I have Zoom Phone package. Zoom Workplace, Version: 6.1.11 (45504) I would like my company name to appear in the call recipient's Caller ID when making an outbound call. I would also like to include it at the bottom of SMS texts, maybe with the "Reply STOP to cancel. Reply HELP for help." message that's generated. I am sure I missed something, but I have looked through the settings, googled results, Zoom help & Zoom Community and can't seem to find out how to do either. Thank you, David

Hello, we recently ported all our numbers to Zoom and everything seems to be performing as expected, with one exception. We had a message-only extension with our previous provider, there is no phone number assigned to the user, who has a basic Zoom phone license assigned. I set up our IVR, assigned a placeholder user extension and now want to edit that to ring the voicemail extension. When I try to set the key action as Forward to User I receive this error message "This feature requires a Zoom Phone Metered, Unlimited, or Pro plan." I do not want to assign a license for an extension only to collect voicemails. Short story, I need to be able to route to voicemail using IVR for an account with a basic license. Can anyone tell me what I am doing wrong, or offer a solution? Thank you

I want to buy the $15 package for calling unlimited to the USA and Canada i read it carefully, and it said regional so my question is that ; do I need to be in the USA to call in the USA for free (unmetered) or can I call from Pakistan to the USA for free (unmetered) with the $15 (unlimited USA and Canada regional call) package from Zoom phone? or to call from Pakistan to the USA for free I'll have to buy the $20 package?

We recently installed the Zoom Salesforce integration. I noticed when a user clicks to call a number it pops open the desktop app. This is annoying and unneeded. How do we turn it off?
Hi all, I've been having a real head-scratcher of an issue and can't think of anything else. I'm relatively new to telephony and these systems, but recently we migrated to Zoom phone from Avaya. In our environment we have a few analog lines for a paging system, I believe the model is a Bogen PCM2000. How it worked was the line was assigned an extension. On any desk phone, you would call the extension, it would give a confirmation beep prompting to select your zone (00 for all, 01 for first floor, 02 for second floor, etc). We have 3 zones. You would dial 00 and then the paging system would play an announcement tone and then let you make your announcement. Since moving to Zoom, instead of using the analog line back to our MDF, we are using a Poly ATA 402 that is directly connected to our network switch, and an RJ-11 line coming from the ATA plugging into our paging system. According to other documentation I've seen, I believe the configuration is set up correctly, with the RJ-11 going into the station port on the Bogen, switch set to CC/LS instead of VX/GS, and the other switch set to station and not trunk. In this configuration I am able to dial the extension with a desk phone I also have connected to our network switch and get the confirmation beep to select a zone. The issue I'm having is when I dial 00, nothing happens, almost like it doesn't register. I've tried different speeds, I've tried waiting different times to do it, doesn't work. If I keep pressing 0s, it will eventually register and activate the page, but it is wildly inconsistent. Sometimes if I dial 0000, it will activate, sometimes its 000000, sometimes if I do 00, then wait 5 seconds, then press 00 again, it'll work, etc. For the life of me I cannot figure out why it's doing this. A zoom rep talked previously about DTMF issues, which I believe. He sent me a provision template to bind to the ATA from Zoom as well as a template to bind to the Yealink phone, mostly looking like it's identifying a minimum dtmf length and gap. However, these did not remedy the issue and it is still wildly inconsistent. If I plug the old Avaya analog line back into the paging system and call the number associated with it, it works as intended. It's only when hooked up to the ATA that I have this issue. The Poly is attached to an extension within zoom just called "building A paging". I feel like the issue lies with the ATA, but I'm not sure if there's something I'm missing on the zoom end that might be affecting it. Anyone else experienced a weird situation like this? Thanks for any info provided.

This has been really frustrating, i keep on getting different answers for zoom support. What i wanna do is really simple and shouldn't be so complicating: I have a main number with an auto receptionist for my business. (Dial 1 for customer service, dial 2 for our hours and location etc.) and one user\ext. (me). I want to be able to send and receive SMS text messages. But because the number is the main company phone number i am unable to do so:( Any help would be appreciated.

Can you save or print "live transcript" from Zoom phone calls? If they are automatically saved somewhere can someone please tell me how/where to retrieve the transcript?
I am unable to access my zoom phone tab from my desktop, its basically not showing up there and I'm making calls through mobile, I have tried signing out and logging back too for multiple times but still facing the same issue
