Aarenet partners with Comfortel to expand into the Polish market

Aarenet develops and deploys carrier – grade VoIP systems and has delivered solutions with carriers in many countries across Europe and South-East Asia. As demand grows for cloud-based and integrated communication platforms, Poland represents a key market for expansion.

Under the agreement, Comfortel will provide local sales, integration, and support. The partnership allows Comfortel to offer Aarenet’s PBX platform both as a standalone (single-tenant/on-premise) solution and as a cloud/hosted, multi-tenant service – scalable from SME to large enterprise deployments.

The solution combines carrier-grade reliability with a flexible architecture that supports both dedicated (standalone) and multi-tenant environments, enabling efficient service delivery and predictable recurring revenues. All customer data is hosted and processed under the European law ensuring compliance with local data protection requirements and addressing growing demands for data sovereignty. Its modular design supports integrated services such as contact center, conferencing, and collaboration, while open APIs ensure easy integration with existing business systems as well as AI driven future functionalities such as personal PBX assistant.

Head of Telecommunication Systems Department at Comfortel Rafał Wójcik: „For over 30 years, we have successfully deployed communication systems based on traditional TDM and VoIP technologies, which perform excellently in specific business scenarios. However, we know that market needs are highly diverse and require a personalized approach for every client. Expanding our portfolio to include Aarenet solutions is a natural step that allows us to offer an even wider range of possibilities. Thanks to this cooperation, we can precisely tailor the right system architecture to the specific requirements and strategy of each enterprise.”

Robert Lange, Aarenet Country Manager Poland: “Poland is a dynamic market with strong demand for modern PBX and Unified Communication solutions. With Comfortel, we have a partner that combines local expertise with strong customer relationships – making it an ideal fit to successfully grow our business in the region.”

For customers, this means faster deployment, simplified management, and a secure, future-proof communication environment. The platform is particularly relevant for organisations that prioritize data privacy, operational reliability, and digital sovereignty, such as enterprises, public sector institutions, and regulated industries.

Inalp is a Swiss high-tech company that creates and sells technology for secure mission-critical networks and IoT systems. Its award-winning SwarmGuard technology (worldwide patent pending) offers a new and simple way to connect servers and devices into a secure “swarm.” These swarms provide a strong, reliable backbone for businesses, service providers, and operators of critical infrastructure such as power grids and defense systems.

Aarenet is a Swiss-based technology provider specializing in secure and private, high-availability VoIP and Unified Communications (UCC) solutions. Serving telecommunications providers, utility companies, service providers, and enterprises, Aarenet delivers powerful Class 4/5 VoIP systems, Cloud PBX platforms, and AI-driven communication solutions designed to enhance security, efficiency, and automation.

Aarenet’s AI powered call filter against unwanted calls

Aarenet’s AI powered call filter against unwanted calls

Aarenet, in collaboration with katia.ch, offers an Artificial Intelligence powered call filtering system to block unwanted and bulk phone calls – especially those from telemarketers. The solution combines known spam number databases, operator-specific lists, and AI-based real-time analysis of call behavior.

In collaboration with katia.ch, Aarenet has implemented an AI-powered call filtering solution to effectively combat unwanted calls. When activated, the filter significantly reduces nuisance calls – particularly those generated by telemarketers.

Traffic analyses reveal that a high number of incoming calls are attributed to unwanted sources, including auto-dialer bots from telemarketers, advertising campaigns, and foreign-originated nuisance calls. The call filter provided by katia.ch leverages a comprehensive database of publicly known spam numbers, enhanced by real-time call pattern analysis from connected systems.

This dynamically updated list is seamlessly synchronized with the Aarenet switching platform. Incoming calls identified as suspicious can be automatically blocked or forwarded to a generic voicemail, preventing disruption to end users.

The filtering mechanism combines multiple intelligence sources including known malicious numbers from various databases, operator-specific spam lists, and AI-driven analysis of live call behavior. By continuously evaluating actual call patterns, the system can also detect number changes used by call centers, ensuring that new spam attempts are identified and integrated to the call filter without delay.

