What Is Hosted Phone (VoIP)?

Hosted Phone is a fully-managed, Voice over IP (VoIP) phone system that backs up to our data centers to give businesses a sophisticated, scalable, and highly-functioning hosted unified communications system.

What’s The Difference Between PBX and Hosted Phone?

REV Business Hosted Phone is a monthly service with everything you need included—phones, equipment, service, installation, and training.

What Happens If I Lose My Internet Connection?

It is important to establish primary and backup Internet connections that support both VoIP phones and computers. These can both be plugged into a simple router that can be used to automatically switch to the backup ISP if the primary ISP goes down.

How Is Hosted Phone Different Than Skype & Vonage VoIP Services?

Some VoIP providers offer a solution that uses the public internet and is not engineered for optimal performance. Sometimes it works fine, but performance can vary widely based on location, time of day, and the amount of data traffic. In contrast, REV Business’ Hosted Phone is a network-based phone system that utilizes REV Business’ managed, secure, and high-performing private IP network. Your traffic is managed and prioritized and is not subject to the same uncontrollable inconsistencies seen in public internet services.

How Is The Voice Quality?

Since Hosted Phone is an end-to-end managed solution managed by REV Business, voice quality is comparable to what you’re used to today. However, as technologies such as high-definition voice emerge, voice quality for services like Hosted Phone will be far superior to what you have today.

Will The Data Traffic In My Office Affect Voice Quality?

Hosted Phone is a fully managed solution – REV Business ensures voice quality from your phones all the way into the phone network. Our network prioritizes voice traffic so that voice always has priority, no matter how much data traffic there is.

How Does 911 Service Work With Hosted Phone?

When your company signs up for Hosted Phone service, the physical address that you provide to REV Business will be reported to local emergency service personnel when 911 calls are placed. It is important to note that calls from REV Business’ Hosted Phone service to any Enhanced 911 emergency center will report this physical address you provided when the service is initiated, even if the device is moved to another location. If you move phones after the initial installation, you MUST notify REV Business of the new physical address, otherwise, emergency responders may not reach you.
