Overview

Sagecom Cloud Virtual Office is the ideal solution for small businesses looking to enjoy a feature-rich, efficient and global presence telecom solution without extensive cost implications and hardware or software requirement.

• Configuring Virtual Office takes minutes and does not require technical
  expertise. 

• With Virtual Office, you do not need to own SIP phones or ATAs, as all calls
  are routed to existing mobile or fixed-line phone numbers. 

• You have the option to configure your own business hours, and create a
  flexible “active period” for calls, then sending after-hours calls to Voice
  Mail. 

• All IVR prompts can be recorded online or uploaded from a file. 

• Virtual Office can be added to your existing telecom services; there is no
  need to discontinue services from your existing provider or port phone
  numbers.

Call Block

This section allows users to manage a “block list” of numbers. This call block list
can include individual numbers or area codes. If the caller’s number is on the
block list, the incoming call to that phone number will be automatically dropped.
The call will not be shown in the Inbox. It is possible to exclude specific numbers
from the block list. For example, you can block the 1800 area code but exclude the number 18005559377.

NOTE
Call Blocking is effective for all your Virtual Office phone numbers.

Figure 71. Call Block management

A message can be played online without the need to download it. Click on the 'Play' button next to the needed message.

Figure 3. The 'Play' button

Dial-by-Name Directory

Dial-by-Name directory is a convenient way of reaching a person without knowing
their extension number. New extensions are added to the directory automatically.
You should only define the extension first name and last name in the extension
settings.

Figure 66. Dial-by-Name Directory

The caller can dial and then use their touchtone keypad to dial the first three
letters of the extension last name. For example, for the last name "Doe" the caller
should dial . 

To make the extension available via Dial Directory, enable it in the Extension 8
settings as it is shown in Figure 66 above. 

In summary, if your Virtual Phone number is configured to play the main greeting,
and the caller reaches it and dials 8, they can reach the extension user if they
spell the user's last name via their touchtone keypad.

Greetings

Virtual Office enables the use of several greeting types: 

• Main Greeting (is played during business hours) 

• After hours greeting (is played when the IVR is not active) 

Main greeting can be uploaded or recorded. The file should be in MP3 or WAV
format. Maximum file size is 2 Mb. 

To record a new greeting, you should have a microphone connected to the
computer. Your browser must be HTML 5 compatible or have the latest Adobe
Flash Player™ installed. 

By default, IVR is always active. It is possible to define the needed active period.

Figure 1.Virtual Office Main Menu  

Menu Greetings

You can configure a few prompt types for each menu: 

Intro: A welcome message which plays right after the caller reaches the menu.
During your call it is played only once. 

Menu: A greeting which enumerates all available menu options (e.g., 'Press 1 for sales, press 2 for technical support'). When it is being played, the system expects
to receive input from the caller. If it is not provided, the menu prompt is repeated
two more times. 

Timeout: If the system did not receive any input while the menu prompt was
being played - the timeout prompt is played.

Figure 59. Menu greetings

After this, the 'Menu' greeting will be played, listing all the available options (e.g.,
'Press 1 for sales, press 2 for technical support'), and the auto attendant will
collect the digits dialed by the caller.

If no input is received (timeout), the 'Timeout' action is performed. If the 'Timeout'
option has not been configured beforehand, the system plays the greeting about a
missing input and takes the caller to the previous step (i.e., plays the 'Menu' greeting and collects the input). 

The caller's input will match the corresponding menu option action to be performed. There are four actions you can configure for each menu option (please refer to Figure 60): 

• Disabled: the 'Disabled' action informs the caller that the selection is
  unavailable and plays the 'Menu' greeting. 

• Transfer: choose the extension to transfer calls to. 

• Voicemail: choose this action to send calls to a voicemail box. 

• Menu: choose another menu to forward calls to.

