How Does a Hosted Phone System Work?
March 8, 2019

Here's how a hosted phone system works using VoIP & the cloud.

A hosted phone system, often referred to as 'hosted PBX or hosted telephony' is a new form of business communications that rivals the traditional 'on premise' telephone system. But how does hosted telephony work and how can it benefit your business?

How does a hosted phone system work?

When stripped back, a hosted telephone system is a very simple premise. Hosted telephony uses VoIP and cloud technology to connect your business to the telephone network (PSTN). Instead of having a physical telephone system on your premises, you use a VoIP connection to communicate via the eve cloud platform.

Hosted phone systems use VoIP to make and receive your businesses voice calls via the cloud. This cloud platform acts as a traditional telephone system, processing, controlling and serving your businesses telephone calls.

Here is a diagram showing the basics of how hosted telephony works. It shows how our eve network acts as middle man for your businesses calls, allowing you to keep your costs down by eliminating the cost of on premise hardware.
