Question: Can I really get a functional IP-PBX for free?
Answer: Yes!
The 3CX phone system is a software based IP-PBX and SIP Server that installs on a regular windows server or computer. It is available in four editions, including the free edition.
It is equivalent to many expensive hardware based phone systems, only it's possible to provide you with a free edition of it because there's no factory and raw materials involved in building them.
Many people opt to purchase compatible hardware, software and advanced licensing, especially when they see how much of their budget they free up, but your system is fully functional either way.
