Blake Telecom delivers a business phone system in Aberdeen and across Aberdeenshire, that combines HD voice calling, video conferencing, team messaging, AI call transcription, and a full contact centre in one hosted platform. We have been configuring cloud communications for North East of Scotland businesses since 2004 and every system is built around how your operation actually works.

Ask an Aberdeen business what their phone system needs to do and the answer rarely stops at making calls. An operator coordinating with an offshore rig wants a call that holds steady no matter where the signal comes from. A solicitor on Union Street wants every conversation logged properly for the file. A hotel near the harbour wants reception to pick up instantly even when three lines ring at once.
None of that comes from a phone on a desk connected to a wall socket. It comes from a platform that treats every call the same way regardless of where your team happens to be standing, and gives you the tools to prove, review, and improve how those calls go.
That is the shift Aberdeen businesses are making, not because a phone system trend says so, but because the old way stopped keeping up with how they actually work.
Our platform is not a basic VoIP line with features bolted on. It is a fully hosted unified communications environment independently recognised in the Gartner Magic Quadrant for Unified Communications as a Service 14 consecutive times.
Choosing the right business phone system in Aberdeen means choosing a platform validated at the highest level, year after year, across verified customer outcomes.
UCaaS stands for Unified Communications as a Service. It replaces separate phone systems, video platforms, and messaging tools with one cloud environment at a single monthly price per user. The unified communications Aberdeen businesses benefit from most is a system that removes the cost of managing several independent subscriptions.
CCaaS stands for Contact Centre as a Service. It adds skills based routing, live wallboards, workforce management, and AI coaching on top of your core platform. Our system runs both on a single shared infrastructure, so voice, messaging, video, and contact centre interactions all share one analytics engine.
| Compare | UCaaS | CCaaS |
|---|---|---|
| Built for | Your whole team | Customer service and sales teams |
| Main job | Everyday calling, meetings and chat | Handling high volumes of customer contact |
| Typical tools | Business calling, video, messaging, voicemail to email | Call queues, skills based routing, wallboards, quality monitoring |
| Channels | Voice, video and chat | Voice plus email, web chat, SMS and social media |
| Reporting | Call activity and usage | Real time dashboards and agent performance |
| Ideal for | Offices, trades, retailers and professional firms | Support desks, booking lines and busy sales teams |
Plenty of Aberdeen firms start out with UCaaS alone and only add the contact centre layer once call volumes justify it. Because both sit on the same platform, nothing needs replacing when that day comes.
Every call is delivered in HD audio using the Opus codec, noticeably clearer than legacy system quality. Video conferencing comes with screen sharing, meeting recording, and clients and colleagues can connect from any device by using a browser without installing additional software.
Persistent messaging channels connect your team whether they are at their desk in the city centre, working remotely across Aberdeenshire, or between sites at Dyce or Westhill. Messages, files, and conversation history are searchable and sit alongside your calls on the same platform.
A visual console gives reception teams a clear screen for managing multiple inbound calls at once. Queue depth, agent presence, hold, transfer, and call park are all controllable from a single view.
Every call is transcribed in real time and an AI generated call summary is produced automatically when it ends, so nobody has to write up notes afterwards. Speech analytics surface sentiment trends, recurring customer questions, and agent performance patterns across your full call volume.
An AI virtual agent handles inbound calls at any hour without a human operator. It understands natural language, completes tasks such as appointment bookings and account queries, and passes the caller to a live agent with the full conversation context already transferred.
When a caller needs a specific person rather than the next available agent, Expert Connect routes the call based on account history, query topic, and current availability. An oil and gas firm in Aberdeen can connect a contractor directly to the right account manager without the caller pressing through a phone menu.
The platform connects natively to Microsoft Teams and the business tools you already rely on. This CRM integration means that when a customer calls, their record is already on screen. When the call ends, notes sync automatically.
Dial 01224 093300 and you reach someone who already knows your account, not an overseas call centre reading from a script or an automated queue for billing and technical issues. Aberdeen organisations have relied on this same team since 2004.
For Aberdeen businesses in energy, financial services, legal and healthcare, communication security is not optional. The platform holds , , and Cyber Essentials Plus, with TLS encryption running on every call. Read the for full details.
The features available through your plan depend on the package that suits your business. Our team will confirm the right combination before you commit to anything.