Figure 60. Possible actions for a menu event (event 2 in this case)

Adding a New Menu
In the 'Menus' window, you can add a new menu, such as greetings in different
languages, e.g., English and Spanish. The configuration steps in this case will be: 

1. Click on 'Add Menu', define its 'Name' and 'Period' (Figure 61, the menu
   'Spanish Working Hours').

Figure 61. Add a new menu

2. Click on 'Edit' next to this newly created menu. 

3. Click on 'Greetings' to upload the Spanish greetings (see Figure 59). 

4. Click on 'Edit' next to the needed event to configure events. 

5. Make sure to click on 'Save' under the menu name. 

6. Repeat the same steps to add the 'English Working Hours' menu. 

7. Click on 'Edit' next to the 'ROOT' menu.

8. Upload the 'Menu' greeting which will prompt the callers to choose the
   preferred language ("Press 1 to proceed in English, press 2 for Spanish"). 

9. Click on 'Edit' next to event 1 and set its action to 'Menu English Working
   Hours'. 

10. Click on 'Edit' next to event 2 and set its action to 'Menu Spanish Working
    Hours'. 

11. Make sure other events (except for 'Fax') are set to 'Disabled'.

Send Extension Details

You can send an extension SIP registration details and a QR code via email to
users without access to the Virtual Office portal. 

If the 'SIP Phone' extra is enabled, you will see the 'Send extension details' button
next to the QR code.

Figure 64. Send extension details

Once clicked, a new modal window will appear where by default an email address
of the extension is specified. It can be modified if needed. In addition, the window
will show you a text area which is the body of the email to be sent.

Figure 65. 'To' and 'Body' of the 'Send extension details' email

The values between square brackets (e.g., [extension:id]) are tokens and will be
replaced by actual values like an extension ID, extension name, account ID, service password. They should not be adjusted unless you wish to remove any of them or move them to a different place in the text.

Extensions

An extension is normally a short 1-3 digits internal number which can be used to
receive/make calls, receive voicemails, forward them to other internal numbers
(extensions), or external numbers.

Virtual Office introduces two extension types: 

• Department extension 

• Employee extension 

A department extension can be used to initiate a call to a group of numbers. For
example, the caller hears a welcome message 'Welcome to our company. Press 1
for Sales, press 2 for Support'. When the caller makes a selection (e.g. Enters 1),
the call can be forwarded to a group of up to 5 phone numbers that can start ring
simultaneously (these settings are configurable). 

An employee extension is usually a three-digit number used to call an individual employee’s phone.

Extensions Configuration
Please follow the steps below to begin configuring extensions. It is a more
detailed version of the steps from the Account Activation Checklist.   

Step 1: Create a new employee extension 

1.1 Go to the 'Extensions' page. 

1.2 Click on the 'Add Extension' button in the 'Employee Extensions' section. 

A new extension will be added. By default, if it is the first employee extension, its
number will be 700.

Figure 8.Add a new employee extension

NOTE 

To change an extension ID, go to the extension settings (the 'Edit' button next to
the extension), and choose the desired value from the 'Extension #' list in the
'General Information' section. If neither of the listed values fits, you can use the
'Custom' option. Please refer to Figure 9 below.

Figure 9.Change an extension ID

Step 2: Make sure the 'Forward Calls' option is enabled for this extension 

2.1 Click on 'Edit' next to the extension. 

2.2 In the 'General Information' section, enable the 'Forward Calls' option. 

2.3 Specify the 'Last Name' value for the extension.  This is mandatory. 

2.4 Click on 'Save & Close'.

Figure 10.Enable the 'Forward calls' option

Step 3: Add a forwarding number (or multiple forwarding numbers) 

3.1 Click on 'Edit' next to the extension. 

3.2 In the 'Forwarding Extensions & Numbers' section, click on 'Add a forwarding number'.

Figure 11.The 'Add a forwarding number' button

3.3  In  the  'Add  forwarding  number'  window,  add  a  number  where  calls  to  this extension will be forwarded to, for example your cell phone number.

