Business phone system (PBX)

Sound like an established brand from the first ring, without buying a separate phone product. A full business phone system is built in: extensions, ring groups and ACD, time-based routing with failover, an IVR phone-menu builder, granular voicemail boxes and blind or warm call transfer. Calls land next to the same customer's texts and emails, so whoever answers already knows the history — and no caller gets bounced around or forgotten.

Why it matters for your business

This is the phone power big brands pay for, built into the same inbox as your texts: extensions, IVR 'press-1' menus, ring groups, business-hours routing, voicemail and transfer. Whoever answers already sees the caller's full conversation history, so calls stop being cold. And every call can be recorded, transcribed and summarized — turning voice into data on the contact.

Questions & answers

Is the phone system really included, not an add-on?

The PBX — extensions, IVR, ring groups, routing, voicemail and transfer — is part of the platform. Extra lines, toll-free and vanity numbers and call recording are the priced add-ons.
