Ring groups

Ring several people at once from one Dialstitch number or IVR option, and choose what happens when nobody answers.

A ring group rings everyone in it at the same time. The first person to answer gets the call. Admins manage ring groups under Admin, then Ring Groups.

Create a ring group

  1. Start

    Select Create Ring Group.

  2. Name and members

    Enter a Name and tick the Members to ring.

  3. Ring time

    Set Ring for (seconds), from 5 to 120. The default is 30.

  4. If nobody answers

    Choose Go to voicemail or Forward to a phone number.

  • People on Do Not Disturb are skipped.
  • People who forward their calls ring on their forwarding number.
  • Everyone rings at once. To ring people in order or spread calls fairly, use a call queue.

Use a ring group

Point a number at it on the number's Routing tab, pick it in an IVR menu (Ring a ring group), use it in a workflow Transfer step or as a queue's overflow, or transfer a live call to it.
