What if you could streamline your business calls while significantly reducing your costs? If you haven’t heard of the 3CX phone system, it’s time to take a closer look—this could be the cost-saving solution your business has been searching for.
What is 3CX?
3CX is a software-based VoIP (Voice over Internet Protocol) phone system designed to replace traditional landline systems. It allows businesses to make and receive calls over the internet, eliminating the need for expensive on-premises PBX hardware. The system is compatible with desk phones, mobile apps, and web-based softphones, offering flexibility for remote and in-office employees. With features like call forwarding, voicemail to email, and video conferencing, 3CX provides a complete business communication solution at a fraction of the cost of traditional phone systems.
What Makes 3CX Different To Other Phone Systems?
Unlike many VoIP phone systems that charge per user, 3CX operates on a per-concurrent-call model. This means you only pay for the number of calls happening at the same time, rather than for each individual user. For businesses with a large number of employees who don’t all make calls simultaneously, this can lead to substantial savings on telephony costs.
How 3CX Can Save You Money
- Concurrent Call Pricing – Traditional phone systems charge a licence fee per user, whether they make calls frequently or not. 3CX only charges for the number of simultaneous calls, making it a cost-effective alternative.
- Free Internal Calls – Businesses with multiple offices, especially those operating internationally, can enjoy free calls between locations using 3CX. No more expensive international call fees!
- No Need for Expensive Hardware – 3CX works as a software-based phone system that can run on your existing hardware, reducing upfront costs.
- Lower Maintenance Costs – As a VoIP solution, 3CX requires less maintenance than traditional phone systems, helping businesses cut down on IT expenses.
- Ideal for Businesses with International Offices
For companies operating across multiple locations, 3CX offers seamless communication between offices without long-distance charges. Wherever your team is in the world, they can call each other as if they were in the same building.
How Businesses Are Benefiting from 3CX
Businesses of all sizes can benefit from switching to 3CX. Because you it’s charged per concurrent call rather than per user, it’s a highly scalable solution. Which makes it perfect for businesses that are still growing. Here are some of the ways different businesses have used 3CX to save money without sacrificing quality.
- A Marketing Agency Cuts Costs
A marketing agency with 50 employees was previously using a traditional phone system that charged per user, costing them thousands annually. Since only 5-10 employees were making calls at any one time, they switched to 3CX’s concurrent call pricing. This reduced their licensing fees by over 50%, saving them thousands per year while still providing full communication access to all employees.
- A Retail Business Eliminates Inter-Branch Call Charges
A retail business with stores in London, Manchester, and Edinburgh was spending heavily on inter-branch calls. By switching to 3CX, they eliminated internal call costs, allowing staff to communicate freely across locations without additional charges. This improved collaboration while saving money on their telecom expenses.
- A Manufacturing Company Connects International Offices
A manufacturing company with offices in the UK, Germany, and the US was facing high international call costs between its branches. With 3CX, they were able to create a unified phone system across all locations, allowing employees to call each other for free, improving collaboration while cutting down on long-distance charges. The ability to use 3CX on mobile devices also allowed their sales and logistics teams to stay connected on the go without additional expenses.
