Linx 1.0.0
The first public release of Linx: a complete phone system for a home or small office, on a server you own.
Calls
- Extensions for everyone, ring groups that ring a team all at once or in turn, and office hours with holidays.
- Incoming numbers set up with a short wizard: who rings, what happens if nobody answers, and what callers get when you’re closed.
- Voicemail in the web app, and from a desk phone by dialling
*97, with the message-waiting light on desk phones. - Call history for everyone, with missed calls first and one tap to ring back.
- Calls in the browser: a phone in the web app, with presence so you can see who’s free.
- Desk phones and softphones sign in over an encrypted connection.
Phone lines and countries
- Bring your own phone line provider, or connect the office phone system or gateway you already have.
- Any country: Linx reads numbers the way they’re dialled where you are, and its emergency numbers always work.
- What phones can call: local, mobile, free, abroad and premium-rate numbers, each on or off. Calls abroad can go everywhere or only to the countries you choose.
- Alerts for every emergency call, the first call to a new country, and unusual calling abroad.
Safe by default
- Passkeys or an authenticator app for signing in, and company sign-in (Google, Microsoft and others).
- Sensitive changes ask you to confirm it’s you, and every change to where calls go can be undone.
- Calls are encrypted; nothing is sent in the clear.
Running it
- One command installs Linx on a Linux server (Intel/AMD or ARM), then you finish in your browser.
- Certificates are obtained and renewed for you; backups and restore are built in.
- Help is built in and searchable, and the same guides are on linxpbx.com.
- Runs on a small server: 1 core and 1–2 GB of memory.
Coming soon
- The iPhone and iPad app on the App Store.
- Video meetings with guest links.
