Ring Incoming Calls to Multiple Users

What it does

Multi-user ringing sends an incoming call to several team members at the same time. The first person to answer gets the call, and the others stop ringing.

How routing works

  • The number's main recipient (team member) rings along with any additional team members you add.
  • Each user rings on the devices set in their Forward calls to settings (web app, mobile app or forwarding phone).
  • If nobody answers before the timeout, the call goes to the fallback (voicemail or Voice AI).
  • With Inbound Call Routing by Working Hours turned on, users outside their schedule are skipped.

Set it up

  1. Go to Settings → Phone System → Phone Numbers.
  2. Click the three-dot menu next to the number and select Edit Configuration.
  3. On Basic Details, choose the main team member.
  4. Use Ring more team members to add others.
  5. Set the timeout and fallback, then save.

Tips

  • Make sure each added user can receive calls on at least one device.
  • Keep the list focused; ringing too many people can cause confusion.
