Message Alerts

RingCentral’s message alerts service provides you with voice and fax notifications by email, text message alerts, or through the RingCentral Mobile app or RingCentral for Desktop.

Message alerts serve as your personal notification system when you receive voice or fax messages. Use it to receive alerts on your mobile device or computer, so you never miss an important message. Notification options, such as message alert tones or sounds, can be customized to meet your specific needs. Plus, you can easily monitor fax transmissions and use alerts with call logs to quickly review records of all communications. Whenever someone sends a message to you, you’ll receive an instant notification so you can quickly respond to it.
