The cloud phone system that offers your business more.

A cloud telephone system is a software-based business telephony solution that is hosted in the provider’s Data Centre. Sometimes referred to as a Hosted PBX (Private Branch Exchange), a cloud phone system combines all the telephony functions of a traditional PBX with modern team collaboration tools and makes them available via the internet using VoIP (Voice over IP) and SIP (Session Initiation Protocol) technologies.

Cloud phone systems are often referred to as virtual phone systems, so much so that the two terms are now almost synonymous with each other. From the customer’s perspective, cloud and virtual phone systems are pretty much the same because a cloud phone system is not something physical and therefore must be virtual. However, in terms of the technology, there is a difference, namely how and where each type of PBX is deployed; a cloud phone system is hosted within the phone system provider’s cloud infrastructure and is usually available to the customer within a matter of minutes, saving time and hassle. Virtual phone systems are deployed in a virtualised environment, which can be either on-premise or in a data centre. Such a deployment takes longer to set up as the process will often not be fully automated and ongoing maintenance will likely be more labour-intensive as Managed Services are often not included for virtual phone systems.

As all your communication and messaging tools are hosted in the Cloud and made available via the Internet, cloud phone systems do not require any additional onsite hardware other than what’s required for your Internet connection. Analogue phone lines are also not required, as calls are routed via VoIP, so all you need to start calling, messaging and conferencing is an Internet connection and our apps installed on your smartphone, tablet, and/or laptop. To ensure greater comfort and higher call quality, we also recommend using an approved business headset.
