What is Hosted PBX & VoIP?

Hosted PBX (Private Branch Exchange) is the modern version of the traditional telephone closet. The new hosted, or “cloud,” model puts the brains of your phone closet into professionally maintained data centers, helping businesses like yours to transform their communications and improve productivity—without the need to purchase expensive, complex, depreciating phone system software and hardware. Your service providers manage and monitor your system 24x7, allowing you to focus on work.

 
VoIP refers to phone services that are accessible through a high-quality broadband connection. VoIP is typically more cost effective and scalable than traditional alternatives. With both Hosted PBX and VoIP, you and your team can work from the office, home, or on the road, or through your smartphone, all while utilizing your company’s communications solution to help maintain and uplift your image and brand.
 
Key Drivers for Moving to the Cloud
 

·   Less expensive than traditional phone systems
·   Better mobility to support remote office options
·   Connects multiple offices via single PBX vs. multiple disparate PBX
·   Helps drastically improve your communication processes and business productivity
·   Ability to quickly scale up or down
·   Future-proofed phone systems

·   Ease of use and ease of management
·   CAPEX vs. OPEX
  

Advantages of Hosted PBX

Noticing a consistent theme? Cost. Traditional Legacy systems cost more up front, and over time because users are reliant on their current phone system hardware. But, with hosted PBX and VoIP, you get a future-proofed phone system that continuously updates to provide an unmatched user experience.

Smaller Investment Upfront
With hosted PBX, you don’t need to purchase costly configurations—there’s no system to purchase, so there’s less money lost upfront.
Smaller Investment Over Time
You’ll retain more revenue each month, making hosted PBX a long-term cost saver.
Flexibility
Hosted PBX is easily upgradeable, helping to expand your business communications without the need for constant technical support or rewiring.
Mobility
Hosted PBX provides a solution for your employees who can now work from anywhere, whether they’re on their cell phones at home, or soft phones on their work computers.

Difference Between BTS BREEZE & a National VoIP Provider
 
They ship you the phones in a box, then you have to plug the phones in yourself. They call it plug and play, we call it plug and pray.
 
National VoIP providers DO NOT come onsite for end user or admin training.
 
Moves, Adds, Changes: National VoIP providers require you to handle this, where with a local provider like BTS BREEZE we take care of this on your behalf.
 
Main Differences are: The onboarding, onsite Installation/training and ongoing support included by BTS technician.
