Phone System Management

Connecting 3CX Systems
You can connect two remote 3CX Systems together, enabling calls between branch offices for free just by utilizing your existing internet connection. Assign a prefix to the “Bridge”, which you will dial to access the other 3CX Phone System. This prefix must be followed by the extension number you wish to reach on the other 3CX Phone System.

Alternatively, you can assign the extensions in Office 1 to start with one number (e.g. 100, 101, 102 where all extensions start with 1), and the extensions in Office 2 to start with a different number (e.g. 200, 201, 202 where all extensions start with 2). This way, users from one office can directly dial the extension number without using a prefix making calling between offices or branches seamless. In this case, when the outbound rule is created, you must ensure that the prefix corresponds to the numbering plan selected and that no digits are stripped.

Build your IVR and Call Center

Configuring the IVR / Auto Attendant
The 3CX “Digital Receptionist” function can answer phone calls automatically and present callers with an Auto Attendant or IVR (Interactive Voice Response) options menu, e.g. “For sales, press 1. For support, press 2 or wait to be transferred to the operator”.

You can configure digital receptionists with their own extension number and set these to answer calls based on the number called and the time the call is received, i.e. inside or outside office hours. For example, you can have a different prompt for out of office hours to not include the option(s) to transfer the call to unavailable groups/queues.
