What is Enhanced Voicemail?
Enhanced Voicemail (also referred to as Enterprise Voicemail) is a treatment that gives the caller an option to try a different extension before prompting them to leave a message.
Call Flow with Enhanced Voicemail
- The caller dials a DID or extension number
- The caller hears the called party's voicemail greeting
- The caller hears "To dial another extension press 1, to leave a voicemail press 2 or simply stay on the line" (at this point, the caller can also dial 0 to reach the Operator extension).
- If option 2 is chosen, the caller hears "Please leave a message after the tone".
Call Flow with Enhanced Voicemail Disabled
- The caller dials a DID or extension number
- The caller hears "Your call is being forwarded please hold"
- The caller hears the called party's voicemail greeting
- The caller hears "Please leave a message after the tone".

Voicemail Issues
Voicemail Hyperlink does not work
If you are using the Voicemail Hyperlink and the link opens to an error webpage; it is likely because the Voicemail has already been deleted from the user's mailbox. It is recommended to check the voicemail box to make sure the voicemail is still New or Saved.
