VoIP.ms PBX

Hosted cloud PBX, built into the VoIP.ms portal.

What is VoIP.ms PBX?

VoIP.ms offers a complete PBX directly in the customer portal at no additional cost. Incoming calls arrive on a DID, pass through your configured routing (eg. an IVR, ring group, queue, time condition, or voicemail) and reach the right device or destination. No server to manage, no software to install.

This solution is ideal for:

  • Small businesses
  • Simple office deployments
  • Users who prefer not to manage a PBX server

Prefer to run your own PBX software and use VoIP.ms SIP Trunks only? See PBXs for third-party options including Asterisk, FreePBX, and 3CX.

Contents


Call Routing

  • IVR (Digital Receptionist) — Play a menu and route callers to the right destination based on their input.
  • Ring Groups — Ring multiple devices simultaneously or in sequence.
  • Call Queues — Queue incoming calls and distribute them to available agents.
  • Time Conditions — Route calls differently based on time of day or day of week.
  • Call Forwarding — Forward a DID to an external number or SIP address.
  • Callback — Let callers trigger an outbound call back to themselves through VoIP.ms.
  • DISA — PIN-protected inbound dial tone for authorized outbound dialing through your account.
  • Announcements — Play a pre-recorded message to callers, then optionally disconnect.

Extensions

  • Subaccounts — Each subaccount is a set of device credentials. Assign an internal extension number to allow devices on the same server to call each other directly.
  • SIP URI — Route calls to or from any SIP address without using a traditional phone number.
