In plain terms

What is a call queue?

A call queue holds several incoming callers in order until a configured teammate becomes available. Callers can hear a waiting message instead of going straight to voicemail, and each call remains in line until someone answers or the fallback applies. A support desk can use a queue during peak periods, giving a busy team a structured way to handle more than one waiting caller.

Use a queue when several callers may need to wait. Use a ring group when the main goal is to let several teammates share one incoming call.

Queue order and fallbacks

Keep callers in order until someone can answer

The queue keeps incoming calls organized while the available people finish one conversation at a time.

03

The caller needs a fair place in line

The waiting path keeps callers in sequence until a teammate is ready.

Questions, answered

Frequently asked questions

Practical answers about setup, call handling, and how this feature fits into VoxiPlus.

What do waiting callers hear?

They hear the waiting message configured for that queue before the call connects or continues to its fallback.

How long will callers wait?

You set the waiting limit. When it is reached, the call follows the fallback you selected.

Who answers the next queued call?

The queue keeps callers in order and connects the next caller to the first available teammate in that route.

Is a queue the same as a ring group?

No. A ring group gives several people the chance to answer one incoming call. A queue holds several callers until someone is available.

Can a small team use a call queue?

Yes. A queue can help a small team when calls occasionally arrive faster than the available people can answer them.

What happens when the team is closed?

Business-hours routing can bypass the daytime queue and send callers to the closed message, voicemail, or another configured path.
