What is a Hunt Group in the IPO Platform?

A Hunt Group in the IPO Platform refers to a configuration that allows a group of extensions to collectively manage incoming calls based on specific predefined rules. When a call is directed to the Hunt Group, the system will route the call to one of the extensions within that group according to the established settings, which can include strategies like ringing all phones simultaneously or sequentially, depending on the configuration.

This capability is particularly useful in organizational contexts where multiple users need to handle incoming calls, such as in customer service or support teams. The ability to set these predefined rules enables efficient call distribution, improving response times and ensuring that calls are answered by available personnel.

The other options do not accurately describe a Hunt Group's purpose. For instance, a specific extension for receiving all calls more closely resembles a standard point of termination for incoming calls rather than a group of extensions. Similarly, features focused on outgoing call management or tracking missed calls do not pertain to the primary function of a Hunt Group, which is centered around managing the flow of incoming calls to a collective of users.
