Hold timeout / Redial back after Hold exceeds timeout limit
We have had multiple companies using the phone, leave someone on Hold and become busy enough to forget about the call, if there was the ability to set a timeout for a Hold that would send their call back through after the timeout, it would help resolve this issue. (also if they focused on completing the call)computerss4 months agoNew Member130Views0likes0Commentscallback from call queue - 20228975

Can we have a function in Dial Plans to append to caller IDs instead of modifying, for call tracking purposes. This way a call from John Smith to a Dial Plan could be shown as "Custom Text - John Smith" or a call from 1800-800-8888 could be shown as "Custom Text - 1800-800-888". This would allow users to know whether the call was initiated to just them directly or to which dial plan it is coming through.

In the Mobile and Desktop apps, when you have multiple extensions assigned to you and you switch from one extension to the other, the Voice mail reflects this change. However, the calls and recent activity do not reflect the extension but rather the user. It would be nice to have these reflect the extension from an organizational perspective. For example, I have an employee who monitors two extensions, one for English and one for Spanish language callers. Having the call logs and recent activity separated by the extension, like voicemails, would help to identify the difference in callers. Another Example is for extensions assigned to different locations.rhatch4 months agoActive Contributor131Views0likes0CommentsApp Suggestion: Extension Handling
When using the GOTO app on iOS, you can switch between assigned extensions. However, the extension names displayed are all the same (business name). You don't know what extension you select unless you know the extension by number. Please change this so the extension name assigned shows up instead of the business name. The online app needs help here too. Instead of the business name, it displays the device assigned to the extension. So every extension could show up twice, once on the Softphone and once on the device. Again the appropriate extension name would be nice.rhatch4 months agoActive ContributorNew136Views0likes0CommentsImport contacts to Private list

It would be very advantageous to create Outbound Queues so contact users can define the type of call they're making. This would be perfect for reporting for showing how many outbound calls we made of a certain type. Administrator could define call recording per outbound queue type. Administrators could also define caller IDs per outbound queue type. Prior to an outbound call a user could select the outbound queue they want to categorize that call as and the caller ID, call recording, etc would all take place.

Scenario: A private channel was created for multiple staff of a department to ask each other questions, make announcements, etc. The user that created it, perhaps a supervisor or department lead, is the channel's admin. Then, that person leaves the company, and they are removed from GoToConnect. However, they are still listed as the Channel's admin (now marked as external), and nobody is able to administer the channel (i.e: remove ex-employees, policy violators, etc.). Apparently there is no way to change who the channel admin is. Level 2 support informed me of this and suggested that the only option is to create a new channel and add the users you want to be a part of it. That, however, would require an announcement for all staff in that channel to leave the old one and start using the new one, and would render inaccessible the chat history of the old channel. I think we can all appreciate how well that would work out! Please add the ability to assign another user as the admin of a current channel.mgpegre8 months agoNew Member160Views0likes0CommentsAdd more granular permission levels

When editing the schedule in the new admin portal at admin.goto.com, any changes made to the schedule are saved instantly. This is not the case when using the old admin portal at onjive.com. I think it's definitely a usability problem if any update, especially erroneous ones, are instantly saved. You can imagine the unintended consequences if all calls start to follow the "when closed" route when the business is supposed to be taken calls, and conversely, if calls start to follow the "when open" route when the business is actually closed. This is why I still use onjive.com to edit the schedule, but I understand at some point, onjive.com will be retired.
