Mobile-enabled phone system For most businesses today, BYOD bring your own device to work is here to stay. Yet integrating personal mobile devices into the corporate system is a challenge for management—and for security. RingCentral addresses this with the RingCentral mobile app, which fully integrates employee mobile devices into the company business phone system. Using the RingCentral mobile app, employees can make business calls, check business voicemail, send and receive business faxes and text messages, and access the company directory. They can set up or join voice conferences and online meetings. And because they are using their RingCentral business number, not their personal number, they maintain their business identity. The Cloud also means an added level of security, a constant worry with mobile devices used in business. Because the RingCentral mobile app streams everything to and from the cloud, data such as company numbers, call logs, voicemail, text messages, and faxes are not permanently stored on the user's phone. If a phone is lost or an employee leaves, simply disabling the account login ensures that no important company data can be accessed. Company numbers You have a wide range of options for your company phone numbers. You can establish your business in choice areas with a local number or transfer valuable existing numbers. Toll-free, vanity, and international numbers are also available on a global scale to make it easy for your customers to reach you.
