Hi there, we began using Zoom phone ~1 year ago for our small business and have never been fully satisfied. I find the set up and customization of features confusing and don't have anyone else on my team who can help me with it. I would greatly appreciate set up guidance and would be happy to pay someone for their expertise. Some context on what we do and what I'm looking for:

 

We're a specialty auto repair shop open M-F 8:30am to 5:30pm. We field many calls a day from retail customers and individuals at other businesses we work with. Calls are typically to schedule appointments or ask for updates on repair/parts/etc.

 

Our General Manager is responsible for answering calls. He has a company-owned iPhone with Zoom installed on it. If he's unavailable, the calls ring through to my account.

 

One big problem: our GM's phone no loner has a cellular plan, so if he's not on wifi he can't receive Zoom calls. He's often on the road visiting customers and needs to be able to receive calls during those visits. 

 

What I'm looking for:

1. Fix our GM's need to be on wifi. Do I need to also get a cellular plan? Is there a way to have cellular internet only so the Zoom phone is always accessible? Any other suggested solutions?

2. Have calls ring first to my GM and then to me if he doesn't answer after a certain amount of time.

3. Have voicemail box set up with a professional answering message.

4. Direct customers to voicemail via a professional automated message if it is outside of our operating hours. 

5. Anything else to make us appear more professional to callers.

 

Thank you in advance.

Resolved! Call Analytics

Is there a way to set time of day parameters in The Call Queue Real-Time Analytics? I'm looking to pull all the data in that section by shift.

Add User to Call Queue for Set Amount of Time/Schedule

Our office has some rotating staff who are sometimes (but not always) responsible for handling calls from one of our Call Queues. Right now, it's somewhat burdensome for us to manually enable/disable their Call Queue membership (or the "Receive Call Queues" user setting) repeatedly, or during certain weekend/holiday hours. Is there any way to set a schedule and/or time limit for call queue membership? So for example, if we know Employee A will be covering the call queue from Fri-Mon, we could just set that schedule somewhere instead of having them (or an admin) manually go flip the switch every time there's a change?

Has anyone gotten around to understanding Zoom analytics? For context, my role at my job is to export their analytics to then see how many agents were logged in on a specific day, total handling time, etc. But when I review the Call Queue Historical Reports, I'm presented with less-than-helpful statistics of 'Avg Call Handling Time' and stats that don't really outline how the day went. And when I export for multiple days in a given date range, the data is automatically aggregated? Exporting the Detail report just sends me down a rabbit hole of having to analyze data where 1 call has more than 1 record of data associated with it, when all I want to know is was the call completed or was it abandoned/overflow. Anyone have any helpful tips on navigating this? I'm used to having way more control in terms of creating reports within an existing system, but Zoom doesnt give me that option...

How to route or transfer calls automatically by caller area code or region?

I have two users in Zoom Phone who handle calls from different Canadian provinces. User A only handles clients from Ontario and QuebecUser B only handles clients from Alberta and British Columbia I would like incoming calls to be routed automatically... Show more

I have two users in Zoom Phone who handle calls from different Canadian provinces.

 

  • User A only handles clients from Ontario and Quebec

  • User B only handles clients from Alberta and British Columbia

 

I would like incoming calls to be routed automatically based on the caller’s area code. For example, if the caller’s number is from an Ontario or Quebec area code, the call should go to User A. If the caller’s number is from an Alberta or British Columbia area code, it should go to User B.

Is there a way in Zoom Phone to route or transfer calls automatically by caller area code or region, and if so, how can I set this up?

Hi all,

 

Manually adding members to a Call Queue's Voicemail Access Member list one at a time is very tedious and time consuming. Please can we have an option to automatically add all Call Queue Members into the Voicemail Access Member list? Or, at least let us add more than one user at a time and not have to click each little tick box for the permission we want to give them?

 

Many thanks,

D
