Q: What is Hosted IP PBX?

A: A hosted IP PBX system delivers PBX functionality as a service, available over the internet. Instead of buying PBX equipment, users contract for PBX services from a hosted IP PBX service provider, a particular type of Application Service Provider (ASP). Today, it is possible to get hosted IP PBX service that includes far more features than were available from the first systems of this class, or to contract with companies that provide less functionality for more simple needs.

The central functions of a hosted IP PBX service are similar to those of hardware PBX systems installed at the user's premises. The main difference is that hosted PBX customers don't buy, install, or maintain any PBX equipment. Instead, the PBX equipment is kept by the service provider, who then shares access to the system among many users (customers).
