We are seeing one of the largest business technology refreshes since the invention of the computer. Just like we are seeing media and software moved to the cloud, we are seeing the brains of the phone system move to the cloud. But why are phone services for business moving to the cloud?

In the past, with an on-site PBX system, businesses would pay one provider for voice, possibly another provider for data and Internet, and yet another for long-distance. The phone system and its on-going maintenance agreement come from still another provider. Each time that you would need to move, add-on, change or upgrade, you would have to coordinate across multiple vendors and deal with stacks of separate bills with mounting costs for every single request.

With the old on-site PBX solution, troubleshooting issues became virtually impossible, as each provider is pointing fingers at the other, while you, the customer, sits helpless. If you are a business that is expecting expansion or growth, then you can multiply that mess by 3 offices or 50. Each office with its own needs, issues and personnel. This makes the success of a company’s expansion, turn into “the nightmare of expansion!” With an on-premise PBX, your IT Directors are often required to pinpoint new providers for every location. You must purchase different hardware for each office, factoring costly maintenance with constant upgrades, office by office by office; think about all the vendors you must talk to, just to implement a single change. In the end, you will be left facing bloated capital expenditure, excess staffing and potential disruption down every single provider’s line. If you have a small business telephone service, the last thing you want to do is worry about the phone solution. 

If you own an onsite PBX today, then your business is dependent on interaction between SIP Trunks, voice lines, data lines, fax lines, Internet connections and the PBX system; all from multiple service providers.
