PBX

BudgeTalk Start: shared cloud PBX from 1,000 HUF. BudgeTalk Pro: your own dedicated server, full flexibility.

IP PBX and cloud PBX — as your VoIP provider

BudgeTalk is a Hungarian VoIP provider that delivers IP telephony and a cloud PBX on its own infrastructure with number ranges registered with the NMHH (SK code: 633). The traditional on-premise switchboard is replaced by a web-managed, internet-based PBX — no capital expenditure, no expensive maintenance, and far better per-minute rates.

Why switch to a VoIP PBX?

IP telephony carries calls over the internet, so on-network calls are free and landline/mobile calls are significantly cheaper. The key advantages:

Keep your existing number through portability
Constantly intelligible, noise-free voice, no echo
Free on-network calling
Very competitive per-minute rates — landline 4.5 HUF/min, mobile 20 HUF/min
No more being tied to a location: reachable from anywhere in the world
Features other providers charge extra for: call forwarding, caller ID, automatic redial, conferencing

Two options: BudgeTalk Start and BudgeTalk Pro

Quick start: for simple needs we set you up in 1–3 days; if number porting is also needed, typically 3 days due to the porting process. For cases requiring consultation, we schedule a call within 3 days. There is no trial period — with the low monthly fee and no fixed term, there is no need for one.

BudgeTalk Start — shared cloud PBX

BudgeTalk Start is a shared, cloud-based PBX: multiple tenants share the common infrastructure, which keeps the price low. Banded monthly pricing based on the number of active extensions — 1–5 extensions 1,000 HUF, 6–10 extensions 2,000 HUF, 11–20 extensions 4,000 HUF, 21–40 extensions 8,000 HUF.

Predictable monthly fee + prepaid settlement. The PBX monthly fee is extension-based (fixed, plannable), while call charges (per-minute) and number fees are deducted from a prepaid balance. So the subscription stays constant and call costs remain transparent, matching your usage.

BudgeTalk Pro — dedicated PBX on your own server

BudgeTalk Pro is a dedicated solution: your own server sized to the planned load, with multiple trunks and transcoding capacity. There are no shared-tenant limits; every feature is available. We help with sizing through consultation, because most customers cannot assess the required capacity on their own.

Included in both

Call routing, call forwarding, caller ID
Hunt groups, IVR voice menu
Voicemail, call list, call recording (0 HUF)
Online administration interface
Hungarian-language customer support

Not familiar with PBX systems? We help.

Most customers do not want to plan IVR menus or call routing — they just want it to work. We do it for you: we assess the needs, put together the greeting, the menu items and the call routing, and set the system up. You just use it. No technical knowledge needed — the expertise is our job.

What devices can connect?

The VoIP phone service works with any SIP-compatible device:

Software VoIP phone (softphone) — a program installed on your computer that uses the machine's microphone and speakers (or a connected headset) for calls. Configure it with the details received at sign-up; it logs in to the system once switched on.
USB VoIP phone — connects to the computer's USB port; together with the SIP/VoIP software it behaves like a traditional handset, preserving the familiar feel for everyday use.
Hardware SIP phone — a traditional-looking phone but with a direct network connection; no separate phone line needed, and the built-in hub shares the network connection with the computer.
Analogue telephone adapter (ATA) — you can also connect your existing analogue device: the ATA accepts the network cable and presents the old phone to the system as a SIP device.
Fax (T.38) — Fax over IP runs on the T.38 protocol; modern multifunction devices usually support it, older models can be connected via an ATA.

Frequently asked questions

Is there a fixed-term contract?

No. The service can be cancelled at any time.

Can I keep my existing phone number?

Yes. Through number portability, typically within 1–1.5 weeks, we transfer your number.

What devices can I use it with?

Any SIP-compatible IP phone, softphone, or mobile phone (Mobile VoIP, 4G/5G).

Are the prices net or gross?

The listed prices are net prices and do not include VAT.

How can I request a quote?

On the Contact page, by phone or by email. For BudgeTalk Pro (dedicated) we size the system after a consultation.

Can I migrate from my existing ISDN or analogue system?

Yes. We handle ISDN replacement with a SIP trunk, and connect analogue devices with an ATA adapter — in most cases you can keep your existing numbers and some of the equipment.

What internet connection do I need?

A stable broadband internet connection is recommended for reliable call quality (at least 32 Kbit/s per voice channel). With today's gigabit connections this is available almost everywhere.

Is VoIP better than a traditional landline?

With a suitable internet connection, yes: cheaper, more flexible, expandable, and on-network calls are free. Business VoIP integrates especially well with other systems.

Does it work if I handle many concurrent calls?

Yes. The SIP trunk provides any number of concurrent channels, and BudgeTalk Pro means a dedicated server sized to the load.

What should I do if the internet goes down?

Mobile VoIP (4G/5G) has proven to work as a backup line: even a 30-seat call center can switch over to it when the internet line fails.

Is there a sign-up or setup fee?

There is no separate sign-up fee. The PBX monthly fee is extension-based, and call and number fees are deducted from a prepaid balance.

How does billing work?

Prepaid settlement: you pay the fixed PBX monthly fee, and call charges and number fees are deducted from your topped-up balance. This keeps the monthly fee predictable and usage transparent.

Can I use my existing analogue devices?

Yes. With an analogue telephone adapter (ATA) you can connect your existing analogue devices to the system — no need to spend on new devices.

What happens to my number during porting?

During porting the service may be suspended for a short window (up to 4 hours), typically on a working day between 20:00 and 24:00. Apart from that, calls run uninterrupted.

Do you help set up the system?

Yes. No technical knowledge needed: we assess the needs, put together the IVR menu and call routing, and set up the system — you just use it.
