SIP or VoIP Cloud Hosted Telephony
For all businesses looking to replace a traditional, premise-based PBX system or upgrade from ISDN, the common alternatives are VoIP or SIP Trunks, a ready-made replacement for ISDN, connecting a business’s existing PBX to the providers national network via broadband, ethernet or a private circuit.
For for organisations looking to use those changes as opportunities for an improved staff and customer experience and a remote working solution, while moving to a scalable, reduced maintenance and fixed monthly cost model, then a VoIP, cloud hosted phone system is most likely the best route.
Both alternatives are available from Midland Comms so either way we are on hand to advise you and create the perfect upgrade solution with you and for you.
