Internet Phone Service
How It Works

Aristotle’s Voice-over-Internet-Protocol phone service runs through your internet instead of old phone lines. That means clearer calls, more features, and lower costs for homes and businesses.

PBX (Private Branch Exchange) is a business phone system that connects your office, remote locations, and traveling employees into one simple phone network. Because it’s cloud-based, all the equipment lives off-site—so we take care of the maintenance, updates, and tech support for you. That means no tech headaches on your end, so you can focus on running your business. 

Aristotle Phone Service works best with a good, reliable internet connection, like fixed wireless or fiber. Satellite internet isn’t recommended, since the signal has to travel a long distance and can cause delays on calls.

Internet use for phone calls is minimal. Plan on about 90 kbps per person using the phone at the same time. For example, an office with 5 people on calls at once would only need about  Mbps up and down.

Even with phones in use, your business will still have plenty of internet speed left for everyday work.

Aristotle uses Quality of Service (QoS) technology to protect phone service data and ensure call quality. Call quality can suffer on VoIP systems if your broadband is disrupted by other applications using large amounts of data, including video streaming or transfer of large files.

To ensure crystal clear HD sound quality and to prevent dropped calls, Aristotle Phone Service ensures call traffic is highest priority on your broadband connection. Ample bandwidth is reserved for VoIP conversations to prevent other applications from interfering with the call signal.

This service is a necessity in a business environment.

Aristotle will coordinate with your office manager, IT staff, or network consultant during the setup process. After installation, no IT professional is needed to manage your Aristotle Phone System—we take care of the maintenance, updates, and tech support for you!

Yes, you can keep your phone numbers! Aristotle's team will port your current phone numbers over to the new system for you. This usually takes 7-10 days, but your current phone provider legally has up to 30 days to release your phone numbers. We will be there with you every step of the way until your numbers are ported. 

Like most VoIP phone systems, Aristotle Phone Service requires the use of IP phones that can broadcast signal digitally over your broadband connection. Aristotle’s relationship with Yealink, an IP phone industry leader, allows you to get new phones for as low as $4.10 per month. After 24 months you own the phones, and the monthly charge goes away. We want to eliminate large upfront equipment costs, while still providing the best technology.

Aristotle Phone Service calls deliver calls with crystal clear HD Sound. This feature is unavailable with traditional landline phones. Fortigate technology ensures that every Aristotle Phone Service call comes through with HD sound.

In most cases Aristotle Phone Service will save you money on your monthly recurring telephone cost because it eliminates dual cabling for Internet broadband, and telecommunications service. Also, by eliminating the traditional PBX equipment, thousands of dollars are saved on service and maintenance of PBX equipment. Aristotle Phone is saving some clients thousands of dollars a year.

Aristotle Phone telecommunications are government regulated. Users will pay the same taxes and fees that would be incurred with traditional landline service.

Your Aristotle Phone System can be up and running in 2-4 weeks after you finalize your decision. Our team will order your phones, begin installation and schedule training once your system is designed. If you have current phone numbers which need to be ported to your new system, you should allow at least 7-10 business days for this process. However, in some cases number porting may take up to 30 days.

The Aristotle staff trains every client on the features of their Aristotle Phone System. This training is included free of charge.