Figure 12.Add a forwarding number

3.4 Choose the order in which forwarding numbers will ring (the option 'How would you like your calls to forward?' in the 'Forwarding Extensions & Numbers' section). The following values are possible: 

∙ In order one by one
∙ In random order one by one
∙ All numbers simultaneously

NOTE: The  value  'All  numbers  simultaneously'  will  appear  in  the  list  if  you enable the extra feature 'Simultaneous Ringing' in Settings ⇨ Extras. If  you  use  the  option  'In  order  one  by  one',  you  can  re-order  the  forwarding numbers by  clicking on the  're-order' icon next to the  'Add a forwarding number' button. This will invoke a new modal window where you can drag the numbers to make them take the needed position.

Figure 13.Reorder icon

Figure 14.Reorder window

Step 4: Configure the forwarding number

4.1 Click on 'Edit' next to the forwarding number.

Figure 15.Configure 'Display Number Prefix' and 'Display Name Prefix'

'Display Number Prefix' and 'Display Name Prefix' are useful when you have
multiple extensions forwarding calls to the same number and need to know from
which extension the call was delivered to this number.

For instance, your extensions 1 and 2 forward calls to your cell phone, and your
main greeting plays ‘Press 1 for Sales, press 2 for Support'. When you receive
calls, it would be helpful to know from which extension the call is forwarded. In
this case, you can specify '11' as the display number prefix in the forwarding
number settings of extension 1, and '22' as the display number prefix in the
forwarding number settings of extension 2 accordingly. Now when the caller
1777555555 calls your Virtual Office phone number and chooses option 2, you will
see the caller's number as 221777555555 on your phone.

'Display Name Prefix' can be used for the above described scenario as well.

4.2 Choose 'Forwarding number schedule' from the drop-down list: 

∙ 24/7
∙ M-F, 9-5
∙ Sat & Sun, 9-5
∙ Custom Schedule

4.3 Specify 'Forwarding Options': 

∙ Calls will connect to you as soon as you pick up.
∙ Calls will be announced when you pick up: the call will not be picked up at
once, the IVR will announce if you would like to accept, reject, or send the
call to voicemail.

Figure 16. Forwarding number schedule and forwarding options

Step 5: Configure voicemail options 

5.1 Click on 'Edit' next to the extension. 

5.2 In the 'General Information' section, enable 'Voicemail'.

Figure 17. Enable voicemail

5.3 In the section 'Where do you want voicemail emailed to', choose How would
you like your messages to send? 

∙ None: the message will be kept in the local inbox, no notification will be 
sent to a remote email address.
∙ Forward: the message will be deleted from the local inbox and sent to a
remote email address.
∙ Notify: the message will be kept in the local inbox, a notification will be
sent to a remote email address.
∙ Copy: the message will be forwarded to a remote email address, a copy of
the message will be kept in the local inbox.

5.4 Define an email address where 'Messages will be sent as attachments to'.

Figure 18. Where do you want voicemail emailed to?

5.5 Click on 'New greeting' in the 'Voicemail greeting' section to record or upload an audio file for your voicemail greeting. You can upload a recording using MP3 or WAV files. The maximum file size is 2Mb.       

Figure 19. The 'New greeting' button

Step 6: Enable call announcement for a forwarding number (optional)

6.1 Click on the 'Unannounced' link under the extension next to the needed
forwarding number.

Figure 20.Unannounced link
With this option turned on, calls forwarded to the 'Announced' number will be
announced, that is, you will be able to choose an action for an incoming call:
accept, reject, or send to voicemail.

NOTE
You can make use of the 'SIP Phone' feature to register an extension on an IP
phone or softphone. More details about this feature may be found in the SIP
Phone section of this guide.

Configuring Phone Numbers

A phone number in Virtual Office is not directly associated with a phone line in
contrast to a traditional telephone number which is associated with a single line at a specific location.

