VoIP Phone Systems in Durham
Business phones that run over your internet connection rather than a line in the wall. For Durham businesses this means numbers that follow your team wherever they work, and it also means being ready for the switch-off of the traditional network, which retires ISDN and analogue lines entirely.
Why this comes up
The problem
Traditional phone lines are being withdrawn, so every business on ISDN or analogue has a forced migration ahead of it. Businesses that wait until their line is cut off end up choosing a system in a hurry.

VoIP Phone Systems in Durham — common questions
- What happens to our number?
- It ports across and stays yours. Number porting is the part people worry about most and it is routine — the timing needs planning, but losing a number you have advertised for fifteen years is not a real risk.
- Will call quality be worse than a normal line?
- Not if the network is prepared. Poor VoIP quality is nearly always a network problem — voice traffic competing with everything else — and prioritisation fixes it. On a connection that genuinely cannot support it, we will say so before selling you a system.
- What happens to phones if the internet goes down?
- Calls divert automatically to mobiles or another site, which is something a traditional line cannot do. Businesses where phones are the trading channel usually pair that with a backup connection.
- Do we have to change now?
- The old network is being retired, so eventually yes. Moving on your own timetable is considerably less painful than moving on the withdrawal date with whatever supplier can fit you in.
- Do you work with businesses across County Durham?
- Yes. We are based in Leicester, United Kingdom and work with clients throughout North East, including Durham and the surrounding County Durham area. Most collaboration happens remotely, and we travel for kick-offs and key milestones.
- What kind of Durham businesses do you usually work with?
- Research spinout software and visitor systems, usually on institutional procurement timelines rather than commercial ones. Beyond that we work across Higher Education, Tourism & Heritage, Public Sector, Retail and Research.
- Do you cover the areas around Durham?
- Yes — we work throughout North East, including Newcastle, Sunderland, York. Durham is an urban area of roughly 70,000+, and we take on work across the wider County Durham region rather than the city boundary alone.
