Virtual PBX: the pleasure of managing your business without hardware

The virtual PBX is the latest trend in business communication and this will continue for a long time to come. Companies no longer need to invest in large physical facilities to communicate, connect and store information. Every change and the events of the last few years have only pushed for a much faster adaptation.

Many still do not understand the concept, but it is very simple, as is its application. Soon the telephone lines, servers and all the physical communication equipment will become obsolete. Now everything is simpler, more orderly and entrepreneurs are saving a lot of money and space in their offices.

The virtual switchboard has surpassed the physical one

Until recently, running a business meant spending a fortune on physical hardware. Servers tend to be large, spacious and their maintenance requires a space to be set up. Of course, installing this hardware was not optional and companies had to deal with all that it entailed.

The famous system failures are nothing more than failures in a company’s servers. This is what breaks down when we call a bank and are told that the line is «down». This kind of juncture happens all the time when all digital management mechanisms are supported by physical hardware. That’s why companies have to spend money to add IT engineers to their payroll.

All these dynamics are now alien to companies that have migrated their systems to the virtual PBX. Today’s managers know that it is much better to hire expert communications companies to provide the service. They only install their software and assign users to call, open the call center software and store the information.

The advantages of the virtual PBX are many

The virtual PBX is equivalent to simply hiring the hardware that supports the management systems. Instead of installing servers, you pay for the service and get an interface that allows both internal and external communication. All those functions that, for example, have a secretary’s telephone or a call center, are also contracted.

The communications system works through an interface that does not require large installations or devices. It is difficult to talk about the advantages of the virtual PBX because they are innumerable. To tell the truth, this will depend on the contracted service and how innovative the contracted company is. One of the market leaders is Neotel and this can be seen in the plans and modules they offer to their customers.

All functions are used through the virtual PBX and therefore on any computer or device authorized by the company. Employees simply have a profile and log into the interface and can make calls, access data and other tasks. Entire call center teams can operate in this way, even using their own smartphones.

From the virtual PBX, calls can be put on hold or transferred, but this is only the beginning. Fax services, sms scheduling, call launchers, statistics, call recording are some of the best features.  The list of advantages of this technology is really long and the migration of companies to it is simple.
