What is Cloud PBX and How Does it Work?

Getting a phone system can be a daunting process for small businesses, especially it comes to costs of setting up an on-premise PBX system. But with modern technology such as Cloud PBX, setting up a phone system is now more affordable than ever.

What is Cloud PBX?

Cloud PBX is a business phone service delivered over a broadband connection. Unlike traditional telephone systems which are installed at the business premises, the entire PBX system is delivered and managed from a secure Australian based data centre and accessed entirely through the internet. A cloud PBX system can be a great alternative to traditional office phones as they are easy to install, cheaper to run, and don’t require as much maintenance.

How Does a Cloud PBX System Work?

A cloud PBX system uses an internet connection to make calls over the cloud by connecting to your VoIP device or an office phone to a broadband connection. The system is plug and play, so you can start making calls immediately. With the addition of a softphone app, you can connect to the system with your smartphone or laptop from anywhere in the world.

Benefits of a PBX System

• As calls are made over the internet, calls can be made remotely which allows employees working from home to access the system.
• Cloud PBX systems are a lot cheaper than traditional systems due to the low setup costs and minimal maintenance.
• It’s easy to add or remove lines when required without many configurations needed. 
• Cloud PBX systems are easier than ever to connect, as long as your business has a reliable internet, the phones are plug and play.
