Ever thought about how huge businesses manage to take care of so many calls? From small scale businesses through large businesses, the backbone of a business phone system is their PBX, or "Private Branch Exchange." From the rudimentary days of the old plug-in, manually operated switchboard systems, to the modern computer controlled business phone systems of today - it's more than just a means of communication - the PBX is how things get done. Let's have a look at what it takes to bring this technology into your business, or upgrade its current system.

It isn't like selecting your long distance provider or mobile phone. In those markets, the options are limited and it's mostly one size fits all.

But a PBX is definitely an completely different decision. Organizations have numerous different needs and specific goals with regards to communications. Features can make or break your office telephone system, influencing your ability to scale with long term future needs and expansion, your ability to leverage the strength of the net in your communications network (with technology such as Voice over ip,) and your capacity to stay bulletproof and protected from services outages, with things such as power supply back up UPS systems as well as remote management capacities. With your PBX playing such a vital role, let's take a look at a thing or two which you might need to take into account.

Employee salaries are the price of doing business. However, paying someone just to answer phones, or taking time away from an otherwise skilled employee to perform this menial task is really a waste of funds. You'll be glad to know that most of the same features can be taken care of by many of the business phone systems these days, and usually can do it better than a human. At the most basic level, these "Auto Attendant" features includes options such as allowing the caller to navigate a (potentially huge) menu system, reach specific extensions or access information recordings. Maybe someday we'll even have a PBX that will brew a pot of coffee...

More interesting are auto-dial capabilities, which can be used to provide a wide array of useful functions. At the most basic level, many of us associate PBX auto-dialing with robo-calls, or telemarketing. However, the systems can do much more than that, with tasks like sending text messages to cell phones automated for informative personal, departmental, or company-wide alerts and notices. Recordings or messages can be delivered as well, and many packages even provide text to speech for reading messages to the recipient, such as crucial e-mails.

Cisco Systems have the reputation for being one of the leaders in networking for years now. Having been known as one of the "four horsemen of the internet," for their powerful and stable routing devices, the same attention to detail is apparent in their PBX systems. With a focus on security and stability, they are a popular choice among many businesses, large and small.

The Cisco "Unity" line of products are a popular choice, for delivering expandability at many business sizes, and for meeting a wide variety of needs. Another popular choice are their SPA-400 and SPA-9000 which can work in conjunction to provide precisely the kind of performance demanded by small businesses, at an affordable price point.

Modernizing your current system, or installing your first, it doesn't matter. Upgrading your business phone system to harness the power of the current offerings is a no-brainer. Delving into the multitude of features provided by modern telephony systems a huge edge in today's competitive world.
