Nada! 

Hosted phone systems and Cloud phone systems are exactly the same.  Cloud-based phone systems were originally coined Hosted Phone System or Hosted PBX because your service provider ‘hosted’ your phone system on your behalf while delivering voice over IP (VoIP) service, PBX applications, maintenance, and software upgrades virtually.

Today, the terminology has shifted to Cloud phone system or Virtual phone system since all of your phone system features, applications, and calling services are located "in the cloud".

Why Choose a Cloud Phone System?

If you’re a small business with budgetary concerns and do not want to make a large, upfront investment, then a Cloud-based telephone system is probably the best phone system solution for your company.  For a relatively small monthly cost, you’ll receive advanced PBX system applications (Voicemail, Music-on-Hold, Auto Attendant, etc.), nationwide calling services, phone numbers, faxing, and equipment rentals such as phones and a security router.  You’ll also always have the latest software and security enhancements-- which are automatically pushed out to your system as they become available. 

Cloud phone systems are the perfect solution for small businesses that want the flexibility to make their own PBX system changes on the go.  Cloud PBX systems include an online management portal so your office manager can perform basic admin tasks-- such as changing a mailbox extension or setting your holiday greeting-- anywhere, at any time from any web browser.
