What You Need to Know About Your Phone System in The Cloud: Hosted/Virtual PBX

cloudpbxNWMAP Featured service: Hosted/Cloud/Virtual PBX

If you don’t already know, or haven’t already switched, your business can likely benefit from a Hosted PBX right now! We help clients everyday learn about technology that will help them grow, cut costs, be more productive between employees and business operations. Hosted services such as Hosted PBX are no exception. You can get an amazing business phone system that meets and exceeds what you would expect from a traditional phone set-up. Since it’s all virtual, all you need are phones and an Internet connection.

What exactly is Hosted PBX?  “Hosted” simply refers to your business phone system being operated by your chosen provider. You don’t have any of the equipment (or worries) and maintenance or updates of software, etc.

Who can benefit? We’ve seen great benefits of this technology within small and medium-sized businesses. Can you imagine what level it takes them to when they have a superior telephone system without the costs of operating it on-site? Businesses can choose the number of lines, extensions, fax, and email preferences while the Voice-over-IP (VoIP) service provider manages the rest.

What else?

  • Saves money and time! We’ve saved our business clients up to 50% or more on bills, maintenance, and other telephone system related costs they had before.
  • Businesses who have multi-site locations or work-from-home employees are also benefitted by Hosted services.
  • With the ability to choose, this technology can grow with your business.
  • You (your business) only needs phone (s) and Internet connection.
  • All employees will be connected through email, fax, phone, etc.
  •  All the technology and abilities of an expensive phone system is all done virtually for you. Automated Attendant? Done. transfer calls? Of course…and much more.

Cloudy With a Chance of Suiting All Businesses (Cloud Technology)

Cloud technology isn’t another one-size-fits-all approach to a better way of doing business. It certainly is a universally applied solution, but one that means very different things to various types and sizes of business. The beauty of the Cloud is how it can fit into any size and virtually all types of businesses, which seems as if I’m contradicting what I’ve just mentioned (and the title of this post). But the difference is Cloud technology has several ways in which it can be utilized within a business- some are heavily dependent on it because it saves money, it’s functional to the start-up business or perhaps it’s the only way to go to connect remote employees or enhance communication between employees and clients on various devices. Both large and SMB’s are benefitting greatly, but only when they apply the Cloud in a way that fits their needs, as far as their crew is trained, how comfortable with the security available and put into place, and as much or as little of their business operating within the Cloud- that’s how businesses are doing it.

All businesses have affordable security technology available to them so they can utilize the BYOD experience (How? Ask us at NWMAP). Today it’s all about the strategy for how it can specifically work for a business. Helpful strategies include:

  • Deciding how to combine work and home calls etc, (i.e. transform a tablet into a desk phone- Yep, we can help you)!
  • What’s your priorities? Communication needs?
  • Security in place (i.e. in case an employee loses their tablet, we have wonderful Cloud security options).
  • Rules- it would be no fun if we didn’t mention rules! But part of the Cloud/BYOD revolution includes businesses having a clear understanding of their plans and strategies, which include guidelines for how the Cloud is used for their business.
