Business phone systems for the world after the landline
The old copper network switches off in 2027. Here is what replaces it — with your numbers kept, the line rental gone, and no box on the wall.
Choose a phone system
Two good answers, and the right one depends on where your team already spends its day.
Simply VoIP
A true cloud phone system with handsets, apps and inclusive UK calls. Build your quote online and see the price before you speak to anyone.
ExploreMicrosoft Teams Phonesoon
Calling inside the Teams your staff already have open. Right for desk-based teams, wrong for reception desks and warehouses — we will say which you are.

It is not only the phones. Lift lines, alarm panels, door entry, card machines and care alarms are on the same copper.
Call Reporting & Insightssoon
Who called, when, and which advert produced it. Number Tracker and Ask Insights, inside the portal you already use.
You keep your number
Porting an existing number is routine and we do it constantly. What varies is the lead time — we will tell you what it is for your provider before you commit to anything, not after.
The line rental goes away
A cloud phone system removes the line rental and the maintenance contract, and usually the on-site box as well. Most of the saving is in the things that are no longer on the bill rather than the call rates.
Still on a line that is being switched off?
The closer 2027 gets, the busier every provider becomes. Moving early is cheaper and calmer than moving late.
