Organisations can customise their service across call flows, branding, messaging, business rules and integrations. This includes IVR prompts, language, currency, payment journeys, operating hours, routing logic, and CRM or backend integrations.
Authorised contacts can request changes through our support channels or with their Account Manager. Where appropriate, customers can provide their own content (such as prompts, brand guidelines, scripts or business rules) for deployment.
Scaling
- Independence of resources
- We design our services using dedicated and logically segregated components to prevent contention between customers. Call flows, applications and data stores are isolated per tenant, ensuring one customer’s activity cannot degrade another’s service. Resource limits and throttling protect shared infrastructure, while change and release processes ensure performance impacts are assessed before deployment. This architecture guarantees consistent performance and availability, regardless of demand generated by other users.

Availability and resilience
- Guaranteed availability
-
Our services are designed for high availability and are delivered from resilient, dual data centre environments to minimise the risk of single points of failure. We guarantee 99.95% service availability, measured on a monthly basis and excluding agreed maintenance windows.
Availability is continuously monitored, with any degradation or outage logged and managed under our incident management and support processes. Customers are notified of incidents that may affect service availability, with regular updates provided until resolution.
Our standard SLA (without service credits) focuses on rapid response, transparency and remediation rather than financial penalties. Following any outage, customers receive a post-incident report detailing the impact, root cause, corrective actions and preventative measures.
Where required, SLAs under specific customer contracts can include service credits aligned to agreed availability thresholds. - Approach to resilience
-
To provide a high system availability the following measures are in place: Dual data centre environment with the option to operate from a single data centre or with the load shared across both data centres. Duplicate infrastructure at each data centre. Resilient firewalls in a HA pair. Resilient hardware with no single point of failure. Resilient networking with no single point of failure. Realtime data replication between data centres on a storage device level
- Support contracts in place with key Suppliers. 24/7 support cover - Outage reporting
-
Service availability is continuously monitored, with automated alerts generated for service degradation or outages. When an issue is detected, it is logged in our service desk and assessed by our operations team. Customers are notified via email for any incident that may impact service availability or performance, including updates on progress and resolution.
Major incidents are managed under our incident response process, with regular status updates issued until resolution.
Following restoration, affected customers receive a post-incident report detailing the nature of the outage, impact, root cause, corrective actions taken and any preventative measures implemented.

- Vulnerability management approach
-
We operate a formal vulnerability management process aligned to ISO 27001 and PCI DSS. Potential threats are assessed through continuous monitoring, scheduled internal and external vulnerability scanning (including Qualys and Nessus), and risk-based review of findings.
Sources include vendor security advisories, CVE feeds, industry alerts and penetration test reports. Vulnerabilities are triaged by severity and business impact, with critical issues prioritised for immediate remediation. Patches are tested in non-production environments and deployed via controlled change management, typically within days for high-risk issues. All actions are tracked, verified and auditable. - Protective monitoring type
- Supplier-defined controls
- Protective monitoring approach
-
We operate centralised logging and monitoring across servers, networks and applications, with audit logs capturing access attempts, configuration changes and anomalous activity.
Automated alerts and regular reviews identify potential compromises such as unauthorised access, unusual behaviour or system failures. Events are classified as informational, warning or exception and correlated to detect security incidents.
Suspected compromises are immediately escalated through our Information Security Event and Incident Response procedures. High-risk incidents trigger activation of the Incident Response Team, enabling containment, investigation and recovery, typically within minutes to hours depending on severity. - Incident management type

Incidents are assessed, prioritised and escalated to the Incident Response Team where required. We provide clear incident communications and post-incident reports to affected customers, detailing impact, root cause, remediation actions and preventative measures.
