Is VOIP a good fit for you?
VOIP has been “all the buzz” the last year or two and touted as the next big tool for business, but is it really a good fit for you? If new Ethernet switches are considered in the budget, then the overall cost of VOIP is usually higher than Digital. Digital would never require re-wiring the office where VOIP might. Having VOIP requires the separation of voice traffic and data traffic, or the execution of a network assessment to see how well the “network” will handle the addition of voice if voice (VOIP) and data traffic were converged.
We take a different approach because the built-in features of the latest generation of VOIP systems are also available on the AVAYA IP Office in the digital configuration too! Remote workers, quick phone moves, and “hotel-ing” are the primary benefits to VOIP. The AVAYA IP Office has the ability to have VOIP, Digital, and Analog devices ALL working off of the same phone system therefore we can configure your office to be “all digital” while having your remote users on VOIP! ITN can program the ability to do “hotel-ing” on any group of phones allowing for random access for transient workers. When you look at the big picture, VOIP is not the answer for every business. Maybe our competitors tout VOIP because their systems won’t do digital?
