2025 PSTN and ISDN shutdown

In 2025, the analogue telephone network will be shut down. From 2023, you will no longer be able to place orders for new telephone lines and ISDN. The replacement for the Public Switched Telephone Network (PSTN) is IP technology, which runs over the Internet. Of course, you don’t have to wait until 2023 to start making the most of IP technology with Hosted voice.

HD Voice

One of the first benefits you will notice on moving to Hosted voice is an improvement in the sound quality of your calls. Typically, voice over the Internet (VoIP) comes with high quality HD Voice audio. Calls across your system are also free so your employees can call each other for nothing.

Enable remote working

Many PBX phone systems do not offer a remote working option, or it can be difficult and expensive to setup. Hosted voice enables your employees to work remotely from anywhere. You can send and receive calls through your computer and mobile. You can keep the same office telephone number and extensions.

Advanced features

Hosted voice provides a wide range of advanced business features such as auto attendant, call forwarding, voicemail, call recording, video conferencing and instant messaging. Call reporting can provide you with valuable business insights and help you identify areas that need improvement, such as call waiting times, agent performance and lost calls. Hosted voice also integrates with numerous third-party applications such as CRM, facilities management and accounting software.

Flexible and scalable

Traditional communications platforms are too rigid to accommodate rapid growth. As your organisation grows and changes your communications must be able to adapt quickly. Traditional on-site PBXs can make scaling your business a slow, complicated, labour intensive and expensive. In contrast, Hosted voice makes it easy to add new users, setup new departments and open new branch offices.

Disaster recovery

Cloud-based communications provide reliability, resilience and security. Because your phone system is in the Cloud, a local crisis does not have to interrupt your business. If your office loses power, burns down or floods, your phone system remains intact and operational. You can move to a temporary location or have your staff work remotely from home, and quickly continue trading as normal.

  • Future-proof your organisation against the 2025 shutdown of the analogue phone network

Our Business is 100% connectivity reliant because we host our own VoIP, 90+ site VPN, web and data base servers. Modern Networks were happy to allocate us 1Pv4 address space with this connection and so far (2 years uptime), connectivity has been more reliable than our two Tier 3 Data centre colocations and vastly more reliable than a business broadband line installed by one of the major players. Thank you!
