THE OPERATIONAL CHALLENGE

Make your legacy telephony simpler, more resilient and easier to manage

Old lines, mixed systems and local workarounds can quickly become difficult to support, secure and justify. Modernising gives you the opportunity to simplify your estate, protect service continuity, and relieve pressure on IT without creating more disruption along the way.

Replace legacy voice

Move from ageing systems to cloud calling. PSTN, ISDN and PBX dependencies can create migration risk and uncertainty.

Keep numbers controlled

Map, port and protect important numbers. Critical numbers, call flows, sites and services need to be understood before any change begins.

Protect continuity

Design routing and resilience into the service. Customers and teams still need dependable inbound and outbound calling during migration and beyond.

The solution: designed for demand, built for speed

Replace fixed capacity with flexible call handling

City View moved beyond a four-phone model to a modern hosted telephony service that enables up to 13 staff to log in and handle calls. Teams can now respond quickly to demand, cover absences more easily and direct resources to the busiest lines in real time.

Modernise call flows around patient needs

Seven dedicated call routes now connect patients with the right service, including appointments, prescriptions, vaccinations, home visits and test results. Smarter routing has helped balance demand, reduce unnecessary queueing and create faster, fairer access for around 15,000 patients.

Build a voice service that keeps improving

Live dashboards, detailed call analytics and accessible call recordings give the practice greater control over performance, staffing and service quality. Managers can continuously refine call flows, strengthen governance and use real evidence to support recruitment, training and complaint resolution.

Is managed voice modernisation simply about replacing a telephone system?

What is cloud telephony?

Cloud telephony is a provider-hosted calling service that reduces the need for organisations to operate telephone infrastructure on-site. It can support users across offices, remote locations and mobile devices.
