Adding voicemail greetings to non-personal extensions can be done either on your own or by the help of IT. For doing it yourself see these directions, https://support.vonage.com/articles/answer/Change-Voicemail-Greeting-9809 .

For IT to assist you we have created a procedure to upload your greetings. Personal extensions can also take advantage of this, but we recommend you try the desktop app first.

You will need to record the greeting by following the steps below. Then IT will upload your recording to your department’s number or personal extension.

If using this for a personal extension setup, please see this as an exception not the norm. IT will not be able to upload in a timely manner personal greetings for everyone. Especially the Out of Office greetings which can change for each holiday or vacation the person is out of the office.
