Case study

How the Commune de Quaregnon modernised its public phone lines

Quaregnon is a Belgian municipality of around 18,000 residents. Its ageing analog phone system could not support remote work or a planned office move, so the commune switched to Voxbi cloud PBX with menu-based call routing, and made every line easier to run.

The challenge

An analog phone system that could not flex for remote work or a planned office move.

The solution

A cloud phone system with menu-based routing, so calls reach the right department on their own and staff can work from anywhere.

Fewer support requests
Same-day support response

The challenge

An analog system at its limit

The old phone lines were rigid and could not flex for remote work or the commune's upcoming office relocation.

Calls landing in the wrong place

Without automatic routing, residents were passed around and staff kept fielding calls meant for other departments.

Tied to one building

The old system was fixed to the town hall, with no easy way to extend it to remote staff or the planned new office.

Employees quickly adapted to the new tools, which simplified daily communication.

What Voxbi changed

Menu-based call routing

An interactive voice menu filters each call and sends it to the right department automatically, before it ever rings a person.

Work from anywhere

Staff are no longer tied to a desk handset. The same lines work from home or a new building without rewiring.

Less load on the team

Automatic routing sends callers to the right department on their own, which cut day-to-day support requests for staff.

Frequently asked questions

Is cloud PBX suitable for a municipality or public service?

Yes. A cloud phone system lets public services route calls to the right department automatically, work from any location, and make routine changes without a technician.

What is menu-based call routing?

An interactive voice menu greets callers and sends them to the right department based on their choice, filtering calls before they reach staff.
