Virtual PBX Complete Recognized for Outstanding Innovation

SAN JOSE, CALIF. (March 22, 2011) – VirtualPBX, the inventor and leading supplier of hosted business phone services, announced today that TMC, a global integrated media company, has named Virtual PBX Complete a recipient of the 2010 INTERNET TELEPHONY Product of the Year Award.

Virtual PBX Complete is a turnkey hosted IP-PBX business-class phone system designed for small and mid-size businesses. It sets new standards for flexibility, features, price and ease of installation. Virtual PBX delivers everything a business needs to provide professional phone support for customers, prospects and employees – eliminating the need to request dial-tone service and other expensive options from traditional service providers.

With just an Internet connection, businesses can utilize the industry’s richest menu of phone features, accessible from the user’s choice of a traditional handset, soft client or SIP phone. The solution ships with a quality VoIP phone as the default, and pricing plans set a new bar for value, offering 40-80 percent savings per month compared to traditional business phone plans.

“Virtual PBX already offers the industry’s deepest feature set in the PBX-in-the-cloud space,” said Greg Brashier, COO of Virtual PBX. “With the new Virtual PBX Complete solution, the current inbound call router immediately becomes a full business phone system, ready to replace PBX hardware, land lines, and analog phones with a better featured and less expensive solution.”

Virtual PBX Complete ships with a quality VoIP phone as the default. Pricing plans set a new bar for value with metered plans that start at under $10 per month. In addition, Virtual PBX Complete is built around the concept of open systems. Clients can use VoIP hard phones and soft phones registered to Virtual PBX, or employ its award-winning VoIP Peering technology to work with any SIP-compliant device.

Key features of Virtual PBX Complete include:

  • Dial-tone service
  • Polycom VoIP phones
  • Auto-attendant with professional greetings and greetings library
  • Customizable greetings and hold music for different departments
  • Complete voicemail with retrieval online, by phone or by e-mail
