Cheap Small Business Telephone Systems

Don’t Buy a Box

A decade ago if you were looking to purchase a business telephone system you would see pictures of business telephones and a base station (often just called the Box). This box would contain all of the configuration information about how your calls are handled and it would connect your handset extensions to the outside world using phone lines based on one copper line coming into your office for each telephone number you have. This technology is now considered old.

Your Telephone Numbers are Now Virtual

Telephone numbers are now services that are separate to copper lines coming into your office. This means you can

  • take your telephone numbers with you if you move,
  • port your telephone numbers away from expensive service providers like Telstra, and
  • operate a business across Australia by having your team working from home!

The connection to each business is now the ADSL broadband service which enables several calls to be made, digitally, at the same time. Most independent consultants have an excellent broadband service so if you do decide to operate a business with your staff or contractors working from their own home you can.

Your Business Telephone System is also Virtual

broadband1When your main telephone number is called by a customer it can ring on several extensions at the same time, nothing unusual about that. But with a VoIP Business Telephone System those handset extensions can be located anywhere in Australia, or even across the world.

If calls are unanswered they can be handled in ways that connect your staff no matter where they are:

  • a voice mail message can be left on a handset for your staff to check when they arrive back at their home office,
  • calls can be diverted from their desktop phone to their mobile,
  • voice mail messages can be emailed to your staff
  • voice mail messages can be emailed to a central reception
  • calls can be diverted to a virtual answering service

Where’s the Local Technician

VoIP-IT-Consultant-smallBusiness Telephone Systems require highly skills technicians who perform these tasks regularly. When a business telephone system was a box in the office you could find these telephone technicians close by, but networking and IT support is changing and many IT consultants now focus on providing network and workstation support for local businesses.

With a CloudPBX business telephone system everything is managed in the cloud and that means support, configuration, backup, continuity of service, all of these things are handled by dedicated telephone system specialists in the cloud.

The Box is Now CloudPBX

It doesn’t matter who your Internet Service Provider (ISP) is as long as you have a good quality business grade Internet service. Just like many hosted systems such as those listed below, your business telephone system is also now in the cloud with CloudPBX:

  • Salesforce
  • Xero Accounting Software
  • Internet banking
  • Google Apps for business
  • and now, virion business telephone systems

One of the MOST Powerful features of Cloud PBX and hosted telephone systems is that your end point, answering point or handset can be a “soft phone” application installed on your mobile device. Some of the benefits include:

  • You already have a device that staff can use
  • Connection to your WiFi network is already done
  • Configuration is quick and easy
  • The software is part of the Cloud PBX solution so you don’t need to rely on another supplier or IT person to get help if you experience issues.
