All of 3CX’s power.
None of the server headaches.

3CX is powerful, but it demands an IT team to maintain the server, manage OS updates, renew annual licences, and troubleshoot SIP trunks. Vantact delivers the same enterprise feature set, fully managed on Canadian infrastructure, with zero self-hosting overhead.

For Ontario IT partners looking to offer managed hosting, Vantact is your turn-key platform. For direct businesses, it’s the enterprise phone system that just works, without a server room.

For Direct Businesses

Enterprise phone system. Zero IT overhead.

3CX self-hosted means your phone system depends on a server someone has to maintain. 3CX cloud-hosted is better, but it’s still 3CX’s infrastructure, 3CX’s pricing model, and 3CX’s support SLA. Vantact gives you the same enterprise features: auto-attendant, call recording, mobile app, analytics, on fully managed Canadian infrastructure with a local team behind it.

Why Ontario businesses choose Vantact over 3CX managed hosting.

3CX is a great platform when someone else manages the infrastructure, but finding a trustworthy managed hosting provider for 3CX in Ontario is its own challenge. Vantact removes that search entirely. We’re the platform and the managed hosting provider, built here, operating here, accountable here.

check_circle

No split responsibility

With 3CX managed hosting, the platform vendor and hosting vendor are different companies. With Vantact, there’s one number to call.

check_circle

Canadian voice infrastructure

Our voice network, PSTN interconnects, and storage are all Canadian. No routing through international data centres for Ontario-to-Ontario calls.

check_circle

Built for Canadian regulations

CRTC-compliant DID provisioning, E911, and PIPEDA-ready data handling, built in, not bolted on.

check_circle

Simple per-seat pricing

3CX licences scale by simultaneous calls, not seats, which creates pricing surprises as you grow. Vantact is per-seat, in CAD, predictable.
