Page 1 of 2 Manage calls in your business or call center Axon is a virtual PBX for Windows or Linux designed to manage calls in a business or call center. Any business, whether small or large, can now implement a scalable VoIP based PBX by installing this software on any PC. The software works as a fully featured telephone switch connecting to phone lines and extensions using state-of-the-art VoIP technology.
Offering all the normal features of a traditional PBX such as allowing internal or external calls and more advanced call queuing for call center applications the software routes all calls within a business.
Axon can also be used in conjunction with our other telephony software including IMS On-Hold Messages System, VRS Voice Call Recording Software, IVM Call Attendant, Voice Mail and IVR Software and Express Talk Internet Phone.
