The shift to cloud communications

Why businesses are moving to the cloud

A virtual business phone system replaces aging on-site hardware with cloud communications your team reaches from desk phones, computers, and mobile devices. Here is why Atlanta organizations are making the move to hosted PBX, business VoIP, and unified communications (UCaaS).

Employees answer business calls from desktops, laptops, smartphones, and tablets — in the office or remote.

Business Continuity

Maintain communications during office closures, internet outages, weather events, or disasters.

Lower Costs

Reduce telecom expenses without sacrificing enterprise features or call quality.

AI & Automation

AI attendants, intelligent call routing, voicemail transcription, and workflow automation.

Scalability

Add users, locations, and services without replacing infrastructure.

Unified Communications

Voice, video, messaging, collaboration, and presence in a single platform.

Voicemail Transcription

Zultys MXvirtual

A virtual UC & IP phone system without the hardware PBX

Zultys MXvirtual gives businesses the control and flexibility of a Zultys system without relying on a traditional hardware PBX appliance. It runs as a VMware-ready virtual appliance, so it lives inside the virtual environment you already manage — delivering voice, video, data, and mobility from a single, centrally managed platform.

For many Atlanta businesses, that means fewer boxes in the rack, easier scaling, and a familiar Zultys feature set with strong SIP trunk support. DataTel 360 plans, deploys, and supports MXvirtual end to end.

  • VMware-ready virtual appliance
  • Integrated voice, video & data
  • Mobility & softphone support
  • SIP trunk flexibility
  • Centralized management
  • Auto attendants & call routing

Zultys MX-E

Appliance-based control for on-premise & larger deployments

Some businesses still prefer — or require — a dedicated appliance. The Zultys MX-E is an appliance-based IP PBX for organizations that want a private, self-contained system with strong administrative control. It suits on-premise and private-cloud installations, hybrid setups, larger user counts, and multi-site businesses with branch locations.

If your IT or operations team wants to keep the phone system inside its own walls, the MX-E is a proven path. DataTel 360 sells, supports, and upgrades MX-E systems and can help you plan capacity, redundancy, and branch connectivity.

  • On-premise or private cloud
  • Hybrid deployment options
  • Larger user counts
  • Branch & multi-site support
  • Strong administrative control
  • SIP trunking
  • Upgrades & ongoing support

Migration

Moving from legacy phone systems?

DataTel 360 helps Atlanta businesses migrate from legacy PBX platforms to a modern cloud or hybrid system that fits. You do not have to replace everything overnight — we plan a gradual transition so your numbers, call flows, and daily operations keep working while you move.

Legacy systems we commonly replace

Nortel Avaya NEC Panasonic Toshiba ShoreTel Samsung OfficeServ Older PBX systems

A typical migration keeps legacy and new systems running side by side, ports numbers in stages, trains staff, and decommissions old hardware only once the new platform is proven. See our modern & legacy telecom support and network cabling for VoIP phone systems.

Network readiness

VoIP is only as good as the network under it

Call quality, reliability, and security all depend on the business network carrying the calls. Before any migration, DataTel 360 assesses your infrastructure and fixes the weak points — so voice is clear, secure, and stable from the first day of cutover.

Need the physical layer too? We provide structured cabling in Atlanta and Wi-Fi & internet failover.

FAQ

Virtual phone system questions

What is a virtual business phone system?
A virtual business phone system delivers calling, voicemail, and collaboration through the cloud instead of on-site PBX hardware. Employees use desk phones, desktop softphones, and mobile apps that connect over the internet, so the system works wherever your team is.
How much does a cloud phone system cost?
Most cloud systems are billed as a predictable monthly per-user subscription, which usually replaces separate charges for hardware maintenance and carrier lines. Total cost depends on the number of users, features, and any phones or network upgrades needed. We provide a clear, itemized quote so there are no surprises.
Can employees work remotely?
Yes. Remote and hybrid staff use the same business number, voicemail, and features from home or on the road through desktop and mobile apps — see our remote workforce solutions.
Can I keep my existing phone numbers?
In most cases, yes. We coordinate number porting so your existing business numbers move to the new system with minimal disruption, and we plan the cutover to keep you reachable throughout.
Do I need desk phones?
Not necessarily. Many teams run entirely on desktop and mobile softphone apps. Desk phones are still available if you prefer them, and you can mix both across your organization.
Can I use my cell phone?
Yes. A mobile app turns your smartphone into a business extension — make and take calls from your business number while keeping your personal number private.
What internet speed is required?
VoIP calls use relatively little bandwidth, but quality depends on a stable connection with proper Quality of Service. We assess your internet circuits, network, and Wi-Fi before cutover and recommend upgrades only where they are actually needed.
What happens if my office loses power?
Because the system lives in the cloud, calls can automatically reroute to mobile apps or other locations during a power or internet outage — a key advantage over traditional on-site systems. We help design failover so you stay reachable.
Can I connect multiple offices?
Yes. A virtual phone system unifies every location under one platform, directory, and set of features — extension-to-extension dialing, shared auto attendants, and centralized management. Ask about multi-location rollouts.
How long does migration take?
Timelines vary with size and complexity, but many businesses migrate within a few weeks. We typically run the new system alongside the old one, port numbers in stages, train staff, and retire legacy hardware only once everything is proven.
What is Zultys MXvirtual?
Zultys MXvirtual is a virtualized unified communications and IP phone system platform that runs as a VMware-ready virtual appliance — providing voice, video, data, mobility, SIP trunking, and centralized management without a traditional hardware PBX appliance.
Do you support Zultys MX-E?
Yes. DataTel 360 sells, supports, and upgrades appliance-based Zultys MX-E systems — including on-premise, private-cloud, hybrid, larger user counts, and multi-site or branch deployments.
Can DataTel 360 sell Intermedia Unite?
Yes. We sell, migrate, and support Intermedia Unite cloud communications for business customers — including phone, video, chat, SMS, auto attendants, hunt groups, and desktop and mobile apps. We deploy and support the platform; we are not Intermedia.
Can you help with SIP trunks?
Yes. We set up and configure business-grade SIP trunking for Zultys and other platforms, including dial plans, routing, and SIP security on your firewall.
Can you support older phone systems?
Yes. We support and migrate from legacy systems including Nortel, Avaya, NEC, Panasonic, Toshiba, ShoreTel, Samsung OfficeServ, and other older PBX platforms — at a pace that works for your business.
Do you provide emergency phone system support?
Yes. If your phones are down, our emergency support helps get your business reachable again. Call 770-441-9999 for urgent issues.
