PBX Routing Functions

Smart Ring Groups

Never miss an important call. Ring multiple extensions at once or in sequence until someone is available to answer.

Simultaneous Ring

All extensions in the group ring at the exact same time. The first agent to pick up wins the call, minimizing wait times for clients.

Round-Robin Distribution

Distribute the workload fairly. This strategy rotates incoming calls evenly across your team so no single agent is overwhelmed.

Linear Hunt

Establish an exact order. Try the first extension, and only move down the list to the next person if the current agent doesn't answer.

No-Answer Fallback

Never drop a lead. If nobody in the entire group answers, safely route the call to a shared voicemail, an external number, or an IVR.

Mixed Extension Types

Combine on-premise hardware desk phones, remote mobile app softphones, and external cell numbers all within the same ring group.

Configurable Ring Timers

Gain precise control over timing. Set exactly how many seconds an extension or the whole group should ring before failing over.
