Why UCXpress

Legacy PBX systems put your business at risk

On-premises phone systems cost more to run every year and limit how your team works.

Fixed capacity

Hard limits on lines and users make it difficult to grow.

Rising running costs

Ageing hardware, maintenance and scarce specialist technicians add up.

Security exposure

Older systems are more exposed to toll fraud and hacking.

Tied to the office

Staff need to be at their desk to take calls.

FAQs

Frequently asked questions

UCXpress is priced on simultaneous call capacity rather than per user, so you can add as many users as you need without extra licence costs. Simultaneous calls are available in increments from 4 up to 1,024.

A simultaneous call lets any two devices talk to each other. To make or receive calls outside your organisation, you also need an available external channel. Calls waiting in a queue use capacity too.

We look at your typical internal and external calls at peak times and size simultaneous calls and external channels to suit. Alerts can warn you when you’re close to your limit, and extra capacity can be added within minutes.

New inbound callers hear a busy tone until capacity frees up. Emergency calls are never limited.

Organisations moving off a legacy PBX, and those where many staff need a phone but make relatively few calls, such as schools, healthcare providers and hotels.

The desktop app runs in Google Chrome and is also available as a progressive web app. The mobile app needs Android 9.0 or later, or iOS 13.0 or later.
