What is Hosted PBX?
Hosted PBX, virtual PBX and hosted VoIP all refer to the same thing. A hosted PBX is a service that allows the routing of voice communication by software that does not physically reside at the location where calls are being made and received. The software that routes calls for your business is "hosted" by a service provider. Hosted VoIP is a related and synonymous term, as hosted PBX requires voice communication to come over an internet line (not a phone line).
Essentially, some technology is required to properly route phone calls when they come into your business. That technology used to be a physical box at your location, and in some cases still is. Prior to this, you had a human operator routing calls by plugging and unplugging cords. Thanks to the internet, you no longer need to worry about that box because it’s owned and maintained by a service provider. You use the hosted PBX via the internet, in much the same way you don’t need to have a server in a closet to house your digital files. Nowadays, you can access them remotely, using the internet with a system and environment that is commonly called “the cloud”.
