Friends, this week will not be a purely technical topic. Instead, we will make some important announcements that we hope many of you will find helpful.
Free PBX 3CX with Google Cloud hosting for 1 year
We have prepared for customers and partners a unique offer on the market - a free PBX with the same free hosting on Google Cloud for a period of 1 year.
This offer will allow you to launch and use the 3CX PBX without any obligations very quickly. And then, when you see that the system suits you and works smoothly - you can expand the free license key to a commercial one and continue to use the PBX further. It is recommended to transfer the configuration to your own cloud (or your own cloud account in Google), a local server, or a
mini-PC (if you have a relatively small organization).
