What FreePBX gives you
FreePBX is the web front end to Asterisk, the open-source telephony engine. It turns a famously configurable dial plan into forms: extensions, trunks, inbound routes, queues, IVRs and time conditions, with modules for everything from call recording to CRM pop-ups.
Because it is Asterisk underneath, nothing is hidden — when the GUI stops short, the configuration files are still there, on an instance you have root on.
Key features
- Full PBX feature set. Extensions, trunks, inbound and outbound routing, queues and IVR.
- Module library. Hundreds of free and commercial modules installed from the GUI.
- Recording and reporting. Call recording, CDR reports and queue statistics.
- Standards-based. Works with any SIP provider and standards-compliant handsets.
- Root access. Asterisk configuration reachable directly when you need it.

Getting started
Four steps from sign-in to a running application. The full walkthrough, with screenshots, is in the knowledge base.
-
01
Log in to the Cloud Portal
Sign in at portal.antyxsoft.io and start creating an instance, choosing the region closest to your users.
-
02
At Select Template, open Marketplace App
In the instance creation flow, switch from operating-system images to the Marketplace App tab.
-
03
Pick the template and deploy
Select the ready-to-go template, confirm the plan and region, then review and deploy. The instance boots with the application installed.
-
04
Finish the application setup
Open the web GUI, create the administrator account, then add a SIP trunk and your first extensions.
Before it carries real traffic
- Attach a Cloud Firewall that opens only the ports this application needs, with management access limited to your own addresses.
- Schedule backups covering both the database and the application's data directory.
- Add a Block Storage volume for data that will outgrow the instance disk.
- Put it inside a VPC when it needs private access to other services.
