OPEX not CAPEX
Use operating not capital expenditure to replace your phone systems.
If your telephone system is starting to creak with age, has become
obsolete and needs to be replaced with something that actually does what you
want it to do, you could be considering a significant expenditure.
With a cloud based telephone system you can get corporate switchboard
facilities, can half your phones bills and can see a 6 months ROI with some
systems. If you opt for a solution that does not tie you into a contract, the
system will be fully scalable as your business needs change.
Many companies are using outdated systems to avoid the capital
expenditure and at the same time leaving their businesses vulnerable to system
failure.
Hosted, cloud systems are automatically upgraded and never become obsolete;
additionally some phone manufacturers are now offering lifetime guarantees on
their telephones.
As internet services are improving and businesses are moving their IT
into the cloud, the take up of hosted telephone systems is growing alongside
it. It is estimated that there will be 3
million users in the UK by the end of 2016 and the trend is set to continue as
companies move over from using Capex to Opex.