A Virtual Office phone number can be programmed to route incoming calls to an
extension or to play the main greeting, your auto attendant. The auto attendant acts as an automated receptionist. Callers hear recordings that prompt them to choose a menu option. 

The auto attendant allows forwarding calls to extensions, dial by name in the company directory, and set up caller options during hours your business is closed.

Step 1: Purchase a new phone number if Phone Number is not assigned during online sign-up OR if you need additional phone number

1.1 Go to Settings ⇨ Phone Numbers. 

1.2 Click on 'Add Number'. 

1.3 Choose a number.

Figure 21. The ‘Add Number’ modal

Step 2: Configure the main greeting and the after-hours greetings

By default, a phone number is configured to play the main greeting. When callers
dial your number, an auto attendant will instruct them which menu option to choose to reach a specific extension.

Options 0 and 8 transfer calls to extensions 0 and 8 accordingly. These extensions are created by Virtual Office during the initial setup, and cannot be deleted. Extension 0 is used as the main ‘CEO’ extension, it inherits your main number (default redirect number) that was used during signing up. Extension 8 is used for Dial by Name directory. Please refer to the ‘Dial by Name Directory’ section for more details.

Other numeric options, namely, from 1 to 7 and 9, are disabled by default. When
you create department extensions, they will be assigned to these options.

Your main greeting can include a welcome message and instructions like ‘Press 1
for Sales, press 2 for Support’. When the caller presses 2, they are redirected to a
department extension 2.

2.1 Go to Settings ⇨ Greetings.

Figure 22. Settings ⇨ Greetings

2.2 Click on 'New greeting'.
           
      Figure 23. New greeting

2.3 Upload an audio file for your greeting file by clicking on 'Upload file' or click on 'Record' to record a new greeting.

Figure 24.Upload or record a greeting

 NOTE - The uploaded or recorded greeting gets enabled automatically

2.4 Under the 'New greeting' button, choose 'Options after greeting' (what
should be done if there is no input after your greeting has played):
∙ Repeat greeting (default)
∙ Transfer to extension

Figure 25. Options after greeting

2.5 Define business hours during which your main greeting will be active:
∙ 24/7
∙ M-F, 9-5
∙ Sat & Sun, 9-5
∙ Custom Schedule
 

Figure 26. Business hours schedule

When the main greeting is not active, the 'After-hours greeting' will be played. By
analogy with the main greeting configuration, you can upload or record an after-
hours greeting and define options after greeting.

Figure 27.After-hours greeting

Step 3: Configure a phone number

3.1 Go to Settings ⇨ Phone Numbers.

Figure 28.Settings ⇨ Phone Numbers

3.2 Click on 'Edit' next to the number.

Figure 29. Edit a phone number

3.3 Choose 'Caller ID Display': 

• Caller's Number: you will see the caller's number on your phone screen for incoming calls. 

• Virtual Office Number: your Virtual Office phone number will be displayed on the screen so you can see which one of your numbers the caller dialed. It may be useful when you have multiple numbers in different areas and need to know where the caller calls you from.
  
  

Step 4: Configure fax options for your phone number 

If the system detects that a fax is being sent to your phone number, instead of
playing an audio greeting, the fax will be sent to your voicemail inbox. Below you
will find the steps on how to configure phone number options related to fax. 

4.1 Go to Settings ⇨ Phone Numbers.
4.2 Click on 'Edit' next to the number. 

Figure 30. Phone number options

4.3 Choose 'Notification Action': 

• None: no notification about faxes will be sent to the specified email
  address. 

• Forward: all the fax documents you receive will be forwarded to the
  specified email address. 

• Notify: the notification about the received fax will be sent to the specified
  email address. 

• Copy: you will get a copy of the received fax documents.
  
  

4.4 Specify 'Notification Email'.

4.5 Specify the format of 'Fax File': 

• a single PDF or TIFF file; 

• one PNG or TIFF file per page. 

