Choosing a business phone system can be a daunting chore. Whether you're just entering the market, or upgrading your business phone system to meet growing needs, the market has really expanded to meet today's demand for constant communication and collaboration.
It's not like deciding on your long distance carrier or cell phone. In those markets, the options are limited and it's mostly one size fits all.
But a PBX is an entirely different decision. Businesses have many different needs and specific desires when it comes to communications. Features can make or break your PBX system, determining your ability to scale with future needs and expansion, your ability to leverage the power of the internet in your communications network (with technologies like VoIP,) and your ability to remain bulletproof and immune to services outages, with things like battery backup UPS systems and remote administrative capabilities. To give you an idea of just how crucial these features can be, consider how your business is impacted by this:
These days, the internet does just about everything. Why not take advantage of voice over IP to link together your business phone system? It's one of those little modern technological wonders which can really provide a huge boon to your business. A huge benefit of this is the ability to use your computer network to manage and route calls. At wider scales, you can leverage the same technology to transfer calls between your offices or employees around the world. You can even link to existing SIP technology, allowing you to place all your business's calls through inexpensive, reliable internet means.
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.
Rather than run this yourself, you an also opt for devices powered by Asterisk, of which many can be found. This can give you many of the rapid development, security, and plugin benefits of Asterisk, without the chore and hassle of trying to install and manage the software on a computer, yourself.
No one can say for certain how their business will grow over the coming years. One thing is certain though, your choice of business phone system will be one of the crucial factors in shaping those coming years of expansion. The PBX forms the nervous system, the core of all your business dealings. Without choosing a powerful and business phone system though, that nervous system is left lacking, and your business crippled. Power and expandability are critical in finding the PBX that's the right fit for you.
