Who rings when a customer calls

1 min read · Updated 24 September 2026

When a customer calls your business number, Ansa rings a group of people at once. Whoever picks up first takes the call, and everyone else's phone stops ringing.

Change who rings

  1. In the dashboard, open Ring groups.
  2. Choose a group, then add or remove people.
  3. Set how long it rings before giving up, and what happens then — usually voicemail.

Every phone, every device

If someone has Ansa on two phones, both ring. It works when the app is closed and the phone is locked, just like a normal call.

If nobody answers

After the time you set, the caller goes to the next step you chose — usually voicemail — so a call is never left ringing forever.
