/ What it does

Every voicemail lands on the record, where the team already works.

Voicemail transcription for boat dealers starts with pulling voicemails in about every half hour. Voicemails from RingCentral are pulled in about every half hour, stored with audio, transcribed and linked to the person by phone number. They appear next to the calls and texts on that record, and voicemails to tracked numbers can create a lead if the caller is unknown.

  • Audio and transcript stored on the record
  • Matched to a lead, customer or staff member by phone
  • Shown in the merged conversation and in history
  • Voicemails to tracked numbers can create a lead; see call tracking
  • Collected about every half hour
  • Fax is logged on the same timeline
/ How it works

From a voicemail to a reply

  1. 01

    A caller leaves a voicemail

    It rings to your RingCentral line.

  2. 02

    BoaterOS picks it up

    About every half hour, new voicemails come in with audio and transcript.

  3. 03

    It lands on the record

    The rep sees the text and can play the audio.

  4. 04

    The rep replies

    Text or call back from the same thread.

Limits

Not every voicemail gets a transcript

Most do, but a share arrives without one.

It is not instant

Voicemails are collected on a schedule, so they can trail the call by up to about half an hour.

RingCentral is required

Voicemail capture reads from your RingCentral lines. Other phone systems are not supported.

Accuracy follows the audio

A noisy marina call transcribes like a noisy marina call. Play the audio when the detail matters.

/ Questions
