What's New in DLS Hosted PBX 6.1
Version 6.1 shipped in April 2026, and maintenance releases follow every few weeks. DLS designs, builds and operates this platform in-house, and every release is published for customers to read.
Call Transcription and Summaries
Recorded calls and voicemails are transcribed and searchable. Call summaries pull out the details that matter to your industry and show them in the call record.
Microsoft Teams Integration
The Desktop Communicator integrates with Microsoft Teams, so your team keeps calling and collaboration in one place.
Mobile Communicator
Your business extension, voicemail and messaging on your smartphone, wherever work takes you.
Business SMS, Registered Right
Text customers from your business number. A guided registration wizard with an AI assistant and DLS-hosted opt-in pages get your campaign approved by the carriers.
Open APIs
User and Systems APIs expose call records, voicemail, Follow Me, call blocking and more. Build your own integrations with our developer documentation.
Redesigned Web Interface
A modern, responsive portal for users and administrators that works on any screen. Your white-label branding is preserved.
Personal Call Blocking
Every user keeps a personal blocked-number list alongside the system-wide blacklist your administrator manages.
Built and Supported in the U.S.
DLS has developed and operated its own platform since 2005. Release notes are public, and technical support is U.S.-based, around the clock.
See It in Action
A few screens from DLS Hosted PBX 6.1, as your users and administrators see them.
Read Your Voicemail
Every message is transcribed. See a preview of each one in the inbox, open the full text, and download or copy it when you need to pass it on.
Recordings You Can Search
Recorded calls are listed by date, caller and destination. Transcribe any of them on demand, and keep transcripts for as long as you keep the recordings, or longer.
Follow Me, Set by the User
Ring the desk, then the mobile, then voicemail. Machine detection and selective hours are a toggle away, and users set it themselves from a browser.
Program Keys From a Picture of the Phone
Lines, extensions and directory keys are assigned on a picture of the actual handset and pushed to the device, no manual needed.
