Direct answer: Agents take calls in the browser. The PBX still owns hold, transfer, mute and who is allowed to see which queue. The recording is the system — not a slide deck. Architecture: CCaaS case study.

What this recording is not

  • Not a slide deck or logo animation — the recording is the running product.
  • Not a Genesys, Five9, Twilio Flex or public PBX login on unifiedPBX.in.

Questions about this recording

No. UnifiedPBX.in is a consulting and build practice. The recording is software you would operate or commission — not a public tenant login.

A working-system walkthrough of custom pbx agent panel with webrtc and call control — real admin and operator screens, not a marketing reel.

In today’s world of unified communications, businesses demand flexible, scalable, and secure telephony platforms that go beyond traditional PBX systems. I recently completed aCustom PBX and Agent Panelproject designed to bring enterprise-grade call management, WebRTC integration, and modern APIs together in one powerful solution.

This system was built with FreeSWITCH/Asterisk at its telephony core, a Node.js microservices backend, and a React.js/Next.js Progressive Web App frontend, delivering a complete end-to-end communication platform.

🔑 Key Features

📞 Core Telephony

  • WebRTC Calls from the browser (no softphone required)
  • Full Call Control– Hold, Transfer, Mute, and Conference
  • CDR (Call Detail Records) with detailed call logs
  • Dynamic Dial Plan, IVR Menus, Extensions & Feature Codes
  • SIP Trunk & Gateway Setup for carrier integrations

👥 Campaign & Lead Management

  • Inbound & Outbound Campaign Management for sales, support, and outreach
  • Lead Management System with integrated call history & assignment
  • Campaign Script Management so agents always have the right pitch in real time

🔒 User & Access Management

  • RBAC (Role-Based Access Control): Dedicated dashboards for Admins, Supervisors, Agents, Customers, and Vendors
  • Secure Authentication: JWT-based login with granular permissions

🔗 API-Driven Microservices

  • Node.js backend with modular microservices for scalability
  • FreeSWITCH/Asterisk integration via CURL/XML APIs for real-time dialplan updates
  • REST APIs for CRM/ERP integration

🗄️ Data & Analytics

  • PostgreSQL database powering CDRs, campaign data, and lead tracking
  • Real-time campaign dashboards with agent performance & call outcomes

🎨 Frontend Experience

  • React.js + Next.js frontend built as a PWA for seamless desktop & mobile use
  • Campaign dashboards with live metrics and agent monitoring
  • Drag-and-drop IVR and Dial Plan builder

⚙️ Technical Highlights

  • Telephony Handling: Either FreeSWITCH or Asterisk can be used interchangeably.
  • Node.js Microservices: Handle call routing, provisioning, logging, and API endpoints.
  • Dynamic Config Updates: Admins can modify dialplans and IVR menus from the web panel, instantly applied via XML/CURL to the telephony engine.
  • Security: JWT-based authentication with granular RBAC ensures secure access.

🚀 Why This Matters

Unlike legacy PBX solutions, this custom platform is cloud-ready, API-driven, and browser-native. It empowers businesses with:

  • Lower cost of ownership(WebRTC eliminates softphone licensing).
  • High scalability with microservices.
  • Seamless integrations into existing business workflows.
  • Future-ready communications with IVR, SIP trunking, and custom call flows.

🏆 The Result

The system is not just a PBX — it’s a complete communication hub where businesses can manage their entire telephony infrastructure from a web browser. With real-time control, call analytics, and extensible APIs, it is designed to scale with the needs of modern enterprises.

✅Tech Stack Used:

  • Backend: Node.js, Microservices, REST APIs
  • Frontend: React.js, Next.js, Progressive Web App (PWA)
  • Telephony: FreeSWITCH / Asterisk (configurable)
  • Database: PostgreSQL
  • Security: JWT, RBAC
  • Features: WebRTC, CDR, IVR, Extensions, SIP Trunks, Gateways, Feature Codes

🔗 This project showcases how modern frameworks combined with powerful telephony engines can create a next-generation PBX system— bridging the gap between traditional telecom and cloud-native communication platforms.
