Viewing Zoom Phone Team SMS historical reports
When Team SMS is enabled by an admin, phone users can send and receive SMS messages using phone numbers linked to call queues or auto receptionists. This feature lets teams manage group SMS conversations, reply to messages without overlap from other members, transfer threads to share missed information, and release conversations so other members can respond.
Team SMS historical reports provide insights into how your team handles these conversations over time. Team SMS historical reports give a comprehensive view of how teams manage SMS conversations, tracking message distribution, response speed, and overall activity. These reports capture metrics such as total and per‑agent SMS volume, timing of first replies, and conversation handling efficiency, including details on released messages and average performance per completed conversation. These reports help admins and supervisors evaluate responsiveness, workload distribution, and overall efficiency in managing SMS interactions.
Note: Team SMS only applies to SMS conversations from auto-receptionist or call queue phone numbers, and it requires a Power Pack license. Learn more about using SMS with call queues or auto receptionists (Team SMS) and Team SMS thread summary with AI Companion.
