In that case, moving to a hosted platform may make more sense than investing further in the existing PBX.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">When Are SIP Trunks a Good Choice?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">SIP trunks can be particularly suitable when:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n\n<li>The existing PBX is still fit for purpose<\/li>\n\n\n<li>The organisation has invested heavily in its current system<\/li>\n\n\n<li>Existing integrations need to remain<\/li>\n\n\n<li>The business wants control of the PBX<\/li>\n\n\n<li>The immediate requirement is to modernise line connectivity<\/li>\n\n\n<li>The existing system supports suitable SIP connectivity<\/li>\n\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Moving to SIP can therefore be a relatively focused project compared with replacing the complete communications platform.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">When Is Hosted VoIP a Good Choice?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Hosted VoIP may be more appropriate when:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n\n<li>The existing PBX is obsolete<\/li>\n\n\n<li>The organisation wants to reduce on-site infrastructure<\/li>\n\n\n<li>Remote and hybrid working are important<\/li>\n\n\n<li>Mobile and desktop applications are required<\/li>\n\n\n<li>The business wants centralised management<\/li>\n\n\n<li>Multiple offices need one communications environment<\/li>\n\n\n<li>A modern feature set is required<\/li>\n\n\n<li>The organisation does not want to maintain PBX infrastructure itself<\/li>\n\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Hosted platforms can be particularly attractive when the telephone system is being replaced anyway.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Which Option Is Better for Remote Working?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Hosted VoIP often provides a straightforward route to remote and hybrid working because users connect directly to a centrally hosted platform.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Platforms such as <a href=\"https:\/\/www.it-communicationsltd.co.uk\/hosted-3cx-phone-system\/\">Hosted 3CX<\/a> provide supported desktop, web and mobile applications.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">SIP trunking can also support remote users, but the experience depends heavily on the capabilities and architecture of the existing PBX.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">If the existing system was designed primarily for fixed office working, simply replacing its lines with SIP will not automatically give it all the features of a modern hosted platform.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Which Is Better for Multiple Offices?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Both can support multi-site organisations.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">With SIP trunks, several offices may connect to one central PBX or use multiple PBXs depending on the architecture.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">With Hosted VoIP, users from different locations can often connect to one centrally managed platform.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The correct design depends on:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n\n<li>Number of sites<\/li>\n\n\n<li>Existing PBXs<\/li>\n\n\n<li>WAN connectivity<\/li>\n\n\n<li>Call routing<\/li>\n\n\n<li>Numbering<\/li>\n\n\n<li>Resilience<\/li>\n\n\n<li>Management requirements<\/li>\n\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Can You Keep Existing Telephone Numbers With Both?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">In many cases, yes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Eligible UK numbers can normally be transferred to the new provider through number porting whether the target service is SIP trunking or a hosted telephone platform.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The migration should be planned carefully so that number porting and system changes happen in a controlled sequence.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">I.T Communications provides <a href=\"https:\/\/www.it-communicationsltd.co.uk\/telephone-numbers\/\">Telephone Number<\/a> and porting services alongside both options.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Which Option Is Cheaper?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">There is no universal answer.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">SIP trunking may appear less expensive when the business already owns a suitable PBX because it does not necessarily need to replace the complete system.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">However, businesses should consider the ongoing cost of:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n\n<li>PBX support<\/li>\n\n\n<li>Hardware maintenance<\/li>\n\n\n<li>Software licences<\/li>\n\n\n<li>Server replacement<\/li>\n\n\n<li>Electricity<\/li>\n\n\n<li>On-site resilience<\/li>\n\n\n<li>Internal administration<\/li>\n\n\n<li>Upgrades<\/li>\n\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Hosted VoIP can shift more of those responsibilities into a managed monthly service.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The useful comparison is therefore <strong>total cost of ownership<\/strong>, not simply the price of one SIP channel versus one hosted-user package.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">What About Call Charges?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Both service types need external telephone connectivity.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Depending on the provider and package, calls may be:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n\n<li>Pay as you use<\/li>\n\n\n<li>Bundled with included minutes<\/li>\n\n\n<li>Subject to an unlimited-use policy<\/li>\n\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">I.T Communications publishes current SIP pricing and call-inclusive options on the live <a href=\"https:\/\/www.it-communicationsltd.co.uk\/business-sip-trunks\/\">Business SIP Trunks<\/a> page.