Why Gamma Horizon?

High voice quality

The right connectivity is essential to delivering high-quality voice connectivity, simply sending voice traffic down your existing broadband can lead to degradation of service. To prevent this we provide dedicated fibre connections or managed ethernet circuits with QoS (Quality of Service) routers to ensure you continue to receive the high-quality voice connections you require.

Mobility

With a Horizon phone system, there is no need to change your telephone numbers when you move or when you have equipment at multiple sites.

Home, office and mobile workers can all be contacted as if they were all in one office, irrelevant of their physical location.

Voicemail settings

Using the Horizon voicemail settings users can choose to have voicemails sent via email and text for convenience. This additional functionality provides great flexibility and allows for professional, punctual communications at all times.
