Exovo
What Exovo is
Exovo is a self-hosted business phone system deployed on customer hardware or a cloud VM. It provides SIP extensions, ring groups, callback queues, digital receptionists, call parking, BLF keys, custom call routing, auto attendant, and voicemail transcription. Business SMS and MMS, internal team chat, and website live chat share a team inbox. Video meetings support browser guests, screen sharing, recording, and phone dial-in. Exovo lists 17 CRM integrations, including Salesforce, HubSpot, Zoho, ConnectWise Manage, and HaloPSA. A REST API with scoped keys, OIDC single sign-on, and Microsoft 365/Entra ID synchronization cover integration and identity needs. Security controls include TLS, SRTP, SIP scanner auto-banning, toll-fraud detection, role-based access, and TOTP two-factor login. Whisper transcription runs on the customer’s server, and the page says audio is not sent to a third party. Docker Compose deployment supports encrypted backup and restore. Exovo offers web, Windows, Android, iOS, API, and self-hosted access, with pricing on request and a 30-day trial.
