Ensuring an effective phone transition starting with a VoIP test

RingCentral helps you make the transition from traditional to cloud phone system by assessing your business needs, initiating a VoIP test, and making any necessary configuration changes.

Early assessment to ensure success

Once you purchase your multi-line phone system, RingCentral assigns an implementation advisor who will introduce you to the technology and walk you through the steps of a successful deployment. This comprehensive guidance spans everything from a VoIP speed test to assess your network and readiness to system configuration and customer training. It can even extend to a discussion of skills that your internal IT team may be lacking and ways to fill those gaps with RingCentral or third-party resources.

To assess the best system design for each customer, RingCentral employs an implementation and onboarding methodology that has been developed and refined by more than a quarter of a million successful deployments. This initial discovery phase includes determining:

  • Goals for your new phone system
  • Current phone system features
  • Quantity and types of mobile devices and phones
  • Broadband Internet capacity and bandwidth budget for employees (via a VoIP speed test)
  • Type of LAN
  • Quality of service (QoS) settings
  • Number of business locations
  • Requirements for calls to be made by mobile or distributed employees and consultants
  • Requirements for your auto attendant, call groups, and call routing
  • Timeline and rollout approach (phased or all at once)

Pre-deployment VoIP assessment—beyond just a checklist

By analyzing the data from this initial discovery phase, RingCentral works with your team to craft a design and implementation test plan. This detailed strategy transforms the pre-deployment assessment into more than just a test for features/functionality (for example: voice quality) but also as a venue to test new capabilities such as voicemail-to-email. So in essence, the team uses a proven methodology to mitigate the risks of transition—prior to deployment.

Comprehensive testing for infrastructure readiness

As you move to the installation phase, a RingCentral implementation advisor guides you through a network readiness assessment to make sure your network is prepared to handle your new phone system. This includes assistance with:

  • Testing for bandwidth capacity and speed
  • Evaluating bandwidth connection quality
  • Recommending bandwidth upgrades (if needed)
  • Configuring network devices to improve QoS
  • Integrating fax lines, conference phones, and other infrastructure
  • Enabling special requirements such as direct dial on pickup

This proven, step-by-step methodology ensures your transition to a cloud phone system is an enterprise-class service experience.

Summary

Whether it’s a cloud or on-premise PBX, deploying a business phone system is a major undertaking. Each step of the rollout—including user adoption—must be carefully planned and implemented according to a proven onboarding and deployment methodology. RingCentral offers experience, technology, and seasoned onboarding teams with a depth of IT and telephony expertise. By conducting the VoIP test above and with the help of RingCentral’s implementation, you can be sure that your transition to a cloud phone system is a smooth one.
