What kind of Small Business Phone System is right for you?

There is no 'one size fits all' phone system for small companies. One small business could have really various telecoms requires to another, so you require to think about how you will be using your phone system. As soon as you recognise your small company needs, you can discover a phone system to fulfill them. It is crucial that you as the customer are conscious of the types of phone systems available and what they can do for your company.

There are 2 types of small company phone system services available to you:

Hybrid IP PBX System

A Hybrid phone system uses conventional digital or IP handsets with the latest IP technology; enabling you to take advantage of VoIP and SIP. Like standard phone systems, the "brains" of a Hybrid Phone System lie in next a box in your workplace, and all the handsets link back to this box.

Hybrid Phone Systems work over both the traditional copper phone network or the web. This means whether you have enough bandwidth to take advantage of VoIP & SIP innovation today, Hybrid Systems are 100% NBN all set. Hybrid Phone Systems also allow you to include functions and users as needed.

Another fantastic function of the Hybrid IP system is the ease of use for home/remote users. A Hybrid IP handset can be plugged into the web at a second place, and will immediately link back to the head office phone system. This enables seamless interaction, with the remote user able to work as if they remained in the office. The Hybrid system also has a cellular phone app ( comparable to Skype/Whatsapp) that links you to the office from your personal mobile phone, anywhere you are.

SpringCom Hosted System

A SpringCom hosted system, likewise referred to as a Cloud PBX phone system is an IP phone system where all the telephone call are made using the internet. Great bandwidth was traditionally something just large services might access, but the NBN rollout has actually opened numerous chances for our customers, particularly when it concerns small company phone systems.

The "brains" of a SpringCom hosted phone system reside in the cloud, so each handset only needs to be linked to the web to be part of the phone system. Hosted phone systems are feature loaded, and whether you have 1 handset or 1000, you get precisely the same features. Much of our small business clients have actually found them to be really cost effective solutions due to the fact that they do not require much, if any in advance investment in hardware.

A fantastic function of a hosted system is that as long as an web connection is available the area of the handsets is not important. Remote and home users can call from anywhere, using the very same telephone number as though they were in the main office.

For more on the differences in between hybrid phone systems and cloud phone systems and which is the very best for you have a look at this article.

The choice is ultimately yours, so call our friendly professionals and let us help you discover the perfect service for your organization.

How will the NBN affect my Small Business Phone System?

NBN voice is the process of running VoIP over an NBN web connection. VoIP has been around practically a decade, and it runs calls online, much like Skype. To utilise NBN voice you can either utilize a Hybrid PBX, utilizing SIP trunking or a cloud based phone system, which uses cloud technology to make VoIP calls. VoIP calls can operate on NBN and other Fiber connections, and sometimes over ADSL for a little workplace.

The big modification with the transfer to the NBN for small office phone systems is that you will just require a single internet connection to make and get calls. All of your communications, consisting of telephone call, will run over the web ( through VoIP and SIP) instead of analogue copper phone lines.

Many consumers have been informed that they will be needed to entirely update and upgrade their existing analogue phone systems. This is not real. NBN voice can run on older style phone systems - you merely need to purchase an analogue telephone adapter (ATA) to enable this. The ATA adapter sits in between the old phone system and the brand-new NBN internet connection, converting the data so that your organization can run NBN voice.

Speak with our friendly specialists if you have any questions about how the NBN will impact your small business phone system.

Just how much are Phone Systems?

The expense of a small company phone system truly depends on the kind of system, brand and the number of handsets. With Infiniti you can buy outright, lease or lease. If you're getting a Hybrid option then a 4 handset system might begin as low as $20-30 each week depending upon the brand name.

This cost would consist of setup, setup and user training. An 8 handset system might cost $30-40 per week. Twice the size does not equate to two times the price. Alternatively, hosted options can be a lot more affordable as there is no pricey physical phone system to purchase and can start from just $15 per month.

What kind of phone lines should I have?

There is nobody finest phone line for each individual. Although many clients talk about VoIP and SIP as a way to save cash, the scenario varies from workplace to workplace. The money conserving aspect of VoIP truly depends on the number of phone lines you have and the kind of call you generally make. With a Hybrid system, you can have a mix of copper and VoIP lines. With a Cloud PBX system, all your calls run over the internet so you just require an web connection to make VoIP calls.

If the NBN is offered in your location, then moving to a Cloud Based PBX and using VoIP to make your calls is the way foward for your organization. If the NBN is not offered a Hybrid solution using traditional copper phone lines may be the very best choice for now, and you can easily migrate to the NBN when it rolls out in your area.

The number of phone lines should my small business have?

The number of phone lines that your small company needs will vary. Consider how many concurrent telephone call you wish to be able to make/receive.

For small businesses where everybody isn't on the phone at the same time, then we generally follow a guide of 3 to one - 3 handsets, one line, six handsets, two lines, and so on. For small companies which require to make a lot of calls at the same time, such as real estate agents, then each user needs their own line.

If your small company has a lot of incoming call traffic then we recommend getting more phone lines than handsets. Unlike a common house phone that utilizes Telstra's call waiting service, small company phone systems do not have this function as requirement. Imagine that you have 2 personnel and only 2 phone lines. Now, if both personnel are currently making/receiving calls and another call comes through, the call is going to get through to an engaged tone. If you have three lines, the call will go through to the voicemail on the other line. By having a minimum of two lines you have the capability to not miss out on a call.

With standard copper phone lines each line provides you the ability to make/receive another call. With a VoIP/SIP Hybrid or Hosted Phone System all your calls will run through a single web connection making it hard to understand what constitutes a phone line. Put simply, each phone line in your phone system is a SIP license, and to get more phone lines you just need to add more SIP licenses to the phone system. These licenses enable you, the client, to have concurrent VoIP calls.

Should I have IP phone handsets or digital ones?

The main difference between a digital and IP handset is that a digital handset is a fraction more affordable than an IP handset. Both handsets have similar functions, with IP handsets offering a little extra performance.

Again, the ideal phone for you depends on your organization requirements. If you have a variety of people working from another location, or staff tend to move the handsets around the office, then IP handsets are right for you, as they instantly re-register back into the system when plugged in. With digital handsets, the handset sockets and areas should be programmed into the system by a professional.

As standard desk phones there are likewise cordless phones, however, if they were not developed particularly for your phone system then they will have really limited functionality, which is not ideal for organization! But there is another service - soft phone apps. A soft phone app is an app comparable to Skype that can be installed on your computer. Soft phone apps have all the performance of premium handsets without the need for hardware.

With all of these alternatives getting the right handsets for your small business phone system can be puzzling so give us a call to discuss your requirements!
