From call record to team alert

Illustrative workflow · Example details

  1. 01 / CALL

    An emergency call is placed

    Example: extension 214, Building B, Floor 2. Caller context depends on the records and extension information you maintain.

  2. 02 / RECORD

    PBXDom receives the record

    Collection starts after the PBX makes the record available. Some systems wait until the call ends.

  3. 03 / NOTIFICATION

    Configured channels notify your team

    Email, Slack, or Zapier on Pro and up; SMS and automated voice on Advanced and up. Confirm recipients and the contents of each alert.

Not a delivery-time guarantee. Validate PBX output, available fields, collection, and channel delivery for your deployment.
Why it matters

The 911 call is the easy part. Finding the caller isn't.

In a school, hospital, hotel, or campus, your team needs useful caller context. Keep extension information current and validate which details your records and configured alerts can provide.

Honest timing

Timing depends on PBX record generation, collection, and channel delivery. Validate the complete path for your exact deployment.

Caller & location context

Available context depends on the call-record fields and the extension information you maintain. Confirm the content of each configured alert.

Choose alert channels

Configure available email, SMS, automated voice, Slack, and Zapier channels. Delivery times can differ by channel. Email, Slack, and Zapier on Pro and up; SMS and voice on Advanced and up.

Deployment review

Review emergency dialing, notification timing, and dispatchable location with your telephone-system provider. Record-based alerts alone do not establish compliance.

Audit trail

Review received emergency-call records. Confirm the available notification and delivery evidence before relying on it for an audit.

Works with documented PBXs

No new phone system is required when the existing PBX and call-record output are supported.

Compliance

Kari's Law & on-site notification

Emergency dialing, notification, and dispatchable-location requirements depend on the applicable rules and deployment. A record received after a call ends may be too late for the required notification. PBXDom's record-based alerts do not configure 911 routing or deliver dispatchable location to the public safety answering point.

Review 47 CFR § 9.16 with your telephone-system provider and counsel. Validate the required emergency functions separately from call-record reporting.

Beyond 911

Explore additional call-record alerts

Available alert conditions depend on your plan and the fields received from your PBX. Review these use cases during evaluation:

After-hours activity

Calls placed from the warehouse at 3 AM? Get a heads-up before it becomes a pattern.

International & premium numbers

Review unexpected international or premium-rate dialing as a potential sign of toll fraud. Alerts do not block calls or guarantee loss prevention.

Specific numbers or prefixes

Watch calls to competitors, regulators, or any number list that matters to your organization.

Volume spikes & dips

Review unusual call volumes using the records available from your system.

"Our vendor said there really wasn't anything out there to fulfill our needs. I stumbled upon PBXDom, and once the team assisted with getting it functional, we have never looked back."
