Hello. We are officially launching today as Official FreePBX® Partner for the UK, with @Sangoma Technologies awarding the licence for hosting @FreePBX in the UK. The partnership reflects the work of co-founders Kieran Byrne and Sam Knowles, the husband-and-wife duo behind @20telecom. Over a decade of trading has taken the pair from telecoms reseller to FreePBX specialists, providing self-managed hosting to businesses throughout the UK. Kieran Byrne, Head of Product at FreePBX UK, said: “FreePBX transformed my career. It saved us from a lifetime as a me-too reseller; teaching everything there is to know, ground up. We are now actively returning the favour by helping shape the future of the project.” The decision to award the partnership reflects 20tele’s reputation within the global FreePBX community, recognised for technical contributions and long-standing engagement with the project. Lauren Croxson, Senior Sales Director EMEA at Sangoma, said: “Kieran and Sam have been part of the FreePBX story in the UK for as long as I can remember. Their dedication to the project, and the way they’ve built 20tele around it, made them the obvious choice for this partnership. Sangoma is delighted to be working with them in this new chapter.” The launch brings to market a hosted FreePBX platform built for the UK, with transparent pricing and a migration incentive for businesses moving FreePBX from other hosting providers. Every FreePBX UK deployment is provisioned in minutes. The platform offers full root access for complete control, paired with self-service VPS management. Hosting plans start at £15 per month, with all tiers running in a London data centre with a free SysAdmin Pro licence, daily backups, and a 99.99% uptime SLA. FreePBX UK is a Registered Partner with @digitalocean, the cloud platform underpinning the FreePBX UK hosting service. All instances run on DigitalOcean’s AMD-powered Droplets in the London (LON1) data centre, providing low-latency connectivity to UK end users. To welcome migrating customers, FreePBX UK is offering Take 5: five hours’ support free, limited to one per customer and valid for 12 months.
