After so many of my clients have ended up with my cell phone number and text me at all hours - I decided I would finally upgrade my Ringcentral account that I ahvehad for about 12 years to the business plan that will allow that.
I can;t seem to get the RC app set up to receive texts though and wondering if it's just not really capable of what I need.
I have a main account number (which i never use) and 2 business phone numbers that I answer with diff business names. I ahvealways just forwarded voice calls to my cell using the called number so I keep straight which way to answer - so I have never used the RC app.
Now with wanting texting - I have to use the app - but it is looking like I have to sign into and out of each number in order to receive texts - which would totally defeat the purpose.
Am I missing something or shuldI just revert to my previous less expensive plan and find an alternate solution (even carrying a separate "work" phone is an option!)
You can forward the inbound texts for more than one number to a single place like your cell or email. You will still have to log out and back in to reply from that number though.
I'm not aware of a product that manages in and outbound SMS for multiple numbers/business easily, but I'll bet there is something out there for a price.
Any suggestions for a way to accomplish what I need - being able to text clients using my business numbers on one phone?
