It could make your head swim, looking over the wide array of options with today's business phone systems. Whether you're just entering the market, or a large business upgrading your business phone system to meet growing needs, the market has really expanded to meet today's demand for constant communication and collaboration.
You should ask yourself some questions: How much growth do you expect, and how long should the system continue to serve you? Would you benefit more from having it on site, or having a third party host it? What kind of infrastructure do you have in place already, and can you use it in the new system?
Answering some of these questions can be vital to getting the most out of the system. Let's look at one example of a key feature choice that could add a lot to your business's phone system, and far too often overlooked.
You really have to be prepared for anything, to run a successful business. It is a bit ironic to be considering cutting edge business phone systems, and realise that it's going to be driven by a power supply from a power grid engineered to the needs of the last century. Luckily many modern PBX systems come replete with their own integrated UPS (uninterruptible power supply") to prevent this from leaving your business dead in the water, should the power go out. Even in the event of a blackout, the backbone of your business will remain functional, taking calls as usual.
Modern software has seen a flood of high quality open-source development, and the PBX market is no exception. The "Asterisk" project is a suite of high powered, feature rich software PBX tools, very popular with many businesses. The software runs on a standard PC, along with specialized interface cards to connect you to the outside phone system (including everything from standard phone lines, through ISDN or T1 lines.) Features are rich, including robo-dialing, auto-operator menu systems, voicemail, voice over IP, and much more.
Of course this doesn't come without downsides. You'll either need to administer all of this yourself, or hire an expert to setup and administer the system for you. With the full features of the suit, also comes the process of installing it.
"Can you hear me now?" isn't something you want your customers or employees to have to utter. Making sure you're prepared to deal with any communications needs that may crop up is serious demand of modern business. Your selection of a business phone system will ensure that you're not only able to keep voice communications flowing, but will also allow seamless integration with other modern technology, such as email and text messaging.
