Why Voip Business Telephone Systems Are Becoming More Popular

By Earlene McGee


Astonishing advances in technology has seen to it that every business, regardless of how small or large, can compete in the global market place. Nevertheless, new and exciting opportunities also bring new challenges. Competition is fierce and consumers are presented with more choices than ever before. Vancouver BC entrepreneurs have quickly learned that they need sophisticated business telephone systems if they want to remain on the cutting edge.

Great strides have been made in telecommunications. Modern PABX installations offer users a host of features that allow them to communicate effectively and reliably. Users can transfer calls, place callers on hold and even conduct conference calls. In many cases callers can exercise options by listening to a menu of available actions and then get transferred to an appropriate person or department by simply pressing a button.

Some communication experts are of the opinion that the PABX has reached the end of its useful life. Its most important drawbacks is the fact that users have to be at a specific location and within reach of a specific instrument if they wish to receive and make calls. This is a serious drawback because it limits the ability of employees to be where they are most needed and useful.

Another important drawback of PABX installations is that they are expensive to install and to maintain. Large businesses need an installation at every branch or site. This means that multiple installations must be maintained. If a single unit is down, communication across the board is negatively influenced. Multiple installations also necessitate employing an operator at every site and branch. This can be very costly.

VoIP service providers say that their solutions overcome all the drawbacks of PABX and that they offer features previously undreamed of. VoIP uses the internet as a communications platform and can therefore be used anywhere as long as there is access to the internet. The platform is hosted by the service provider, which means that the client always has access to the latest upgrades and features. Only one installation is required, regardless of how many remote sites the client have.

VoIP also offer significant savings. Many users have reported that they have saved up to fifty per cent of their previous communication bills. The cost of maintenance is also drastically reduced and even more money is saved by the fact that there is no need for an operator at every site or branch. Users are delighted by the fact that they can use a wide variety of devices to access the communication network.

VoIP also offer many features unmatched by traditional installations. Users can transfer calls from one site to another, even if the other site is geographically far away. This means that employees are able to move away from their desks without ever being out of touch. This leads to higher productivity and higher levels of customer satisfaction.

The ability to communicate reliably and from anywhere is an important advantage. VoIP offers this possibility. In addition, it allows users to be flexible regarding the devices they employ and it frees them to work from just about any location.
