Say Hello to Contrex
Contrex utilises a highly scalable, distributed architecture which is fully resilient and can be used by organisations of all sizes.

How does a VoIP phone system work
Simple Online Management
Contrex provides the user with a fully functional web portal to manage the services that the platform supports, as well as a multi-tiered distribution partner management system. The Contrex platform and web portal can be completely white-labelled for our reseller partners and their resellers.
Leave Security to us
As with any cloud-based service, security is of the utmost importance. The Contrex platform sits behind hardware firewalls that are managed by the Hello Telecom Technical Team.

Hello Telecom’s Fraud Monitoring and Detection system continually watches over the Contrex platform, checking for unusual call patterns and proactively alerting and suspending customer accounts when needed.

Contrex utilises SIP, where all information between a handset or alternative end point and the Contrex platform is encrypted. In addition, we recommend all customers utilise a VoIP Optimised Connectivity circuit to connect to Contrex. These circuits run over a VPN, which provides an additional level of security.

Contrex is continually evolving to meet the demands of today’s Communications marketplace
