Make phone calls over the internet using your broadband connection with our VoIP Advantage (Voice over IP) phone service.

VoIP Advantage isn't just about making cheap phone calls. It's about having your own local phone exchange (PBX) with an easy to use web interface to manage extension numbers and call groups - ideal within the office and for virtual companies and home workers.

You set up and manage your Virtual service using our powerful control panel. You make and receive phone calls to and from "real" phone numbers or other VoIP users, using any of these options:

• A "real" telephone handset (adaptor required)
• SIP enabled "hard phones" (telephones which plug directly into the internet)
• "Soft phones" (software which you use with a headset and microphone through your computer)
  
  

VoIP Advantage gives you:  

• "Carrier Grade" voice quality (requires broadband ADSL).
• Free calls to your colleagues and other internet telephony users.
• Full PSTN (public telephone network) connectivity - dialling inbound and outbound.
• You can have your own geographic (e.g: Brighton 01273) or non-geographic (e.g: 0800 freephone or 0845 Lo-Call) phone number.
• Full range of PBX features - Voicemail, Hunt Groups, "follow me", Caller ID (including the name of the caller where known) Advanced routing options - IVR, time of day routing, voice prompts.  

What software or hardware do I need? You'll need a either a SIP compatible internet phone or a "softphone".  

What happens if I am off line?

Calls can be forwarded to another PSTN number, as you would using transfer options on a normal telephone line, or delivered to voicemail.
