Enhance Call Handling

Group Call Timeout Action

Optimise your call handling by forwarding unanswered calls to the next available number with the Group Timeout Action.

Ensure That All Calls Get Answered

When a call is directed to a group and no member of the group answers within a specified time period, the Group Timeout Action comes into play. Businesses can define the specific actions they want to take when this situation occurs, tailoring them to their unique needs and preferences.

For example, if a call to a sales team goes unanswered within 30 seconds, the Group Timeout Action can be configured to forward the call to another available sales representative or to a designated backup group. This ensures that the caller’s needs are promptly addressed and prevents calls from being left unanswered or going to voicemail unnecessarily. Alternatively, businesses may choose to route the call to a voicemail box where the caller can leave a message for follow-up.
