We have created our hosted VoIP services to address the unique needs of small and medium businesses(SMBs). We know that SMB employees have to give more than 100% to insure that the business runs smoothly and customers are happy. Excellent communications with customers, partners and other employees are critical to the success of the business. SMB employees don’t have time to worry about or manage a complicated phone system. They need it to be easy, feature rich and robust.
We also know the budget pressures under which small and medium businesses operate. They need a telephony solution that is low cost while still meeting all their business needs.

Benefits to the Customer:
With SIP Advantage OfficeFone™, businesses enjoy the following key benefits:
Capital expenditure is avoided. PBX equipment is expensive. A 10 to 15 person office will pay $10,000 to $15,000 for a PBX system, plus associated software licensing costs of $3,000 to $5,000.
Maintenance and administrative costs are avoided. Ongoing PBX maintenance is usually contracted to the PBX installer and runs at about 15% of the installed equipment cost per year. The IT staff resources required to administer the PBX may represent another 15% of the purchase price per year.
Bandwidth costs are reduced. Many business locations maintain three or more different networks for long distance calls, local voice service, and Internet access. Because voice travels over the data network in hosted IP telephony and both local and long distance are bundled, significant bandwidth efficiencies are gained by converging three networks to one network. A T1 circuit has enough capacity to deliver both the phone lines and the Internet bandwidth needed by the typical small to medium-sized business location.
Long distance charges for calls between company offices are eliminated. Hosted IP voice services differentiate between on-net and off-net calls. An on-net call originates and terminates on a hosted IP voice site. An off-net call originates on a hosted IP voice site and terminates on the PSTN. All on-net calls are free. Hence, a company with five hosted IP voice sites has free intracompany calling among those sites regardless of geographic location or volume of calls. In addition, within the SIP AdvantageSM network, all IP to IP calls are free. This means that calls to customers, suppliers or partners that are also SIP Advantage SM customers will be free!
Business continuity is improved. Since the equipment is located in a carrier’s network, disruptions due to weather and other occurrences can be minimized. In addition, if there is a problem, phone calls can be rerouted to another location.