Every business phone system in Aberdeen we supply includes the full contact centre capability from day one. Whether you run a small service desk in Aberdeen city centre or an energy business spanning several sites across Aberdeenshire, the tools are the same.
Every system goes live in five steps, managed entirely by our team. There is no engineer visit to your Aberdeen premises and no disruption to your working day.
Step 1. Discovery Call
Your Aberdeen account manager covers your current setup, team size, sites across the city and Aberdeenshire, and the applications you rely on. Every question is asked at this stage so your configuration is complete before anything ships.
Step 2. Remote Build
Your system is configured and fully tested before delivery. Call routing, hunt groups, IVR menus, and integrations with Microsoft Teams and your other business applications are all working before your handsets leave the warehouse.
Step 3. Plug and Register
Phones arrive at your Aberdeen premises fully registered. Plug them into your router and they come online immediately. No cabling and no disruption to your team.
Step 4. Your 01224 Number Carries Across
Your existing 01224 number transfers to the hosted platform with no break in inbound calls during business hours. The process takes 10 to 15 working days, managed by our team throughout.
Step 5. Your Team Is Live
Teams using the app are typically live within minutes. Desk phone users follow within the same working day. Every user receives a short onboarding guide covering calls, voicemail, and messaging.
Aberdeen businesses do not choose Blake Telecom because of clever marketing. They choose us because someone answers the phone when something needs sorting, and because the system does what it is supposed to do without drama.
We have been doing this since 2004, long enough to know that a fishing operator in Peterhead has different needs from a legal practice on Union Street, and a hotel near the harbour has different needs again. Rather than sell everyone the same cloud PBX package, we build around how each business actually operates.
Support stays with the same UK based team throughout, from the first phone call through to years of ongoing use. Nobody gets passed between departments or left waiting on hold to someone who has never heard of their account.

Aberdeen businesses have been calling 01224 093300 for two decades when they need a system that works the way their operation works. In that time we have migrated oil and gas support firms off ISDN, connected various systems for healthcare networks across Aberdeenshire, connected legal practices on Union Street to remote fee earners, and set up hospitality businesses at the harbour front with systems that scale instantly through peak season.
Every one of those deployments was configured by a UK based team that stays on the account after go live. If you are ready to move to a business phone system in Aberdeen that fits how your business works, our team will have you live within days of your order being confirmed.
Openreach is permanently closing the UK Public Switched Telephone Network on 31 January 2027. The deadline is confirmed and will not move.
The 2027 PSTN switch off reaches further than most organisations expect. Every device relying on the copper network is affected: analogue lines, ISDN connections, payment terminals, fire alarm diallers, CCTV monitoring lines, door entry systems, and lift emergency connections. Openreach recorded a 45 percent rise in copper network faults during 2024.
Our business phone system in Aberdeen runs entirely over your existing broadband connection, with no copper dependency and your 01224 number carries across in full. Because it lives in the cloud rather than a box on site, it also gives you a genuine disaster recovery and business continuity plan: calls divert automatically if your broadband drops, and hybrid working is straightforward since a desk in the office and a laptop at home both connect to the exact same system. If you have existing equipment worth keeping, SIP trunking can connect it to the digital network without a full replacement.

Office Manager, Aberdeen
Moving our team over was far less disruptive than we expected. Numbers ported without a hitch and everyone was up and running the same week, handsets and all.
Operations Lead, Aberdeen
Call recording alone has saved us more than once when there was a dispute over what was agreed on a call. Having it there automatically, without having to remember to switch it on, makes a real difference.
Practice Manager, Aberdeen
What stands out is that nothing feels like a generic package. They took the time to understand how we work across two sites before recommending anything, and it shows in how well it fits.
