Once you’re signed in, you will see the My Halloo summary page for your extension. This lets you see at glance the number of new and saved messages waiting for you. Links to pages related to your own extension such as messages for voice mail, contacts for your personal addresses and phone numbers, call log, and user settings are also on this page.

The User Settings tab is where you will configure settings for your own extension, including your email and SMS text alert options, forwarding telephone numbers, voice mail greeting, and scheduled follow me options.

At the top of this and every page is the Call Control Panel, which allows you to update your Find Me, Follow Me setting, and make outgoing phone calls through Halloo. If you are part of a hunt group, you can also choose to accept or block calls from the group using this panel.

If you are an administrator, you can change user settings for any extension in your account. Just click the desired extension to begin managing these features. Non‑administrators have more restricted access, to prevent accidental or unauthorized changes to the account.

Every extension needs a unique name, and an extension number associated with it. Extensions can be assigned to users, auto attendants, fax inboxes, ACD queues, or meet me conferences.
