What is Cloud Telephony?

Cloud telephony provides Internet-based voice communication (VoIP) services, hosted by a third-party provider and accessible to customers directly over the Internet.

What are the advantages of Cloud Telephony?

Cloud telephony systems replace the need for conventional enterprise telephony hardware, such as private branch exchanges (PBX). They can be implemented and maintained more easily and at lower cost. They also offer the flexibility to scale the number of users up and down according to business needs, and to introduce new features.

Easy to use.

The cloud solution is accessed via a web or application-based portal that is integrated into an organisation’s existing IT infrastructure.

Continuous innovation.

Cloud telephony features go above and beyond traditional PBX telephony – including video call functionality, screen sharing, and more.

Access from anywhere.

Users can access the services from virtually anywhere using a smartphone or laptop: whether they are in the office, at home, or on the move.

How secure is the cloud?

Well-established best practices:

Best-in-class cloud infrastructure providers keep their customers’ data secure and ensure uninterrupted service availability. This includes storing data in highly secure, geo-redundant data centres.


High availability at all times:

Mission-critical data is replicated and stored in a different physical location. If the primary servers experience downtime, the service can seamlessly fall back onto the backup data copies.


Advanced security measures:

Reliable cloud providers protect both their data centres and their customers’ data – from robust access control to intrusion detection, from data encryption to firewalls to physical security solutions.