Figure 31. Download fax

Other Options: 

• Time Zone: choose the time zone in which the phone number will operate.
  That is, the schedule of the main and after-hours greetings will work according to this time zone. 

• Tag: if you have multiple phone numbers, a tag can be used to filter the
  incoming calls list. For instance, numbers X and Y are tagged as 'main',
  the other two numbers have the tag 'area'. You can use the tag on the
  'Inbound Calls' page to find calls to phone numbers tagged as 'main'.

When the room is added it will be assigned an extension number and will appear in the Other Extensions section (Figure 51). Any Virtual Office extension user can dial the conference room number internally or your Virtual Office phone number can be forwarded to the conference extension (see Figure 52).

You can invite participants to join the conference meeting by sending an invitation. Please click on 'Invite' next to the conference room (see Figure 50 above). You should specify the following information: 

• Sender Email: an email address which will be seen as 'From', it is not mandatory to specify the existing address if you do not expect any
  response. For instance, it can be 'no-reply@example.com'. 

• Recipients Emails: to whom the invitation will be sent. 

• Dial-In Numbers: if you configured one of your Virtual Office phone
  numbers to transfer calls to a conference extension, select it from this
  drop-down list. It is mandatory if you invite users who are not your Virtual
  Office members (see Figure 53 below). 

• Message: the invitation text.

• Tokens: you can use tokens inside your message, they will be replaced
  with actual data (see Figure 53 below).

Number Extra Settings
Every Virtual Office phone number (Settings ⇨ Phone Numbers) can have one of
three modes: 

• Play my Main Greeting: when the number is called, the caller will hear the
  recorded IVR greeting and will select an extension to call. 

• Transfer to Extension: the call will be transferred directly to the selected
  extension. 

• Custom Configuration: This enables a full featured Auto Attendant. 

To make the 'Custom Configuration' option available in the phone number
settings, please go to Settings ⇨ Extras and enable 'Number Extra Settings'.

Figure 54. Enable 'Number Extra Settings'

Once done, you will see the option 'Custom Configuration' in the phone number
settings (Settings ⇨ Phone Numbers ⇨ Edit) as it is shown in Figure 55 below:

Figure 55. Enable 'Custom Configuration' in the number settings

When you are done with enabling this feature, you can follow the steps below to
configure an auto attendant for your phone number: 

1. Click on 'Settings' next to the phone number, the 'Menus' window will open
   (please refer to Figure 56 below).

Figure 56. Custom Configuration settings

By default, two menus are pre-created: ROOT and After Hours. The ROOT menu is always active, meaning callers can reach it at any time. If you need to define different settings for after business hours, you can perform the following steps:

2. Click on 'Edit' next to the needed menu (we will modify ROOT in our
   example). 

3. Find the action 'Not Active', click on 'Edit', choose 'Menu After Hours' from
   the 'Action' drop-down list and save the changes (Figure 57)

Figure 57. Configure the 'Not Active' action

The 'Not Active' action gets activated when the ROOT menu is offline. Now, our
ROOT menu is always active, let us define a business hours schedule for it:

4. Choose the appropriate value from the 'Period' drop-down list or use the
   'Custom Schedule' option to define your own period (Figure 58). The possible
   values are:

• 24/7 

• M-F, 9-5

• Sat & Sun, 9-5

• Always Not Active

• Custom Schedule

Figure 58. Change the ROOT menu period

5. Click on 'Save' in the 'ROOT' section (Figure 58).
   
   

Now make sure to configure the 'After Hours' menu by adjusting its options and
uploading the needed greetings. The following options are available in each menu
(they correspond to available keys on the phone dial pad): 

• Not Active: if the current menu is not active. 

• 0-9, #, *: the user selection on a phone dial pad. 

• Timeout: no selection received from the user.

NOTE
The 'Fax' option defaults to 'Voicemail', and it must not be modified.
