Traditional phone systems

Traditional small business phone systems were a mysterious box in the corner of the office that managed all the telephones that were connected to it – it managed the call handling features of how your phone system works.

[box type=”tick” size=”large” style=”rounded” border=”full”]These days most IT related services are moving to the cloud where they can be managed centrally from anywhere and so too is the PBX.[/box]

It’s often referred to as a Hosted/Managed/Cloud PBX and the benefits include:

Hosted in a secure telecommunications grade data centre
Redundancies and backups
Feature rich VoIP services

Cloud PBX Features

With hosted PBX’s you don’t need to buy expensive equipment, find a place to store it and make sure it is always up and running. CloudPBX is hosted in a commercial grade data centre that is managed by us so you can get all the latest VoIP functionality you want without the upfront capital costs. It also means you don’t need to find a local expert who understand this type of technology.

Auto Attendant – IVR

This is the most commonly requested functionality of a hosted PBX system because it makes a small business look bigger but also because it enables small and nimble businesses to have their calls answered in many different locations and by the right people.

Call Groups

This functionality enables several phones to ring when a particular department is chosen using an Auto Attendant and once again having your PBX in the cloud enables several people (in remote areas) phones ring, enabling great customer service.

Phone Extensions

An extension is an internal end point, a phone that can be accessed using the internal office phone system numbering regime as opposed to a telephone number (commonly called a DID – Direct Indial Number).

Remote Extensions

A very popular feature of the virtual CloudPBX is that all of your staff can be teleworkers connecting to your central telephone system and no one will know the difference. With a good Internet connection and a well configured business telephone system all your staff (including the remote workers) will be connected.

Call Forwarding and Diversion

Call Forward is the capability to have a call diverted to another number if the number that someone calls is either Busy or Not answered.

Call Transfer Methods

Call Transfer is the capability to transfer a caller that you are speaking to to another person (or telephone extension). You can also transfer callers to a telephone number outside of the extensions in your office.

Direct InDial Numbers (DID)

A Direct InDial number is a phone number. The main difference between a DID and anextension is the capability for customers to call a particular extension (telephone handset) from outside the company and get directly to the person at that extension. It’s a good way to offer excellent customer service to important clients.
