Granton Inc. (Headquarters: Shibuya-ku, Tokyo; CEO: Katsuo Imoto; hereinafter "Granton"), provider of the cloud PBX "03plus" that enables the use of fixed-line phone numbers on smartphones, is pleased to announce the launch of the "Presence Feature" on the 03plus app, softphone, and customer page starting April 28, 2026. The Presence feature allows teams using multiple IDs with 03plus to share each member's in-office/out-of-office status in real-time, making it easier to coordinate phone response support systems.
[Background of Launch]
03plus is used by a wide range of businesses, from freelancers and sole proprietors to small and medium-sized enterprises, as a cloud PBX that allows them to use fixed-line phone numbers on their smartphones. We have received numerous requests and feedback from customers using multiple IDs, such as "not knowing who is available to answer the phone, which makes call transfers difficult" and "having to handle calls without knowing the status of other members."
With the addition of this presence feature, it is now possible to understand the response status of team members in real-time on the app, realizing smooth call handovers and improved operational efficiency.
[Overview of Presence Feature]
The Presence feature allows for real-time sharing of team members' statuses, such as being in or out of the office.
Key features include:
- Changing your own status (In/Out) via the app, softphone, or customer page.
- Checking the status of other members via the app, softphone, or customer page.
- Customizing status names when away (e.g., "Out of office," "In a meeting," etc.).
About Status Settings:
- "In" status: 1 type (max 10 characters).
- "Out" status: Up to 5 types (each max 10 characters).
[Service Overview]
- Service: 03plus
- Launch Date: Tuesday, April 28, 2026
- Target Users: All existing 03plus users (No additional cost)
- How to use: Operations via the status icon in the upper right corner after updating to the latest version of the app or softphone. Changes and confirmations can also be made from the customer page.
[Features of 03plus]
03plus is a cloud PBX service that supports flexible working styles regardless of location or time. Since fixed-line numbers can be used on smartphones, business communication can be streamlined without being tied to an office environment.
1. Easy to Implement: 03plus requires no tedious contracts or installation work. Simply apply online and install the app to get local area codes such as 03 numbers in as little as 10 minutes.
2. Reduced Costs for Fixed Lines: 03plus starts at 1,280 yen per month, making it much more affordable than contracting a traditional landline.
3. Rich Optional Features: Multiple people can share one phone number, and it also supports sending and receiving faxes and handling calls from anywhere. It is packed with optional features to move business forward efficiently.
