The modern IP PBX system has many advantages over the traditional telephone. It can streamline your communication and reduce your call cost as well.
Communication is the key to success in any business. Or it will be better to say that modern communication systems can play a crucial role in the success of a business. If you take IP PBX systems for example, you will find that the Internet telephony or VoIP calls outweigh the traditional phone system in investment, maintenance, and reliability.
Let’s compare the traditional phone with the modern VoIP phone system
- Set up
The traditional phone system was wired-based. You need to invest in dedicated copper wiring to set up the system. But the modern VoIP system requires no dedicated wiring. It is Internet-based telephony that runs on the cloud. The quick and hassle-free setup makes Internet telephony just perfect for your business needs.
- Call costs
IP PBX systems are more cost-effective than the traditional telephone system. Switching to modern telephony will not only improve your communication network but save you cost as well. The dollars saved on the call costs can be considered a profit and used for business expansion in the future.
- Allow hot desking and roaming
Hot desking is the term used for relocating your work desks according to your convenience. With VoIP, you can take your telephone wherever you go. You can even stay connected to your office while roaming. But the traditional telephone system won’t provide you with this liberty.
Just like the telephone system, you can also take advantage of video conferencing solutions. You need a software application like Zoom, Skype, or Google Meet to set up a system. The hardware you need to connect to your team on video includes cameras, speakers, and conferencing microphones. You can set the infrastructure in your conference room for Zoom or Skype meetings.
When it is meeting time, you can call all your team members on Zoom and conduct meetings. It is easier and safe as well. It was quite popular during the pandemic time but companies want to continue taking advantage of video conferencing in normal times as well. Meeting on Zoom or Google Meet saves time. But the biggest advantage of video conferencing is it helps in making meetings successful.
There is little need to worry about the hardware you need to set VoIP or video conferencing system. You won’t have any hassle in buying parts like network switches for your communication system. If you are still using the age-old telephone system, you are spending more money than needed on your telephone system.
