With the launch of 3CX China, 3CX is ready to offer forward-thinking Chinese businesses a scalable and cost-effective communication solution localised and adapted to their unique needs. In brief, here’s what we’ve been doing over the last couple of years:

  • 3CX China office offering a local, Mandarin-speaking Sales & Support team across the Greater China region.
  • iOS & Android apps to meet local regulations so that they can be listed in China marketplaces and support PUSH:
    • China does not allow Call KIT so we’ve adapted our app accordingly by developing a special iOS app using PUSH notifications. This will be released along with update 6 in the coming days.
    • Android app for Huawei. This allows for PUSH support in China.
  • Apps & Integrations ahead - watch this space for details
    • WeChat, the most popular IM product in China
    • Local VoIP providers: China Telecom, China Unicom, and China Mobile
    • Local Cloud providers: Alibaba, Tencent, and Huawei
    • Local AI like Deepseek and Ali Qwen

It’s the advent of a new era for Chinese businesses looking to fully own and manage their communications systems & data with an established and reliable high-end, advanced communications solution.

It’s an exciting chapter in our history. In 2022, the total number of micro, small and medium-sized enterprises in China exceeded 52 million. With local and foreign companies of 250+ people running into several millions in China, there's a significant opportunity for 3CX to leverage its long standing product knowledge in the mid-sized space. In particular we will focus on industries such as manufacturing, IT high tech and hospitality - all of which require manageable, reliable communications infrastructure.

Chinese Local Cloud & SIP Trunk Providers

The 3CX China team are already engaging with local providers facilitating an opportunity to form closer collaboration with local reseller partners as well as local Telco/Cloud providers, including AliCloud, Huawei Cloud and Tencent Cloud - and PMS/CRM vendors too, to leverage local expertise and networks, which are critical for navigating China’s unique business environment and regulatory framework.

3CX China Supporting Confidential Video & AI Data

As part of its global expansion strategy strengthening existing and new partnerships, 3CX China offers access to a massive and growing market with localized support and customization facilitated by a local team. Nick Galea, CEO and Founder of 3CX said:

“With China being one of the largest and fastest-growing telecommunications markets in the world - driven by its vast population and increasing demand for advanced communication technologies and own video and AI data management - establishing a local entity in the progressive city of Shenzhen, China allows 3CX to directly tap into this market, offering its products and services to businesses and organizations across the country. And whilst I respect the fact that we can’t sell to the Government of China, I’m confident our presence will enhance sales opportunities and build stronger relationships with local channel partners and non-Governmental independent large foreign and local enterprises.”

Meet the 3CX China Office Team

Efforts have been ongoing for more than 2 years in preparation to enter the Chinese market. It has involved fulfilling strict requirements as well as an investment in understanding how 3CX needs to evolve for the Chinese market.

We’ve been guided by our Shenzhen-based, 3CX China CEO - Shawn Shen - a business veteran with almost 20 years of experience in the VoIP industry.
