The best knowledge about a call queue is to experience the call queue from the user’s perspective. Call the number from a cell phone. What do you hear? What do you experience? This perspective provides valuable information about what settings could be adjusted for a better experience. 

As always, after modifying the settings, call again to verify the call queue is functioning as expected. RingCentral allows call queue managers and individuals to manage their own account settings for maximum benefit.
