RingCentral Transition Going Smoothly: What We've Learned So Far & Important Reminders

Starting tomorrow, July 30, we will be halfway through our RingCentral rollout. So far, the transition is going smoothly! Many teams are using RingCentral as their new phone platform, and we’ve already gathered a few helpful insights:

  • No changes for clients or call flow. For those who answered calls through Fuze, it’s business as usual just with a new platform behind the scenes.
  • You must manually extract your contacts from Fuze. If you saved contacts in Fuze, they won’t carry over automatically. Be sure to manually extract them before your Go Live date and import them into RingCentral to avoid losing important numbers.
Important Reminders
  • Your account won’t activate until your Go Live date. You may see some setup options ahead of time, but you won’t be fully functional until the official launch day for your team. Additionally, client calls will remain routed to Fuze until your Go Live date. 
  • RingCentral does not replace Microsoft Teams. You’ll still use Teams for chat, meetings, and collaboration. RingCentral is strictly your new phone and voicemail platform.
More updates and tips to come as we continue the rollout. Thanks to everyone for your adaptability and feedback!

PEOPLE

2025 Tobacco Cessation: Start Your Journey to Quitting TODAY!

As part of our commitment to the care and concern for the physical wellbeing of our employees, their families and our customers, National Seating and Mobility remains focused on providing a safe and healthy workplace that includes initiatives aimed at reducing tobacco use of our employees. Tobacco use is not only life threatening, treatment of the associated diseases increases Medical, Dental, Disability and Life insurance costs for NSM and our employees. To support you in quitting use of tobacco, NSM has partnered with BCBS to offer free tobacco cessation coaching programs.

In addition, to help offset the excess costs associated with tobacco use, employees who are tobacco users and enrolled in any of our medical plans will pay a $30.00 per month tobacco surcharge beginning January 1, 2026. Tobacco use is defined as smoking (including: cigarettes, pipes, cigars, ecigarettes, vaping and/or any other types of smoking devices or products) and use of smokeless tobacco (including: chew, dip, snuff and/or any other type of smokeless tobacco.) If you are not tobacco free at this time, you can avoid the surcharge by completing one of the tobacco cessation programs by October 22, 2025.
