5 Reasons You Should Switch to a Hosted PBX Phone System

If you’ve been in the professional world for a few years now, you probably recall phone systems that required a ton of heavy equipment, a whole lot of wires, and possibly even a room by itself to hold everything. In the past, standard office phone systems were complicated and costly… until now. Vocalocity’s hosted PBX phone system, available exclusively to small business owners, is the next best thing in business communications.

Also known as Voice over Internet Protocol (VoIP) phone systems, a digital PBX (Private Business Exchange) phone is one that operates via the Internet. While this format experienced a few ‘hiccups’ of its own during the initial stages, it has since improved significantly. Today, businesses – both small and large – are witnessing firsthand the advantages of hosted PBX phone systems. At Vocalocity, we host all your equipment off-site, so you don’t have to bother with reserving a room especially for that reason.

The following five reasons explain why it’s time you switched to a hosted PBX phone system.

Reason #1: Affordable.

These days it seems everyone is pinching pennies in every which direction. And rightfully so – a down economy calls for smart decisions on spending. The same holds true for small businesses. A great way to cut cost is by switching to a hosted PBX phone system. Vocalocity only charges a flat rate for each user, so you don’t have to worry about time. Instead, we want you concerned with what matters most: growing your small business.

Reason #2: Portable.

For many small businesses, travel is a primary component of growth. More reliable than mobile phones, a hosted PBX phone system provides remarkable portability. If there’s broadband connection, there’s phone service. Simply plug your phone into your computer, and you can talk to anyone around the world. At Vocalocity, we bring the office to you.

Reason #3: No Equipment Necessary.

Perhaps one of the greatest benefits of Vocalocity’s phone services is the notion that heavy, bulky equipment and tangled wires are out of the picture. We host your equipment off-site, so you can enjoy more office space and hassle-free communication. Even better, you don’t have to lease equipment or fool with maintenance fees.

Reason #4: Speedy Set-Up.

Let’s face it: Setting up an office phone system can be quite time-consuming. Making the decision of which company you want to hire is, in and of itself, laborious. And once you make a phone call to purchase the service/plan, it takes time to set everything up. Vocalocity is different. Once you place a call, one of our VoIP consultants will begin set-up immediately. Additionally, if you decide you’d like upgrades for your hosted PBX phone system in the future, call us and they’ll be available on your phone.

Reason #5: One Bill.

This ties in with Reason #1. At Vocalocity, you must only concern yourself with one phone bill. There are no separate charges for long distance or additional features with hosted PBX phone systems – you pay a flat rate no matter what. This helps you maintain your budget and know what to expect every month. We’re focused on helping you succeed by offering services that you can afford.
