Zendesk After-Hours Call Greeting
What greeting do callers hear if no after-hours routing is set in Zendesk?
If neither overflow routing nor voicemail is enabled in Zendesk, callers will hear the voicemail off greeting when they call outside of business hours. This message informs them that the line is currently unavailable and no voicemail can be left.
For more details on configuring greetings, see the originalZendesk article.
