Determining if it’s the right moment to transition your business phone system to a cloud-based solution is crucial, especially if your current system struggles with capacity, needs frequent fixes, or lacks vendor support. However, even if your current system functions adequately, you might be overlooking opportunities to enhance productivity and reduce communication expenses with modern hosted PBX solutions.
A prime illustration is AireSpring’s updated Cloud Hosted IP PBX, AirePBX version 2.0. This system seamlessly merges your stationary and mobile communication channels across various devices and company locations, addressing the common issue of smartphones being excluded from traditional PBX systems. Businesses with branches or those expanded through acquisitions often grapple with a collection of distinct phone systems, complicating management.
Understandably, telecom managers can feel restricted when dealing with outdated systems limited to basic PSTN (Public Switched Telephone Network) calls. This reliance on the PSTN as a common denominator can hinder access to contemporary calling features and lead to unnecessary expenses when data network utilization could be more cost-effective.
Similar to other hosted VoIP solutions, AirePBX alleviates the burden of managing your phone network by shifting it to a specialized service cloud. With hosted PBX, on-site equipment is minimized, eliminating the need for a physical PBX and extensive wiring. Traditional phone lines and trunks for external calls become obsolete as everything operates within the cloud. Your system simplifies to phones connected directly to your LAN, complemented by an on-premise enterprise-grade session border controller for streamlined VoIP and data traffic management.
What functionalities can you anticipate with a hosted solution? AirePBX provides superior HD voice quality surpassing typical phone capabilities, along with a comprehensive auto-attendant feature. This empowers even small enterprises to project a professional image without the cost of a dedicated receptionist. Mid-call device switching becomes seamless – transfer calls from your desk phone to your smartphone as you leave, ensuring uninterrupted conversations. Naturally, you gain access to advanced call routing, find me/follow me, simultaneous ring, caller ID, call forwarding, call park, call transfer, conferencing, fax-to-email, unified visual voicemail, three-way calling, toll-free numbers, virtual extensions, and the convenience of online management.
While attractive, you might wonder about phone upgrade expenses. Rest assured, AirePBX includes sophisticated IP desk phones and the session border controller at no additional cost, along with complimentary professional on-site installation. You pay a straightforward per-seat monthly fee based on active phone lines or “seats.” Scaling up is simple, and you only pay for what you use, providing unparalleled business agility.
Considering cost savings, AireSpring projects potential savings of up to 50% compared to conventional phone services by transitioning your PBX or Key System to the cloud.
