3CX phone system FAQ
Plan the call experience before choosing features.
Licensing, integrations and supported capabilities change. We confirm the current requirements during design.
What is 3CX?+
3CX is a software-based business communications platform that supports SIP calling, extensions, call queues, IVR, web and mobile apps, supported IP phones and a range of integrations.
Can we keep our existing phone numbers?+
Often yes. Number porting depends on the current carrier, number type and documentation. Podium IT plans the port and confirms the cutover approach before changes are made.
Does 3CX work with Microsoft 365 or Teams?+
3CX supports Microsoft 365 integration for capabilities such as user sync, sign-in, contacts and presence. Teams Direct Routing is available only with compatible 3CX editions, capacity, Microsoft licensing and technical configuration, so requirements must be checked for each environment.
Is 3CX suitable for medical and dental practices?+
It can be. We design call queues, reception flows, after-hours messages, extensions and continuity around the practice. Any recording, transcription or messaging feature must be assessed against consent, privacy and organisational policy before use.
