As the pandemic continues to affect the way businesses operate, more organizations are looking for ways to maximize productivity while keeping a close eye on expenditures.
Businesses are examining their bottom lines, looking for ways to tackle increasing pressure to “lean out” their infrastructure and reconfigure business processes to target productivity, efficiency, and — importantly — flexibility.
One of the main drivers is the need for flexible communications abilities as more companies operate under a work-from-home or hybrid work environment.
With the hub of much business communication firmly centered around the business phone system, rethinking the way you approach your phone communications is an important first step toward better, faster, more efficient communications.
Until recently, many companies were mired by traditional or legacy phone systems with their associated high costs of hardware and maintenance.
With a legacy system, your phone was only one piece of the communication puzzle — for video conferencing, messaging, email, and other solutions, you had to turn to other technologies making it difficult to coordinate and manage all the systems.
Enter cloud-based phone systems – one of the best small business phone system choices due to the large number of advantages they offer for the small- and medium-sized business (SMB).
Cloud-based phone systems bring all the communication tools you use — email, instant messaging, video conferencing, and even live chat — into one intuitive platform.
With communication embedded in your widely used business application, your teams can streamline workflows and maximize productivity for even greater benefits.
Legacy phone systems can be difficult to install, maintain, and troubleshoot.
Cloud-based systems feature quick and easy setup and ongoing maintenance programs to ensure they stay operable and reliable. Updates and integrations are intuitive, requiring no special training and no extra implementation costs.
With a cloud-based phone system, paying for line-by-line service is a thing of the past. Employee access can be added — or deactivated — easily, allowing the system to scale up or down according to your needs.
And, in the event of a power outage where desk-based phones are unavailable, your business still has full-service communications ability through a mobile application to keep you connected with colleagues and customers.
Multiple data centers located in geographically diverse areas offer redundancy and additional reliability while ongoing VoIP network testing ensures you have clear voice quality and a clear connection when you need it.
