ArcNet

Your phones and your contact centre, in one portal

ArcNet runs your company's extensions, numbers and call routing, and the contact centre on top of them. Your team answers on a desk phone or in the browser, and soon on our own mobile app. Built in South Africa, billed per second in rands.

Everything a business phone system does, and a contact centre in the same place

Phone system

Extensions, numbers, auto-attendants, hunt groups, business hours, voicemail to email and call recording, all managed from one portal.

Contact centre

Call queues, an agent workspace with wrap-up and outcomes, live wallboards, queue reports and AI scoring of calls against your own scorecard.

Costs and security

Per-second billing, budgets per extension, and fraud protection that holds unusual calling and tells you straight away.

Change your phones yourself, without logging a ticket

Add an extension, change where calls go after hours, record a new greeting or see who is registered. The portal shows what every phone and number is doing.

  • Search every extension, number and account from one box
  • See which phones are registered and which are not
  • Every change recorded in an audit log, with who made it and when

Plug it in. It's ready

Add the phone's MAC address and a template to an extension, and plug the phone in anywhere. It finds ArcNet by itself and collects its extension, keys and settings, with every key laid out the way you chose in the portal.

  • Every Yealink T3x, T4x and T5x model, with templates you build once for hundreds of phones
  • Busy lamps for colleagues, queues and parked calls
  • Hot desking: log in to any shared phone with a PIN

Made in South Africa, for how businesses here work

ArcNet is designed, built and supported in South Africa, around the things local businesses deal with. Your call recordings are stored in South Africa too.

Per secondCalls billed by the second, in rands.
+27South African numbers, and the national number format your staff dial.
Load-sheddingAn extension also rings in the browser, so people can keep taking calls on a laptop when the office power is off.
Multi-carrierMore than one carrier behind every account, not a single network.

ArcSIP: your office extension, in your pocket

Take calls to your office number anywhere, see who in the company is free, transfer as you would at your desk, and hand a live call to your desk phone when you walk in.

ArcSIP is our own app, built in-house rather than a rebranded softphone, with live call quality in both directions and our own push server behind it. Coming soon to iPhone, then Android.

One extension, wherever your people are

Desk phones

Yealink phones set up from the portal. Staff who move around log in to any desk phone with hot desking.

In the browser

Answer and make calls from a browser tab, with the caller's details and the contact centre workspace beside them.

Mobile app

ArcSIP, our own app, is coming soon to iPhone. Take a call on the road, then hand it to your desk phone when you walk in, mid-conversation.

Microsoft Teams

Calls to your numbers ring in Teams alongside the desk phone, and calls from Teams go out with your company's caller ID.

Built for the way calls really work

Outbound dialler

Preview and progressive campaigns, answering machine detection, scripts, callbacks and a do-not-call list.

Auto QA

Every call transcribed and scored against your own scorecard, with reports by agent sent to your team.

Fraud protection

Unusual spend, destinations or sign-in locations hold outside calls and alert your admins at once.

Keys on a real handset

Lay out desk phone keys on a true-to-life drawing of the phone, with busy lamps for your colleagues.

Bring your own carrier

Keep a trunk you already have, set up step by step, with every ArcNet feature on top.

Changes apply at once

Save a route or a new number and it's live within seconds, with an audit log of who changed what.

Call flows on one canvas

See every step a call takes from the first ring, and change it in a draft before anyone calls.

Routing from a sentence

Say how calls should go in plain words, and ArcNet's AI builds the call flow for you to check and publish.

Roll back any change

Every routing change is kept as a version. See how calls went before, and put it back.
