Time to replace your old company telephone
With the growth of VoIP, the company telephone gets an upgrade.
Both the businesses and the industry payers are celebrating the growth of VoIP, or Voice over Internet Protocol, as it is used to replace the company telephone. However, a lot of businesses are still reluctant in shifting to VoIP, thinking that they would need a major overhaul of their analog phone units.
RingCentral provides businesses with easy-to-use VoIP phone systems that work with existing company telephone units. With both local and 1 800 numbers for business subscribers available, RingCentral ensures that you can maximize your new phone system and still use your company telephone units. With the help of an adaptor, you can connect your existing analog phones to your computer, enabling them to make and receive calls using the RingCentral network. All your calls would then be directed first to RingCentral before they arrive in your system.
You may even retain your existing phone number, or choose from among the available 1 800 numbers. For business communications, toll free numbers are highly advantageous, especially if you aim to use your communication system as a branding tool. And with a traditional analog phone line, handling toll free calls can be a challenge. But armed with a RingCentral VoIP phone system, you can make sure that calls will be answered promptly.
Your then unreliable company telephone will be able to answer calls automatically using the RingCentral auto-attendant feature. You can create your own custom greetings, or have it professionally recorded by RingCentral. And through call forwarding, calls to your VoIP phone system can be sent to your office phone, and even to your mobile or home phone. You can also create virtual extensions and assign them to employees in and out of your office, equipping you to have a unified phone system despite distance and cost restrictions. This lets you project a more professional image to present and future customers.
A lot of people think that an analog company telephone does not function in the same way that a VoIP phone system does, you are correct in some level. Although this is right in the sense that a VoIP phone system is more beneficial to a business, a traditional phone system functions in pretty much the same way as your good old phone. You also answer and receive calls simply by picking up the phone unit or pressing the answer button, and you make calls by dialing. However, with the new and improved features of VoIP, calls are handled better and businesses are able to harness capabilities which help them propel their business forward.
