The Ringio web dashboard is an easy, simple-to-use web interface to allow you, the Ringio administrator for your company, to manage to configure users, departments, greeting and routing, and more in real-time.  It takes literally just minutes to set up Ringio to route calls the way you like it, so we encourage you to immerse yourself with the concepts presented on this page.

 

Individual users within your company won't be logging into this web dashboard.  Instead, they will be using the Ringio application on a daily basis and should download and install the application to their computer.  Click here for information on configuring and using the Ringio application for more effective calls.
