With Blueface shutting down on October 22, 2024, thousands of businesses across Ireland face the real risk of losing access to essential phone services. If your business still relies on Blueface’s VoIP system, waiting until the last minute to make a switch could result in costly downtime, missed calls, frustrated customers, and serious loss of revenue.

In this article, we’ll walk you through what the Blueface closure means, how to transition smoothly, and why Yellowcom is the best Blueface alternative for Irish businesses.


What the Closure of Blueface Means for Your Business

When Blueface shuts down on October 22, 2024, all customers still on the platform will lose:

  • Inbound and outbound calling
  • Voicemail and call routing
  • Advanced features like CRM integrations and call recording
  • Internal communication reliability

For sectors like healthcare, legal, finance, retail, and professional services, this kind of outage can grind operations to a halt.


Why You Must Act Before the Blueface Shutdown

Migrating to a new VoIP provider isn’t an instant fix—it takes planning. Key steps include:

  • Porting your phone numbers
  • Setting up new handsets or softphones
  • Training your team on the new system
  • Testing call flows, voicemails, and CRM integrations

Waiting until mid-October could mean your business goes without phones for days or longer. Get started now to avoid downtime and disruption.
