VoIP and unified communications that keep teams connected

We help organizations modernize their communications stack with dependable voice, collaboration, and mobility tools.

ShadowEdge supports business communication systems that are easier to manage and more resilient for remote and hybrid work environments.

What VoIP and unified communications include

Unified communications brings the tools your team uses to reach each other and your customers into one connected system. That includes desk-phone and softphone calling, a mobile app that carries your business line on a personal device, messaging, and call routing that sends calls to the right person or team. Voicemail, auto-attendants, and call reporting are managed from one place instead of a box in a closet.

Migrating from a legacy phone system

Replacing an aging phone system does not have to mean losing your numbers or a day of missed calls. We port your existing business numbers to the new platform and manage the process so callers never notice the change. The cutover is planned around your schedule, with the new system tested before the old one is retired, and this often pairs naturally with a review of your cloud and connectivity setup.

What makes call quality reliable

Because VoIP runs over your internet connection, call quality depends on the network underneath it. Enough bandwidth is part of the answer; the rest is configuration. We work with our network management and QoS service to give voice traffic priority over less time-sensitive data, which is what prevents the choppy audio and dropped calls that give VoIP a bad reputation when it is set up carelessly.

Supporting hybrid teams and multi-location businesses

A cloud phone system does not care where your people sit. Staff can take and place business calls from home, a second office, or the road, all with the same extension and voicemail they use at their desk. That flexibility suits busy front offices, such as dealership front offices juggling high call volume, and it serves businesses in Folsom and Elk Grove, into neighboring El Dorado County, and across the region that run more than one location.

Frequently asked questions

What is VoIP and how is it different from a traditional phone system?

VoIP (Voice over IP) runs your phone service over your internet connection instead of dedicated phone lines. It typically costs less than legacy systems, scales by adding licenses instead of hardware, and lets your team answer business calls from desk phones, computers, or mobile apps.

Can we keep our existing business phone numbers?

Yes. Existing numbers can be ported to the new system, and we manage that process during the transition so callers never notice the change.

What do we need for good call quality?

Reliable internet bandwidth and a properly configured network. We assess your connection and set up quality-of-service rules so voice traffic gets priority over less time-sensitive data, which is what prevents choppy or dropped calls.

Does VoIP work for remote and hybrid teams?

Very well. Because the system lives in the cloud, employees can take and make business calls from anywhere using a softphone app or a desk phone at home, with the same extensions, voicemail, and call routing as in the office.

Do VoIP phones still work during an internet outage?

Cloud VoIP depends on your internet connection, so a full outage at the office will take desk phones offline. The system itself keeps running in the cloud, though, so calls can be routed to mobile apps or forwarded to cell phones automatically, and a backup or failover internet connection keeps the office online through most disruptions. We plan for that up front rather than assuming the connection never drops.
