DataKom’s cloud-based phone system, KloudPBX will be upgraded to version 3.0 on Sunday 26th August.

The update brings many developments including:

  • Music on hold– now more flexible, allowing separate on hold music per site basis instead of one music on hold for the entire company
  • Extension number change – without the need to delete and recreate the user
  • Call recording group – provides access to specific user recordings from the portal
  • Recurring call recording – means calls no longer stop when the mailbox is full, the newest calls will overwrite the oldest calls
  • Local media processing – ensures that ‘on-site’ calls are peer-to-peer to reduce bandwidth requirements
  • UCE with/without voice – now available on the same user
  • Security database encryption – upgrade of security to keep your data and call recordings secure
  • KloudPBX audio conference bridge – conference calling platform with scheduling to book conference rooms to collaborate with colleagues and clients
