NextGen voicemail integrates with popular messaging services, such as the Ring Ring or enco.io SMS service, as well as WhatsApp via the Meta cloud, or Telesign API.
Handle callback requests and structure voicemail messages
Define your own email templates, and deliver voicemails or callback requests to any email address, including MS Teams Channels. As voicemails can be automatically transcribed, they can be automatically processed, and users don’t need to listen to them in order to process them further.

Instead of recording a single message, you can even record a structured conversation, guiding the caller through multiple questions, and record respective answers into a single recording (with transcript). Easily gather customer surveys, automate trouble ticket intake, or create a ‘speech form’, as if it were a form on your website.
