eReceptionist

A business phone system you can use anywhere

Visit eReceptionist

eReceptionist is a virtual business phone system for UK businesses, providing a business number that can be used from anywhere. It handles incoming calls through forwarding, extensions and voicemail, and supports outbound calling, helping teams manage customer and colleague calls without relying on a traditional landline.

Core features include advanced call forwarding, call recording, call reporting and analytics, multiple extensions, professional greetings, call whisper, call screening, and voicemail transcription to mp3 or WAV files sent by email. The eReceptionist app runs on iOS, Android and Windows, offering VoIP calling across up to five lines, app-to-app calls, and separate work and personal lines.

Plans are packaged by user count, ranging from a pay-as-you-go option with no included credits to tiers with a set number of users and monthly landline or mobile call credits. Paid tiers are covered by a 30-day money-back guarantee, and call forwarding rates vary by destination.
