Rainmakers VoiP information - Cisco/Netmedic solution 


Dear Reader,


Have you evaluated how your company can take advantage of Cisco VoiP technology? (Voice over IP - replaces PBX phones with systems that send voice over your data network).  Most experts agree that it is only a matter of time before this telephony technology obsoletes* traditional PBX phone systems (according to the Gartner ... not a matter of if - but when businesses will replace PBX with VoiP technology*). The reasons are based on simple math!

 

Consider these advantages of Cisco VoiP for you: 

·                      Low cost of ownership – no need to purchase new PBX every 10 years, just upgrade server and buy any VoiP standard phone when upgrade/expansion needed.

·                      Consolidate voice and data networks into one more feature rich and stable data network that will handle all your voice and data needs

·                      Huge savings on long distance charges and inter-office/facility connects on data network. No charge for WAN connected facilities inter-communications – long-distance is a little over a penny a minute to anyplace in the USA. Even small offices can take advantage of these reductions

·                      Easier management and support of your systems via a web portal. Set up new phones in a matter of seconds, plug it into any network connection and the extension will follow it. Lower support costs and stress levels!

·                      Support growth and expansion (and moves) at lower costs and stress levels. Simply install a router and plug phones – no PBX or analog lines needed!

·                      Provide “One Face to the World” while lowering reception costs and hassles. Accept calls in one location for your whole corporation. Transfer between locations just by using extensions.  A centrally managed corporate directory is immediately available on a phone when it is hooked into the system.

·                      Lower migration costs to replace your existing PBX. Install site-by-site while your old system is operational – remove your “old box” when phased installation is complete (no need for “Big Bang” crises and costs).

·                      Improve morale and support the advantages of a “virtual network” by allowing staff to work from home or the corner Starbucks, etc. (Same connectivity as if in corner office).

·                      Resolve E911 regulations compliance while getting all the above benefits.

·                      The fact is this… Major PBX vendors claimed 5 years ago that VoiP was never going to have the quality to compete – today all the Major PBX vendors are announcing VoiP offerings because the marketplace is shifting for all of the above reasons!
