About Us

At Estech Systems, Inc. (ESI), we're all about making business communication easy. Whether you need cloud or on-premises phone systems, we've got you covered with high-performance solutions that are not only easy to use but also uniquely integrated.

Based in the heart of Plano, Texas, we're privately-held by a bunch of tech enthusiasts who've been at it since 1987. With over 400,000 phone systems sold and three million phones making connections nationwide, we know a thing or two about keeping conversations flowing.

What sets us apart? Well, we were pioneers in creating the first-ever combined telephone and voicemail system. Plus, we were trailblazers in building purely IP-based business communications systems. Patents? Yep, we've got those too – our products boast some pretty unique designs and capabilities. But it's not just about the tech lingo; we're here to support real-world applications. Our solutions are not just practical; they're downright effective.

While you may not hear our name as much as some competitors, we've stood toe-to-toe for more than three decades because we know how to deliver technology that helps our customers thrive. If you're looking for a communication partner that understands your unique needs, ESI is the name to remember.
