  • Product Area: Zoom Meetings / Zoom App Experience

  • Feature Title: Native In-App Confirmation Capture


Description

Currently, users who need to capture a visual confirmation (such as a meeting schedule confirmation, registration success, or similar in-Zoom-web messages) must use an external tool like the Snipping Tool or screenshot utility to capture the necessary information from the Zoom website.

This process is disruptive and inefficient, particularly for frequent users who are already operating within the desktop application.

Proposed Solution

We request the addition of a native feature within the Zoom desktop application that allows users to easily capture, copy, or save visual confirmations without needing to navigate to the Zoom website or use an external screenshot tool.

This could take the form of:

  1. A dedicated "Copy Confirmation" button on key confirmation pages/dialogs within the app.

  2. A built-in screenshot utility specific to the confirmation window, which automatically saves the image to a designated folder or copies it to the clipboard.

    User Benefit

Implementing this feature would significantly improve the workflow convenience and efficiency for users, allowing them to remain within the Zoom application ecosystem when capturing necessary documentation, thereby eliminating the extra steps of switching to a browser and using a third-party snipping tool.

If you get a sales rep that cares, good for you, but mines was horrible. His name was JL and he would not help with setup. He would just direct us to other people, so I dont know why he was hired. Then to setup, the process takes long and you have to keep chatting with others to get your phone system up and running. Then the biggest headache is setting up the SMS text messaging. It took numerous times to get it approved and you have to argue with customer service to help you with what is wrong with the SMS registration. After I got it done, which took two months by the way, they proceed to tell me that I must purchase another license and my team could not all text from the same phone number which is our main number for the office. At this point I am done with Zoom. I ended the subscription and you have to contact yet again customer service for this. Numerous agents have stated my account will end by this day and now they are saying it is on a soft pause and that I need to wait till it goes back to basic to terminate. I requested termination a month ago by the way. I had to call customer service because the guy John I was virtually talking to started yelling at me via text with all his exclamation points. It has been an exhausting experience and one I hope will. help someone else with not turning to ZOOM for their phone services. I hated the customer service and everybody is rude. Complete waste of time and energy when it is supposed to be an easy experience.

Was wondering if anyone can help me solve this issue
On all Outbound calls the voice prompt "Call may be monitored for Quality Assurance" comes on. We as a company do not have call recording enabled, so I do not understand why this prompt plays. I have ensured that the Prompt "play a disclaimer prompt to call participants" has not been selected for any of our monitoring participants. Is there something I am missing? Thank you!

A series of shortfalls: Paging, Call Queues, Ring Tones, Greeting

We are new to Zoom Phone as of this week. We had been with Ring Central a few years prior. 

 

I am very surprised to find that Zoom is missing the most basic of things for the phone functions. 

 

  • Paging - we have Polycom VVX 350 desk phones. The Keys & Buttons setting does not work for "Paging - Line". When applied to the user, it never appears as an option on their phone soft keys. Broken. 
  • Paging - You can get around this at least, by picking up the hand set and entering the Extension number assigned to a Paging group. But when you do, it still does not work right at all. Instead of hearing a Page across all the phone speakers, it makes the phones RING. If a person does not pick up the phone, they miss the page. For us, this is a major safety issue. We use phone paging for critical announcements, and calls to other staff for assistance if a client is in crisis at the desk
  • Call Queues - I had written about an issue with this, and then suddenly an hour after I posted this, all the Queues started to work correctly to show all calls and what status calls were - very odd. 
  • Ring Tones - while you can pick a ring tone in your app, you have no way to ever play it / test it. You have no idea what your ring tone is until it actually has a call come through. 
  • Greeting - You cannot change your greeting in the app. You have to go into the website portal, log in there, click on phone, then click your settings, then scroll way down, then go to Add Audio to finally get to a spot where you can record a new greeting. That is extremely convoluted and cumbersome when people tend to change their Greeting a couple of times a day to inform callers of their availability. In other cloud phone services I have worked with, you can record a greeting right out of the desktop app with 2 clicks! 

I cannot find anywhere in the Zoom community system, any kind of list of Features being worked on, or a voting system for features. I have found a number of posts about these issues above, but they all died for further replies many months (in some cases years) ago. So these are not new queries on my part - people have been asking about this stuff for a few years already. But there seems to be no updates or follow up by zoom on these things? 

 

aIs there some secret place I have not found yet?

Is there a way to mute incoming calls from my phone while I'm on a call in my Zoom phone app?

 

Context:

I'm using the Zoom app on my phone to make a call.

A call comes in from my phone (not zoom).

It rings in my ear while I'm on my Zoom phone call.

 

Can I mute it or send it straight to voicemail while I'm on another Zoom call?

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...

Good afternoon,

 

I have an Axis A8105-E intercom door camera, and I would like to get it working with Zoom Phone. After entering in all the information for the manual provisioning, and enabling sips I was able to get it provisioned with Zoom phone. I can make calls to the common area extension assigned to the phone, with the device automatically picking up and two way audio established. However, when I press the button and attempt to have the device call a Zoom extension, or even an outside phone number, the call rings, and when the recipient picks up the call just ends.

 

Are there any settings I am missing? Any insight or advice would be greatly appreciated.

Within the last 3 weeks, we suddenly have multiple users report that the microphone on Jabra Speak2 75 no longer works. The odd part is, EVERY other app we test works just fine. Only Zoom is having the issue?  Any thoughts?  We did make sure they are on latest firmware. 

 

- They have been in use for almost a year before we started hearing some issues. It seems like it changed in the last month, as we had not heard of this behavior and suddenly now we have 4 tickets open.

- All of ours are using the wired USB going straight into either the laptop USB or the USB on the monitors.

- Zoom Workspace Version 6.6.6 (19875)
