  20. We have set business hours for our company, so that outside callers cannot reach us after 5pm, for example. HOWEVER, this also disables our own staff from calling one another. The calls go straight to voicemail. Would like the ability to have business hours for external calls and yet still be able to make calls to our internal RC users that are still in available status.
