Cisco to Zoom Phone Migration (CUCM)

Retire your Cisco on-prem PBX and move to cloud Zoom Phone, with CUCM dial plans, SIP gateways, IVR, call queues, e911 and devices rebuilt and validated. No more on-prem hardware to patch and maintain.

Cisco CUCM to Zoom Phone migration
Quick answer

Yes, you can migrate from Cisco to Zoom Phone. Codimite, a Zoom Certified Integrator, moves Cisco Unified Communications Manager (CUCM) and legacy on-prem PBX to cloud Zoom Phone, extracting your dial plan, route patterns, IVR, hunt groups, voicemail and e911 and rebuilding them natively, with numbers ported by LNP in zero-downtime windows. The value is a clean cloud rebuild that retires SIP gateways, SBCs and PBX hardware, not a fragile lift-and-shift.

Why migrate

Why teams move from Cisco to Zoom Phone

Retire on-prem hardware

No more CUCM clusters, voice gateways, SBCs or PBX appliances to patch, license and maintain; Zoom Phone is fully cloud.

Consolidation & cost

If you already run Zoom Meetings or Team Chat, Zoom Phone joins the same Zoom Workplace platform, collapsing Cisco UC licensing, smart-net contracts and a separate vendor.

One platform, one admin

Calls, meetings, chat and whiteboard under a single cloud admin console and identity provider, instead of CUCM/Unity admin plus your Zoom stack.

AI Companion across the stack

Call summaries, voicemail transcription and next-step prompts from the same assistant that handles your meetings and chats.

Resilience & scale

Cloud redundancy and remote-work readiness without maintaining on-prem failover, gateways or VPN-tethered phones.

What we migrate

What we migrate from Cisco

Cisco / CUCM element Rebuilt in Zoom Phone Notes
DIDs & main numbers Ported via LNP Carrier port in a scheduled window; zero downtime
Dial plan & route patterns Zoom Phone routing Partitions, CSS and translations reconstructed
SIP trunks / voice gateways Zoom carrier or BYOC/SIP Gateways & SBCs decommissioned or repurposed
IVR / auto-attendant Native auto-attendant trees Menus and business hours rebuilt and tested
Hunt groups / call queues Zoom Phone call queues Routing, overflow and agents reconstructed
Unity voicemail & greetings Zoom voicemail Greetings re-recorded/re-uploaded; boxes provisioned
e911 / emergency addresses Dispatchable locations Registered and tested per site
Cisco IP phones Re-provisioned or swapped Supported models re-homed; others replaced with certified devices
Users & identities Zoom users Mapped to your IdP / SSO

Dial-plan complexity, site count and carrier port timelines are the main schedule drivers, confirmed during the assessment.

Our process

Our Cisco to Zoom Phone migration process

  1. 1

    Assess

    We audit your CUCM/Unity config, dial plan, route patterns, SIP trunks, gateways, devices and e911 footprint, and confirm what ports and what gets rebuilt.

  2. 2

    Design

    We map the dial plan, routing and locations to Zoom Phone, decide Zoom carrier vs BYOC/SIP, and prepare LNP porting paperwork.

  3. 3

    Build & hybrid run

    Zoom Phone is provisioned in parallel with CUCM (extensions, IVR, queues, voicemail and e911) with hybrid routing during transition.

  4. 4

    Pilot

    A pilot site validates call quality, routing, devices and e911 before any numbers move.

  5. 5

    Port & cut over

    Numbers cut over site by site in scheduled LNP windows with rollback ready; zero downtime per number.

  6. 6

    Decommission & hypercare

    Retire CUCM clusters, gateways and SBCs, then provide adoption support and 24/7 cover through the cutover.

FAQs

Cisco to Zoom Phone migration FAQ

Can you migrate Cisco CUCM to Zoom Phone?

Yes. We migrate CUCM and other Cisco on-prem PBX systems, rebuilding dial plan, route patterns, IVR, hunt groups, voicemail and e911 natively in Zoom Phone and validating before cutover.

What happens to my SIP trunks and gateways?

We move you to Zoom's cloud carrier or BYOC/SIP trunking, then decommission or repurpose voice gateways and SBCs, removing on-prem PBX hardware from your estate.

Will there be downtime?

No. Zoom Phone runs in parallel/hybrid with CUCM and numbers port in scheduled LNP windows, so sites cut over wave by wave with no service gap.

Do my Cisco IP phones still work?

Many Cisco handsets can be re-provisioned or swapped for Zoom-certified devices; we assess each model in the device workstream.
