How to switch to VoIP in a week

A practical timeline to move from a legacy phone system to a modern cloud phone setup.

Most small businesses can switch to a cloud phone system without drama if you follow a simple order of operations.

1) Inventory

List your numbers, extensions, departments, and after-hours routing rules.

2) Porting plan

We recommend porting DIDs first, then the main number last to reduce risk.

3) User rollout

Start with a pilot group, then train the rest of the team.

4) Cutover

Schedule cutover for a low-call window and keep a fallback route ready.
