Frequently asked questions

A cloud-based business phone system routes calls over the internet rather than traditional phone lines. Instead of on-site hardware and ISDN connections, everything is managed through a secure cloud platform. Users can make and receive calls from any device, desktop, laptop, or mobile, using a softphone app or a standard IP desk phone.

A traditional PBX (Private Branch Exchange) requires physical hardware installed on your premises, dedicated phone lines, and an engineer to make changes. A cloud PBX, also known as a hosted PBX or cloud VoIP phone system, runs entirely in the cloud. There is no hardware to install, updates happen automatically, and you manage everything through a web-based portal.

Absolutely. A cloud phone system for small business is one of the most popular use cases for Xelion. Because there is no hardware to purchase and users can be added individually, even a sole trader or a team of two or three can benefit. You get all the features of an enterprise phone system, hunt groups, voicemail, call recording, without the enterprise cost. Cloud phone systems for small business users are also straightforward to manage without any IT support.

For reliable cloud VoIP calling, you will need a stable broadband connection. As a rough guide, each simultaneous call uses approximately 100 kbps. Most modern business broadband connections are more than capable of supporting a cloud-based VoIP phone system without any issues.

Yes. Xelion supports number porting, which means we can transfer your existing business numbers to our cloud telephone system at no extra charge. You will not need to change your number or update your marketing materials. We handle the porting process and keep disruption to an absolute minimum.

Most customers are making and receiving calls through Xelion within 15 minutes of signing up. There is nothing to install on-site. Our guided onboarding process walks you through configuration, and our support team is on hand if you need help at any point.

Cloud-based IP telephony refers to voice communications delivered over an IP (internet protocol) network and hosted in the cloud. It is the underlying technology behind cloud VoIP and cloud phone services. Rather than using analogue or ISDN circuits, calls are converted into data packets, transmitted over your internet connection, and converted back into audio at the other end.
