How To Buy A Business Phone System
By Al Martinovic

 

 

There are many considerations when buying a new business phone system and with so many brands to choose from it can become a very daunting task.

This article will try to explain what to consider when purchasing a new business phone system and in the process hopefully save you some headaches and money as well.

First you have to know the current communication needs for your company and how many lines and extensions (telephones) you may need. Fax machines, credit card terminals, and modems also have to be taken into consideration as they will require the use of extensions.

Can the business phone system you are using be expanded in the future to accomodate your needs? You might save some money in the beginning but when your business phone system has reached its maximum capacity for lines and extensions... then what?

You need to buy a whole new system and spend a great deal of money in the process. And so the future growth of your company has to be considered as well. Your phone system should to be able to grow as your business grows.

Some phone systems will let you expand as your company grows with the addition of cards that will supply more lines and extensions or by the addition of an expansion unit similar to your main phone unit.

This in turn may save you money as the cost of adding more lines and extensions will be far cheaper than having to go out and buy a whole new business phone system.

Another consideration down the road is whether your business phone system works with or is compatible with any of the communication trends you may want to use such as voicemail, conferencing equipment, and headsets. Otherwise again, you will have to go out and buy a whole new phone system again.

Most business phone systems will offer the same basic features such as intercom, speed dialing, caller ID, music on hold, auto attendant etc. so it doesn't become too much of a factor.

What it really comes down to is whether your phone system can grow as your business grows and whether the brand you are purchasing is compatible with or will offer any of the emerging communications technology that your business may need in the future.

To conclude, do some research on the business phone system you may want to purchase and ask questions from the dealer you are purchasing from. Choose your business phone system wisely and it will save you money and possible headaches in the future.
