What is Hosted iPBX?
Hosted iPBX is a cloud-based phone service which delivers huge cost savings and delivers the features and capabilities of a PBX phone system without the costs associated with having to buy or maintain your own system.
It helps you eliminate up-front capital investment, installation and on-going operating expenses while delivering a huge list of features and functions.
How Does Hosted IPBX Work?
Our Hosted iPBX solutions is very similar to having a normal PABX phone system in your office, except that the features and functions run from our server, in the cloud.
This saves you the cost of buying your own telephone system, and allows us to provide you with all the features and functions you would normally find on the most expensive systems.
In fact, most features are offered free to our clients.
Hosted PBX solutions such as ours use a technology called Voice Over IP (VoIP) to transmit your voice over the Internet, instead of using traditional telephone lines. That means that you can connect one of our Quality Assured VoIP phones to your broadband Internet connection and make and receive calls anywhere. This is a high quality, cost effective alternative to traditional business telephone systems, and immediately reduces your costs by removing expensive line rental charges paid to your Telco.
Private Branch Exchanges (PBX) are notoriously expensive and complicated devices which require expensive add-on cards and a phone technician whenever a change is required. These changes are usually time consuming and costly. However, to reduce your costs and put you back in control, you can call our Help Desk at any time and request changes over the phone. Most changes can be performed while you wait and at no cost. (Some costs may be incurred for major reconfigurations).

Increase customer satisfaction and put an end to phone tag with automatic call routing by department function, employee availability and time of day.
Your customers will be greeted by a custom message asking them to “enter an employee’s extension number” or “press one for sales, two for accounts and three for support”.
The system will then progressively ring employees in a department group until an employee answers.
If a caller rings outside business hours the call will go to a global voicemail box to follow up the next day.

Features

Standard PBX Functions
Make, receive & transfer calls to both internal and external users, with ease, and at incredibly cheap rates. All plans include unlimited calls to landlines and some include unlimited calls to mobile too. Easy to set (or change) caller groups (line hunt), so you choose who’s phone rings and in what sequence, until someone in the group answers.
Simultaneous Ring (Mobile Twinning)
Streamline your work flow by having your mobile and desk phone ring simultaneously. Answer on either handset. Great for when you are out of the office.
Auto Attendant (IVR)
Eliminate or reduce the cost of a receptionist by having your clients automatically queued and directed to the correct department or user. Greet callers with professionally recorded menus asking them to press 1 for sales & 2 for accounts, etc.
Messages On-hold
On Hold Messages are one of the most effective marketing opportunities your business has. You’ve already got your callers’ ears, so why not use the opportunity to educate them about all the wonderful products and services you offer, while they’re on hold.
Night Switch
Automatically route all calls outside of business hours to your after-hours mailbox, or to an alternate phone number. You can choose different routing options for weekdays and weekends.
Voicemail to Email*
When someone leaves a message in your mailbox, we can convert it to an audio file and instantly email it to your designated email address. This feature means you can listen to them at anytime and anywhere, even with a smartphone in the field. Feel free to roam around knowing that any messages left for you will be delivered via email.
Conference Room*
Order a ‘conference room’ for a low set monthly fee which you can use any time of day or night. Simple to use as your conference participants call in to a local number at the scheduled time with only standard call charges applying. No expensive set up charges, or exorbitant call charges.
Keep Out-of-Office Employees Connected
An extra extension can be created for a worker operating from home so they can take calls as if they were in the next office. Those travelling overseas can connect via a hotel wireless connection via their laptop and still be ‘in the office’.
Multiple Extensions per Handset
One employee can answer calls for multiple company entities or departments.
*Charges may apply to the setup and/or use of some of these services, depending on your selected plan
Mobile Twinning Simultaneous Ringing
Never miss a call again when your extension ‘twins’ to your mobile when out of the office.

Why choose our Hosted iPBX? (Next generation Net phone)
Reduce Costs
Business technologies are always evolving. It would be ideal if a business could access the most advanced technologies without having to spend large amounts of money on hardware. Our IP Voice Hosted iPBX makes this possible. In addition you will reduce your ongoing communication expenses significantly with our unbeatable low cost offers.
Scalable with Business Growth
For most businesses, it is difficult to know what is happening next month let alone what is going to happen in five years. It’s why you need a highly flexible technology like our IP Voice Hosted iPBX. Do you need new lines in your current office? Setting up a new interstate branch? It’s as easy as adding a new phone and plugging it into your DSL connection.
Crystal Clear Voice Quality
Our IP Voice offers call quality as good, if not better than traditional phone services (PSTN). Our quality assured program ensures that your set up is 100% compatible with our system. In addition our voice signal pattern is exactly the same as the one used on the copper network. It is by not trying to reinvent the wheel that we deliver crystal clear voice quality.
Feature Rich
Messages/Music on hold, conference calling facilities, call forward to mobile, voicemail to email, twinning to mobile, auto attendant (IVR) and a host of other features to raise your level of professionalism. Most of these functions are free or at a minimal cost, plus we looks after all the set up and changes you may require remotely and instantly.
Premium Brands
Our handsets are from the top IP handset manufacturers in the world, offering quality voice and ease of use. The range starts with basic office models right through to touch sensitive and cordless solutions. All are pre-programmed and ready to go as soon as you plug in to your internet connection.
Easy Installation
Our system is fully pre-configured in house to your exact specification prior to being delivered to you. So it is as simple as plugging it into power and an internet connection and start using it. That’s what we call plug and play.
Reliability
Even if your power and internet go down, incoming calls will be immediately diverted to the alternate phone numbers that you have pre-assigned, which can include other phone lines, other offices or to your mobiles – providing a seamless, secure solution. And because our iPBX platform is mirrored across several servers in Australia and offshore, and routed through multiple IP traffic providers, we ensures a 99.93% uptime.
Currently, over 10,000 organisations are using Vonex iPBX system around the world, which include Toyota, Ray White, RSPCA and Ted’s Camera’s. Others include Auto Masters, Freedom Pools, Wittner Shoes and a number of government agencies.

The Future
It is expected that Voice over IP (or phone calls over the Internet) will in a few short years be the ‘normal’ way calls are made. The Plain Old Telephone System (POTS) running on standard copper will be redundant. With the advent of ADSL2+ in most areas across Australia providing a fast and stable internet platform, now is the time to get connected via IP Voice. The NBN currently being rolled out will make the change even more imperative.
