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 upgrading your business phone system to meet growing needs, the choices have never been wider and the options have never been more impressive.
You should ask yourself some questions: What sort of internet connectivity does your PBX need? 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 finding the perfect fit for your business, and its PBX. To help you find those answers, here's some food for thought...
One of the most overwhelmingly popular features to appear in business phone systems over the last few years is the integration of voice over IP, or VoIP technology. On the local level, this allows you to use your computer network to manage and route calls. At wider scales, you can leverage the same technology to link up with remote locations, 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.
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.
The sheer power and flexibility delivered by computer driven phone systems, like the modern business PBX, can do wonders for your business. But each business has unique needs and demands, and there is really no one size fits all solution. It's my hope that some of the information above will help you determine what will really benefit you in a business phone system.
