The phone system that runs your business calls — queues, a professional menu, apps and a self-service portal — from secure Australian data centres, not a box in the cupboard. Month-to-month, with Aria ready to switch on when you want her.

Hosted-X is a cloud PBX — the brains of your phone system run as software in secure Australian data centres, and your desk phones, mobile apps and laptops simply connect to it over the NBN. There is nothing on the wall to fail, nothing to maintain on site, and no technician on speed dial. It is the modern replacement for the old on-premise PBX box, and for a pile of mobiles pretending to be a business line.
Add users, sites or features when you need them; changes to greetings, hours and call flow are things you do yourself in the portal, in minutes, at no charge.
Not an 80-feature slide. The ones that change a working day, all on Hosted-X, not sold back to you as add-ons.
A professional "press 1 for reception" menu that routes callers to the right place, every time.
Monday morning is not an engaged tone. Callers hold or route to the right team instead of ringing out.
Messages land in an inbox as audio and text, so nothing sits unheard in a message bank.
Your business number on a desk phone, a mobile and a laptop — take calls anywhere.
A national number for the website and signage, ported or newly issued.
Off until you switch it on, for training and dispute resolution — with the notice your policy requires.
Opening hours, public holidays and close-downs set in the portal, not by a support ticket.
Change messages and diversions yourself, and see missed calls and peak times instead of guessing.
Keep the numbers you have. Porting is an ACMA-regulated process we handle at no extra cost.
A Yealink handset on reception and every desk, programmed and labelled before it arrives.
The Hosted-X app puts the office number in your pocket — useful for principals who leave the floor and staff who work from home.
A softphone on the desktop, so a headset is all a home-office day needs. Same number, wherever you answer.
Because Hosted-X is software Pear runs, there is no hardware in your building to fail, and no version to fall behind. Updates and new features arrive automatically, with no disruption to your calls.
New features and fixes are applied for you, in the background. You never run an out-of-date phone system.
No PBX box drawing power 24/7, no maintenance visits, no firmware to patch, and no IT person needed to keep it running.
A cloud PBX rides on your internet connection — one bill, one cable — so we design for the day that connection has a bad moment.
Aria is Pear's AI receptionist, built into the same Australian platform as Hosted-X. When the desk cannot pick up — overflow, lunch, after hours — her modules answer, take a structured message or a live booking, and can turn calls into notes for review. Switch a module on when the office is ready; there is nothing extra to install and Aria is priced separately. Meet Aria →
