Not just another phone vendor

Most phone companies look after the handset and their own cloud. The network and firewall in between are left to you, and that is where call quality and security problems start. CloudLine and NTQ are the same company, so our IT team looks after the whole path.

The path a business call takes: handsets and apps, your office network, your firewall, your internet link, then the CloudLine platform, which runs on our own softswitch and billing system. A typical phone vendor supplies the handset and runs their cloud, and leaves the network, firewall and internet link to you. CloudLine sets up, secures and supports the whole path.

Firewall set up for voice

We can configure your firewall so calls connect cleanly, without opening your network up to the internet.

Clear calls start on the network

Choppy audio and dropped calls are usually network problems. We find and fix the cause, not just swap the handset.

ISO 27001 certified

CloudLine runs under the same certified information security management system as NTQ.

Works with your IT provider

Already have one? We will work with them. Don’t have one? NTQ can look after the rest.

Our story

We built the phone system our IT clients kept asking for

NTQ has looked after the networks, servers and cloud services of Queensland businesses since 2008. Phones kept coming up. Clients wanted one number that rang the office and their mobile, call queues that worked, and someone local to call when they didn’t.

So in 2023 we launched CloudLine. Because we come from IT, we set it up the way an IT team would: on business-grade networks, configured properly at the firewall, and supported by people who understand everything between the handset and the internet.

Today we run our own softswitch and billing platform, so call routing, numbers and invoices are handled by our team rather than passed to a wholesaler. CloudLine looks after businesses across Australia directly, and powers voice for IT providers who sell it under their own brand.

Customers Australia-wide, plus white-label partners

For IT providers and MSPs

Yes, we’re an IT company too. Your clients stay yours.

We know that matters when you choose a voice partner, so here is how we work with partners.

  • Our own platform: we run the softswitch and billing system ourselves, so there is no third-party platform between you and your clients.
  • White label: your brand on the apps, portal and invoices. Your clients only ever see you, and we never contact them.
  • Channel partner: we look after your client’s phone service and billing only, and they stay your client.
  • No minimum spend, and porting your clients’ numbers in is free during onboarding.
