With v15, ongoing maintenance has been reduced to almost nothing. Many aspects of running a PBX have been automated, avoiding the need to move to an expensive public cloud service. Companies can retain full control of their phone system – on premise or in the cloud. Security, backup and restore, update management and failover are automatically managed by 3CX.
Nick Galea, CEO 3CX said:
“3CX V15 raises the bar on Unified Communications systems with zero admin, bulletproof security, integrated video conferencing, more applications integrations and more. We expect this feature set and our new pricing strategy to dramatically increase our market share.”
Bulletproof Security
3CX’s inbuilt security has been notched up:
- Automatic generation and management of SSL certificates:
- Provisioning of phones via HTTPS
- Connections to client and console via SSL
- A+ rating from SSL lab.
- Encryption of Voice Traffic via SRTP
- All traffic to clients and via SBC is encrypted
- More secure web server configuration

3CX now sets the standard in PBX security.
