Screen pop
The call arrives with the customer, job or claim already on screen.
We deploy and run self-hosted VoIP on Asterisk and FreePBX — and because we are a software firm first, we connect it to the systems your business already runs on.

Routing driven by data in your system, not just by menu tree.
Recording and CDR data pulled into your own reporting and dashboards.
Queue and representative performance measured against business outcomes, not just talk time.
Asterisk and FreePBX are open-source platforms. We architect, deploy, secure, trunk, configure and operate them, and we write the software that talks to them — we did not write the PBX itself.
No per-seat licensing, no vendor lock-in on your call data, and recordings and CDRs that live on infrastructure you control.
For businesses in regulated or claims-driven work, that last point is usually the deciding one.

Nearly every bad VoIP experience traces back to the network rather than the carrier. We would rather find that before you buy a phone system than after.
Upstream capacity, jitter and packet loss under real load — not at 6am. A perfect PBX on a saturated link is still a bad phone system.
Whether traffic prioritisation exists and whether the switching can carry voice alongside everything else. Consumer equipment is the usual culprit.
Including what happens out of hours, at holidays, and when the person a call is routed to does not pick up.
Where calls go when the connection drops. Decided in advance, because the default behaviour of most systems is to stop answering.
Yes, given a sane network. The failures people remember are almost always local — a saturated upstream link, consumer-grade equipment, or no traffic prioritisation — rather than the carrier. We look at the connection before quoting the phone system, because a perfect PBX on a bad link is still a bad phone system.
Yes. Porting is routine and we manage it, including the parts that go wrong: the losing carrier disputing details, and the window where calls could split across two systems. Numbers stay live throughout — we do not cut over and hope.
Calls fail over to mobiles or an alternate route, configured in advance. This is worth deciding before you need it, because the default behaviour of most systems is simply to stop answering, and the first time you discover that should not be during an outage.
Either. We deploy and operate FreePBX and Asterisk on infrastructure we manage, or we configure a hosted platform and integrate it with your systems. The deciding factors are usually call volume, how unusual your routing is, and whether recordings need to stay somewhere specific.
That is normally the point. Click-to-dial, screen pop on inbound, automatic call logging against the customer record and recordings attached to the right account are all achievable, and they are what separate a phone system from a phone.
We run this stack ourselves. Let’s talk about running it for you.
