BT Cloud Voice is a hosted VoIP phone system for growing small and medium-sized businesses, especially those with five or more users. It lets teams make and receive internet calls from different locations using local business numbers, automatic call routing, transfers, voicemail to email, Call Director, and voice or video conferencing, depending on licence. Desktop and mobile apps run on Android, iOS, macOS, web, and Windows, and users can also call through approved IP devices. Optional UK and international packages include pay-as-you-go, shared minute bundles, and unlimited UK national and mobile calls. Cloud Voice Call Analytics can report attempted, made, received, and missed calls by company, department, team, or employee. Cisco Webex integration adds meetings, messaging, screen and file sharing, and virtual whiteboards. Microsoft Teams users can click to call through Webex. Plans start at £10.52/user/mo, billed on a 60-month licence and excluding VAT.