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Hosted packages should similarly be compared according to what is actually included.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Which Gives More Control?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">A customer-owned or customer-managed PBX with SIP trunks can provide a high level of direct control.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">That can be valuable for organisations with specialist technical teams or bespoke integrations.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Hosted VoIP shifts more responsibility to the provider.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">For some businesses, that is an advantage because they no longer want to maintain telephone infrastructure.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">For others, retaining direct control may remain important.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The right balance depends on internal expertise and operational priorities.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">What Happens If the Internet Connection Fails?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Both SIP trunks and Hosted VoIP depend on IP connectivity.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">However, the effect of an outage can differ according to the architecture.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">With an on-site PBX using SIP trunks, losing the site&#8217;s internet connection may prevent that PBX from reaching the provider&#8217;s SIP network.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">With Hosted VoIP, users at the affected site may lose connectivity while users at other locations continue to reach the hosted platform.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">In either case, resilience can be improved through options such as:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n\n<li>Secondary broadband<\/li>\n\n\n<li>Leased-line diversity<\/li>\n\n\n<li>4G or 5G failover<\/li>\n\n\n<li>Alternative call routing<\/li>\n\n\n<li>Remote-user applications<\/li>\n\n\n<li>Multiple sites<\/li>\n\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Which Is Easier to Manage?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Hosted VoIP generally places more day-to-day infrastructure responsibility with the service provider.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">SIP trunking leaves the customer responsible for more of the PBX environment.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">That does not make either model inherently better.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">A business with an experienced IT team may prefer retaining management responsibility.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">A smaller organisation may prefer a managed service with one provider responsible for the hosted PBX, SIP service and support.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">What About Security?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Both options need appropriate security.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Areas to consider include:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n\n<li>Strong credentials<\/li>\n\n\n<li>PBX patching<\/li>\n\n\n<li>Firewall configuration<\/li>\n\n\n<li>Access control<\/li>\n\n\n<li>Fraud prevention<\/li>\n\n\n<li>Monitoring<\/li>\n\n\n<li>Endpoint security<\/li>\n\n\n<li>Secure remote access<\/li>\n\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">With an on-site PBX, the customer may carry more responsibility for maintaining the platform.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">With a managed hosted service, some of that responsibility is transferred to the provider, although users and local networks still need to be managed securely.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">SIP Trunks vs Hosted 3CX<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Hosted 3CX is a useful example of the difference.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">If a business already has a compatible PBX it wants to retain, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.it-communicationsltd.co.uk\/business-sip-trunks\/\">Business SIP Trunks<\/a> may be sufficient.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">If the business wants to replace that PBX with a modern hosted platform, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.it-communicationsltd.co.uk\/hosted-3cx-phone-system\/\">Hosted 3CX<\/a> can provide the PBX, applications and call-handling environment as a managed service.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Businesses comparing 3CX costs can also read our article: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.it-communicationsltd.co.uk\/articles\/hosted-3cx-cost-uk\/\">How Much Does Hosted 3CX Cost in the UK?<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">What Internet Connection Do You Need?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Both approaches depend on suitable IP connectivity.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Important considerations include:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n\n<li>Bandwidth<\/li>\n\n\n<li>Upload capacity<\/li>\n\n\n<li>Latency<\/li>\n\n\n<li>Packet loss<\/li>\n\n\n<li>Jitter<\/li>\n\n\n<li>Network congestion<\/li>\n\n\n<li>Resilience<\/li>\n\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Suitable <a href=\"https:\/\/www.it-communicationsltd.co.uk\/business-broadband\/\">Business Broadband<\/a> can support many deployments.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Organisations needing dedicated symmetrical connectivity or stronger service commitments may consider a <a

