Business Phone Systems - Cloud, UCaas, VOIP & More
More than half of businesses are expected to adopt cloud unified communications as a service for their business phone systems (UCaaS/hosted PBX) by 2022, surpassing premises-based PBX solutions. This reflects a shift to the cloud by businesses of all sizes for their communication solutions and business phone systems.
Definition
Cloud/Hosted Telephony, which is also referred to as, Unified Communications as a Service (UCaaS) is a phone system solution where the service provider owns and manages the core phone system platform, which is in a secure data center, and connects to your business via a data connection, typically an Internet circuit. It’s a more cost-effective, multi-functional, and flexible alternative to a premise-based phone system.
Reduced Costs
Simplified Connectivity for all Users
Whether all users are in a single location, or distributed amongst many offices, domestically or internationally, or work remotely, a UcaaS, solution unifies all uses, on a common platform, and communicating with any users is as simple as if they were in the same location.
Scalability
Predicting growth is challenging, which is why having a phone system that scales at your pace presents a great advantage. Hosted VoIP is designed to be highly scalable and easy to expand, allowing you to seamlessly add or reduce new phones and increase or decrease bandwidth requirements when needed.
