Cloud PBX offers businesses with a flexible and scalable solution for managing their inbound and outbound communications. With VoIP enabled PBX handsets, businesses can take advantage of voice over internet technology to eliminate the need for physical hardware and infrastructure to support communications, as the entire system is hosted and maintained in the cloud. As a result of this businesses can easily add or remove phone lines, extensions, and features as their needs change and they expand, without the hassle of purchasing and installing new equipment.
Cloud enabled PBX phone system handsets also provide a range of advanced features such as auto-attendant, call routing, voicemail, and call analytics, to enhance your call management capabilities and improve customer service. The cloud-based nature of the system allows employees to access their phone system from anywhere with an internet connection, then switch back to their desk phone when they are in the office, enabling remote working and increasing the flexibility of your workforce.

Frequently asked questions
What are the main functions of an on-premise telephone system?
An on-premise PBX phone system provides businesses with the functionality and call management features required to manage multiple inbound and outbound calls simultaneously. Which isn’t of course possible if using a residential landline or business mobile phone. Call routing, individual extension numbers, auto attendant and so on are all common call management features available with an on premise phone system.
What is a PBX phone system?
A PBX (Private Branch Exchange) system is used to manage internal and external phone calls within a business. It allows employees to communicate with each other and handle incoming and outgoing calls through a single phone line, offering features like call routing, voicemail, and conferencing.
Is PBX better than VoIP?
PBX is ideal for businesses needing a reliable, on-premises phone system. VoIP is more flexible, cost-effective, and suited for remote work, offering advanced features. VoIP is typically better for most modern businesses.
How does an on-premise phone system work?
An on-premise phone system can be analogue, digital or cloud-hosted. The traditional analogue phone system uses PSTN (public switched telephone network) lines, whilst a digital solution uses an internet connection. A cloud phone system uses internet based software which is based and maintained in the cloud, rather than using a server.
What is the difference between hosted cloud and on-premise?
The main difference between a hosted cloud phone system and an on-premise phone system is who owns and manages the phone system hardware and software. With on-premise PBX, you will own, manage and maintain the system. With a hosted solution, it is owned and managed by the provider and it will be managed in the cloud and connected to your team entirely over the internet.
How does a PBX phone system work?
A PBX allows companies to communicate over channels like VoIP, ISDN or analog. A PBX also allows you to have more phones than physical phone lines.