class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Start by asking what problem the organisation is trying to solve.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Keep the Existing PBX?<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">If yes, SIP trunks may be the more natural option.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Replace the PBX?<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">If yes, Hosted VoIP deserves serious consideration.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Need Better Remote Working?<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">A modern hosted platform may offer a simpler route.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Have Complex Existing Integrations?<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Retaining the existing PBX may reduce migration complexity.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Want Less Infrastructure to Manage?<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Hosted VoIP shifts more of the platform responsibility to the provider.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Need Maximum Technical Control?<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">A managed or self-managed PBX with SIP connectivity may provide the desired flexibility.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Why the Provider Matters<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Whether you choose SIP trunks or Hosted VoIP, the provider&#8217;s network and support model remain important.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">I.T Communications operates its own UK SIP network across infrastructure in two London data centres, with carrier interconnects and direct operational control.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">That infrastructure supports our SIP, Hosted 3CX and wider business-voice services.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p

Questions<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Is SIP Trunking the Same as Hosted VoIP?<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">No. SIP trunking normally connects an existing compatible PBX to a provider, while Hosted VoIP includes the hosted telephone-system platform itself.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Do I Need a PBX for SIP Trunks?<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Yes, a compatible telephone-system platform is required to use a SIP trunk.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Does Hosted VoIP Need a PBX?<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Hosted VoIP still uses a PBX or communications platform, but it is hosted rather than maintained as a traditional system at the customer&#8217;s premises.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Can I Keep My Number With Either Option?<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Eligible numbers can generally be ported to either service.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Which Is Better for a Small Business?<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">It depends on the existing system and requirements. A business without a suitable PBX may find Hosted VoIP simpler, while one with a good existing system may benefit from SIP trunking.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Which Is Better for Remote Workers?<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Hosted platforms often provide a straightforward remote-working experience through desktop and mobile applications, although compatible existing PBXs can also support remote users.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Need Help Choosing Between SIP and Hosted VoIP?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">I.T Communications can review your existing phone system, numbers, users, locations, connectivity and future requirements before recommending whether SIP trunks, Hosted 3CX or another business-voice option is more appropriate.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.it-communicationsltd.co.uk\/business-sip-trunks\/\">Explore SIP Trunks<\/a> | <a href=\"https:\/\/www.it-communicationsltd.co.uk\/business-voip\/\">Explore Business VoIP<\/a> | <a href=\"https:\/\/www.it-communicationsltd.co.uk\/hosted-3cx-phone-system\/\">Explore Hosted 3CX<\/a> | <a href=\"https:\/\/www.it-communicationsltd.co.uk\/contact-us\/\">Contact I.T Communications<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Compare SIP trunks and Hosted VoIP, including PBX ownership, costs, migration, features, resilience and which option may suit your UK business.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":82,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[4],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-57","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-business-voip"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.it-communicationsltd.co.uk\/articles\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/57","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.it-communicationsltd.co.uk\/articles\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.it-communicationsltd.co.uk\/articles\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.it-communicationsltd.co.uk\/articles\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.it-communicationsltd.co.uk\/articles\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=57"}],"version-history":[{"count":2,"href":"https:\/\/www.it-communicationsltd.co.uk\/articles\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/57\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":61,"href":"https:\/\/www.it-communicationsltd.co.uk\/articles\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/57\/revisions\/61"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.it-communicationsltd.co.uk\/articles\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/82"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.it-communicationsltd.co.uk\/articles\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=57"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.it-communicationsltd.co.uk\/articles\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=57"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.it-communicationsltd.co.uk\/articles\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=57"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
