Looking for A Reason to Swap your Old PBX For a VOIP Hosted PBX - How About Eight Great Reasons!
By admin | June 24, 2008
1.Lower CAPEX Costs: Buying a traditional phone system is like
buying a new car, it significantly depreciates the day you place it in
service. Plus, you own a piece of equipment that you’ll have to one day
replace. You can put that money to better use by spending less up-front by
intstalling a VoIP Hosted PBX system.
2.A VoIP Hosted PBX is Dynamically Scalable: Up-size and Down-size
on the fly. VoIP Hosted PBX Service lets you buy the exact number of
users you need right now - later you can add users when you actually need
them. This helps preserve capital in comparison to guessing what size
PBX system you need to buy today to support the number of users you
think you’ll have in 3 - 5 years.
3.A VoIP PBX Significantly Reduces Depreciation Losses: Traditional
PBX systems depreciate almost 70% the day you take them out of their
box. With a VoIP Hosted phone service, you won’t have to worry about
depreciation since you’re not purchasing equipment.
4.A VoIp Hosted PBX is
Cheaper, Easier to Maintain and Update: Moves, Add’s and Changes no longer
require on-site changes to your phone system. Most VoIP Hosted PBXs can
be remotely configured by the vendor, thus the flexibility to add,
change, delete or move users within hours. Your expenses will be reduced by
eliminating costly monthly maintenance contracts or the high labor cost
required to have a tech onsite for every change you need.
5.A VoIP Hosted PBX Uses Non-Proprietary Components: When you buy a
traditional PBX phone system, you’re locking your company into a long
term commitment to a proprietary architecture that may or may not keep pace with technological changes. Bottom line, you are betting your
company’s future that the proprietary technology will remain compatible with evolving
industry standards.
In the future, there’s a good chance with a
traditional PBX you’ll be at the manufacturer’s mercy for repair and expansion
since only their parts will work with your purchase. Make sure your
VoIP Hosted PBX system works with multiple phone manufacturers. So if you
decide to move to a different system, a forklift upgrade won’t be
necessary.
6.A VoIP System Eliminates Technology Obsolescence: Since you’re
not purchasing a phone system, you don’t have to worry about the
equipment becoming obsolete. Updates and new features are automatically
available to you with REIGN-FREE Hosted PBX service.
7.Disaster Recovery/ Emergency Protection: A hosted PBX product
will protect your company’s calling infrastructure the same way you
protect your website and email - with specialized, secure off-site hosting.
Make sure if you are considering a VoIP hosted PBX that the vendor
provide security and redundancy so you don’t have to worry about the
physical requirements and support of your phone system.
8.Improved Features for Improved Productivity: Most enterprise VoIP
Hosted Voice service providers include advanced calling features that
are not available with traditional phone systems. Features that will
improve the way you control your calling, like Visual Voicemail, Unique
DID’s, Find-Me/Follow-Me, Click-to-Call and Outlook Integration.
