Setup questions
Before you start.The answers.
How long does setup take?
It depends on how much you want to customize. A template gives you a working starting point, and you can refine the answers over time.
Do I have to change my phone number?
No. You can forward your existing business number to Ravola, or use the number included with your plan.
Can I control when calls are transferred to me?
Yes. You set transfer numbers, business hours and the situations where a caller should reach a person.
What if it doesn't know the answer?
It takes a message with the caller's details and creates a follow-up for your team instead of guessing.
Can I change things after going live?
Yes. Edit answers, hours and flows at any time. Draft changes don't affect live calls until you publish them.
