Other than physical desk phones, all other infrastructure is housed at a separate location. This has several advantages: high level disaster recovery, mobility, and flexibility to name a few. When it comes to disaster recovery, you are taking advantage of scale, with high availability, redundant telephone connectivity and global infrastructure as a single business it is hard to compete. Hosting your phone system in the cloud allows you to have peace of mind regarding your business phones and still get the feature rich experience for your end users.
SIDE NOTE: A good partner will also build in additional security related to your connectivity by utilizing dual circuit management and SD-WAN technology.
Under a standard cloud phone system agreement, support, dial-tone (phone company bills), upgrades with new features and phones are usually included in your fixed monthly cost. This significantly reduces the complexity of predicting unforeseen costs related to replacing equipment or paying staff to repair your system.
With traditional phone systems, organizations had to spend an arm and a leg to get the enterprise grade features they desired. In today’s telephony environment, organizations of all sizes can experience the benefits of high end telephony features through a reasonable fixed monthly cost. Additionally, as they grow, adding on additional features to fit new business directions is as simple as adding licenses and clicking “apply”. Lastly, rather than scheduling exhaustive upgrades that take up time and resources, cloud phone systems are generally always up to the latest software version as upgrades are pushed virtually on the back end.
