Hosted PBX: Better Than the Real Thing

Have you ever heard of a system called known as PBX? That stands for Private Branch Exchange. “Well what is PBX?” I hear you asking. PBX is the internal phone system that companies often had in their own office buildings. You know like in those old movies, or as see in the show Mad Men, where the company has a PBX to handle their internal phone network, and keep things running smoothly on the inside, as well as between them and the outside regular phone exchange system.

The PBX system brought in many new features as the technology advanced. They could do things like; auto dialing, call blocking, call forwarding, conference calls, music on hold, voicemail and many other things. Having a PBX became essential for doing business, making sure you could maintain productivity and growth at the same time. PBX had revolutionized the way businesses communicated internally and externally. And now internet technology has revolutionized PBX!

With data networks and the internet becoming increasingly important to businesses, it only made sense that they would utilize that technology to enhance PBX, since it was essentially another system for handling data. What we have now from this advancement, is the Hosted PBX. Think of all the features and more of the original hardware based PBX, but without the expensive, space consuming, power hungry hardware! Hosted PBX offers you a software solution, that allows your business to benefit from all the features of a PBX system, while all the hardware is maintained offsite by your service provider!

Hosted PBX can work through the internet using VOIP to work with your own systems at your location, or any and all of your locations if you’ve got many. And Hosted PBX can present the same number for all out going calls from any of your operating locations. Hosted PBX provides the flexibility you need to do business in the best way possible for you. Hosted PBX can also be easily scaled to the size of your business, you only get the services you need and don’t pay for the things you don’t, and when you do need those extra services Hosted PBX will totally be able to accommodate you.

Now is the time for you to be working on a Hosted PBX system!
