Already on Zoom? Here’s How to Add Real Phone Lines Without a Second Vendor

Business Communication, Zoom

Now IPFone connects Zoom to the public phone network, so your team can call out, not just log in.

If your team already lives in Zoom for meetings, getting real phone lines into that same platform used to mean adding a second system, a second bill, and a second vendor to call when something needed fixing.

IPFone removes that step by connecting Zoom directly to the public telephone network (PSTN), in a secure, reliable, and fully cloud-based way: no hardware, no extra setup, and one provider handling everything.

What’s Actually New With IPFone’s Zoom Phone Integration?

Zoom Phone has been part of Zoom’s platform for years, and recently surpassed 10 million seats globally¹. What’s new is who’s behind the dial tone: IPFone now provides the carrier connectivity that makes those phone numbers actually work.

In practice, your team keeps using Zoom exactly as is. IPFone works behind the scenes as the carrier, handling the dial tone, the call routing, and the connection to the public phone network.

Germán Yegel, Senior Voice Engineer at IPFone, sums up what the integration means for businesses: “Your team already runs on Zoom. This just gives them a real business phone line inside it, without bolting on another system or another vendor to manage.”

He also outlined the key features and business benefits driving that shift, detailed below.

What Are the Business Benefits of IPFone’s Zoom Phone Integration?

  • Lower operational costs by removing local infrastructure
  • Increased productivity through integration with collaboration tools

Why Does This Matter If You’re Already on Zoom?

Gartner projects that by 2028, 90% of organizations will rely on cloud platforms for enterprise telephony, up from roughly 30% in 2025, with spending on traditional phone systems falling by half in that window².

A lot of that shift still means running a meetings platform and a phone provider that don’t talk to each other. Consolidating both into Zoom removes that friction.