Aarenet and katia.ch have been working together since 2017 and the solution is implemented and active across the majority of Aarenet’s productive systems in Europe. With the addition of AI-powered enhancements, the solution has become even more robust, delivering substantially improved protection against unwanted calls. Analysis showed that with the active call filter up to 30% of all incoming call traffic will be blocked, resulting in a noticeably cleaner and more reliable calling experience.

New Aarenet Cloud PBX Software Release 7.23

The Aarenet Cloud PBX Software Release 7.23 has been approved for general availability effective January 1, 2026. As of now, all newly deployed systems will be commissioned with this software release. A seamless upgrade path is available for existing installations, ensuring no disruption to active services.

During the second half of 2025, numerous new features were developed and integrated into the anOne Desktop application for Windows and macOS. These enhancements include significant user experience improvements and additional functionality to support daily operations and a browser extension feature to enable usage of the client without the need to install the software. Presence status information is now displayed during contact searches, providing immediate visibility into whether a contact is available, away, or currently on a call. Additionally, video calls now support seamless background blurring, offering improved privacy and greater flexibility in managing visible surroundings.

The integration of the Swagger framework introduces a standardized description of the integrated REST API, enabling external systems to interpret its structure. Based on the OpenAPI Specification, this integration defines API endpoints, parameters, and responses, supporting interactive documentation and automated code generation for external solution developers. In version 7.23, this description provides access to core database tables and instances.

Support has been added to the autoprovisioning toolkit for Yealink W75B and W75DM multi-cell DECT systems, along with integration of the SNOM M400 small multi-cell DECT solution. These additions enable cost-effective deployment of cordless services in small and medium-sized enterprise environments. Also, to support new partners in Poland, Polish language translations were added for the portal and client applications, alongside improved and extended French system language translations.

Integration of the HID standard for audio devices enables call control functionality via headset and peripheral device buttons. This standard allows users to answer or end calls, mute microphones, and perform other call actions while away from their desks using HID-compatible headsets. Supported devices are available from manufacturers including SNOM, Yealink, Poly, Dell, JBL, Microsoft, Logitech, Bang & Olufsen, Shokz, and AKG.

Detailed information on all features included in the actual software release is available upon request.

Swiss Providers Embrace Aarenet’s CloudPBX as Demand Grows

Over recent months, Aarenet has seen rising demand for its CloudPBX solution across the Swiss telecom market. This reflects a broader industry shift toward scalable, flexible, and cost-effective cloud communications.

To meet this momentum, Aarenet plans a major CloudPBX expansion in 2025, featuring a new Unified Communications (UC) suite aimed at enhancing collaboration and productivity for businesses of all sizes.

CloudPBX is a fully managed, user-friendly platform that offers modern PBX essentials—voicemail, call forwarding, and mobile access—alongside advanced features like intelligent call routing, IVR, and cross-device connectivity. It also integrates smoothly with existing infrastructure and supports SIP trunking, making it ideal for service providers looking to expand without backend complexity.

Swiss providers such as EW Buchs and Sasag already use Aarenet’s CloudPBX, reporting benefits like simplified maintenance, lower overhead, and faster service deployment. The system is built on a multi-tenant infrastructure and hosted in a secure Swiss data center on dedicated infrastructure and managed by the support center based in Switzerland. In recent months, traction with new customers outside Switzerland has been visible thanks to the system’s flexibility and international readiness.

Frank Remmers, Aarenet’s VP of Product Management, emphasizes the platform’s simplicity. “We’ve focused on features users actually need, which shortens setup time and improves usability compared to older, feature-heavy PBX systems,” he explains.

This focus on ease of use extends to configuration and setup, a key factor in customer adoption. The 2025 release will add presence-based messaging, group chat, video calls, and Office 365 integration—transforming CloudPBX into a full collaboration hub for hybrid and remote work.

Aarenet continues to expand its partner network. With the upcoming UC Suite, even more resellers are expected to become part of the Aarenet ecosystem.

Whether you’re expanding your portfolio or seeking a modern communications platform, Aarenet’s CloudPBX is a smart choice. For more details or partnership info, contact your Aarenet Account Manager.
