Benefits of a Horizon add-on

ISDN replacement

Openreach are busy replacing the copper-based Public Switched Telephone Network (PSTN) with fibre optic connections across the UK, so all traditional lines – such as ISDN - will soon be a thing of the past. A VoIP business phone system such as Horizon means you’re ready for an all-digital future.

Online portal

The easy-to-use cloud-based, online interface delivers call analytics data and information on the performance of your business. And because it’s cloud-based, you can access the call reporting interface from wherever you are.

Enhanced SIP services

Enhanced SIP services - delivering unified communications - can transform how your employees and your customers connect across your business. Greater productivity, effective collaboration, quicker decision making and improved levels of customer service will take your business communications strategy to the next level.
