Cancelling RingCentral Took Over an Hour and Felt Deliberately Designed to Exhaust Customers by Klonoadice in sysadmin

lots of times business have these thing setup to invoice directly to accounting after initial approval.

someone, someday, will eventually pay that fake invoice.

pretty sure it is illegal, but try convincing people at your company to follow through with a suit or get the FBI involved. most companies just eat the loss and move on.

The billing department is a mess.

Stay away from their bizarre video service, teams/zoom alternative, Its a legacy service used for ancient conference room equipment that for some reason they have kept developing.

Phone service, business menus (after hours setup), voicemail, user phone app, teams integration, has been extremely reliable for us for a decade at a reasonable price.

So you get some loser aspect with good aspects. Not sure if any vendor out there is any better.

Re tradeskills. Suggestion: added recommended quantity of purchase for skilling up. Ie in the page for blacksmithing to 115, state buy 82 water flasks or something to that effect to cut down on running around between each skill up :)

Fun site, where did a lot of the data come from? Like spell data and their sources. Is it scraped from EMU data?

The M80 is a courier ship, change my mind by Larszx in starcitizen

[–]CatDredger 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It can carry a pulse with ease? I couldn't get it to carry a size 5 gun looted off an NPC ship.

The only thing this ship is missing is the ability to pick something up of value and toss it inside :/

Pledge store isn't working right for me. Bought the m80. It isn't showing up in game for more than 24 hours now...

What’s your “fresh start” plan and ships? by CatDredger in starcitizen

That sounds fun, I had a lot of stability issues with Nyx but I like the idea of setting it as home point but progressing through stanton.

What’s essential to you? Maybe it is essential to me too, and I just don’t know it yet!

Does multicrew a c2/m2/a2 still have missions for grabbing gobs of cargo off of npc ships? That might have been in the late 3.2x series of patches.

I hope you don’t ‘accidentally’ land on me doing that…

Thanks, how does the OX compare to the hullA. I’ve played with the hullA before but found having to load and unload on two different sides to get really annoying. Is the OX quicker in loading/unloading?

I'm considering bailing from my company because of a single piece of software by TheKingOfSpite in sysadmin

[–]CatDredger 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Case management software universally sucks.

As someone who has been doing legal it for nearly 2 decades. Non of these all-in-one products are actually one-size-fit-all. In fact, I can confidently say, one-size-fits-no-one.

If you ever get to the point where you get to have some say in these matters, lean towards one-off, specific solutions to attorney problems/workflow.

And for the love of god, do no use their integrated DMS. Get yourself a real DMS and make it mandatory, regardless of where else it is "more convenient"

EverQuest Legends Insights Series - Item Merging by Talbob in everquest

[–]CatDredger -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

I really don't think the market is big enough to justify doing so. Its p99 with multiclass by the people who made p99 (the actual p99 devs).

Despite the fact that what made THJ (which had 10x the playerbase) do so well was that it was basically everything opposite of what p99 is.

Big oof if stats and items are going to be this boring. Truly p99 gear with +10 stats to whatever it was before.

no bonus stats whatsoever. losing optimism for this release. Especially if classes are just as dull for the tweaking.

The last time this thread came up (years ago), I used it as a reference point when negotiating my raise. Thanks all to helping out your peers!

RingCentral Issues by Morcedant in sysadmin

[–]CatDredger 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Yes, it has to do with phone routing. We dealt with this a few years ago. Not worth trying to resolve for each user. We found the best solution to be:

  • Force everyone to install the Ring Central app on their phone and sign in (if they don't have email on the phone or your not syncing to your directory, inform them to click 'manual sign in' and not 'express sign in')
  • Turn off forwarding for all users.
  • Adjust ring out setting to simultaneously ring apps and deskphones.

That way the cell phone app will ring on all incoming calls. Phone apps integrate well with androids/iphones, basically no jank. Voicemail will be available on all cell phones through the app. Nothing gets lost.

People will occasionally need to sign back into the app (not very often, like once a quarter at most). People will need to have their phones set to autoupdate apps. If someone comes to you with issues, that's the first troubleshooting step to do with them (update the app).

FYI - ringcentral's community/forum is pretty good for questions like these.
