Top 5 Benefits of a Cloud PBX Phone System

Cloud PBX phone systems have many benefits for businesses of all sizes, especially for Small and Medium Businesess. So, if you’re tired of dealing with an unwieldy proprietary phone system that consumes much of your IT resources just to maintain then perhaps it’s time to move your phone system to the cloud.

Take a look at these top five benefits of a Cloud PBX phone system:

Cost efficiency

Cloud PBX poses fewer expenses in the form of repairs and downtime often imposed by legacy systems’ in-house maintenance. Rather, Cloud PBXs are managed by a third-party vendor. In addition, Cloud telephony requires little to no complex infrastructure to purchase or set up as it uses an Internet connection to deliver your telecommunications.

Scale

A Cloud PBX enables your communication requirements to grow seamlessly with your business.  In fact, the Cloud solution enables businesses to add phone lines, extensions and even connect to mobile devices without facing the limitations imposed by “old style” phone systems’ hardware.

Outsourced maintenance

The up-keep of a Cloud PBX system is managed by the phone system provider in an off-site location, so you don’t have to dedicate staff, time and money to keeping an on-premises system up and running. Your company will experience more uptime because the Cloud PBX system has redudance in place and is usally automated for maintenance and updating.

Reliability

A Cloud PBX system can be counted on to connect every call without lagging response times, delays or lapses in call quality. You can count on the clear reception of each call, as Internet-based telephony is touted for its improved quality over that of traditional PSTN connection.

Disaster recovery

Often, the first thing that “goes down” in the case of an unforeseen event such as a storm, fire or power outage is your telephone’s connection—that is, if you’re still using a legacy system. This disruption can bring productivity to a screeching halt, which affects your bottom line and external communications—with important vendors and clients, for instance.  A Cloud PBX can solve this problem as your infrastructure is protected in a hosted environment. As such, your flow of communications can continue even in an emergency.
