Good news everyone! Our Product team is working on a new Shared SMS product that will be available to RingEX customers for private beta testing in September and are ready to begin waitlisting customers who are interested today!
To join the waitlist and learn more about this private beta program, please email us at ideas@ringcentral.com and let us know you are interested in our Shared SMS beta. Our Product team will follow up shortly after.
Thank you!

If the inbox is not shared it's about as useful as the current setup (useless).
One team member cannot be on call 24/7 and be responsible for all inbound / outbound SMS messages.
The feature was promised to us as just a few months away when we signed up with ringcentral (2 years ago). Then we were pushed to ideas, then we got a Q2 date and a year later we don't even have the dollar store version above?

So as I found out today we are stuck with our current SMS provider until we are given a solution. We receive lead texts on our main company number (assigned to a queue) which is currently routed to a third party SMS provider where we have users assigned on the app in order to respond via the same number. Had thought that Ringcentral could simply route SMS's to the users app where they could respond in the same manner - Nope. And judging by this thread we'll be needing to use a third party service for a long time to come. Currently utilizing sms for inbound leads is literally unusable. Did anyone consider consulting with a business that actually uses SMS on a daily basis to see what they need, or simply take a look at what competitors are doing in the SMS space? This is basic stuff at this point in time.

We use on-call staff and a third party answering service to handle queue overflow via timed transfers - it's critical that we can see exactly who picked up these calls.

Hi everyone, you are now able to customize the announcement played during the call. Learn where in the Admin portal to update here.
While not the ability to completely turn off the announcement, this customization allows for different companies to take into account their unique compliance needs. If a disclosure is not needed, a silent recording could be uploaded as a workaround.
Thank you!

Any update on this ? .... we're 3 into this being a problem without an status update.
Surely you can simply turn the feature off completely and leave it at the discretion of the company to notify people to stay in compliance if required in that country / state.

Learn how to set up and apply a holiday call handling template as an admin here: https://support.ringcentral.com/article-v2/Setting-custom-holiday-rules-for-user-extensions.html?brand=RingCentral&product=RingEX&language=en_US
We pay ALOT for Ringcentral. We expect, and deserve better than this given the cost. The least you can do is give us clutter less, Ad-free notifications.
This is very underhanded marketing.
