- Automatic failure detection & fallback, ensuring minimal downtime during critical situations such as natural calamities, power outages, or network failures.
- Inbuilt SD-WAN service for secure remote server networking or bring your own VPN service
- Instant notification by call and email for any PBX server failure or automatic failover
- Super simple setup
- Can be combined with PBX Hot Standby (local redundancy setup) to build a higher level of system redundancy
