Is It Scalable?

• Scalability is very much important. You have to
  sure that the phone system allows you to easily
  add and remove users.
• Companies add and remove employees at all times,
  make sure your phone system may easily adapt to
  this change.

VoIP Based

• Business VoIP phone systems are the trend
  nowadays. They provide more features and are less
  costly than analogue phone systems.
• On this writer's opinion, avoid buying a non-VoIP
  phone system. The technology is obsolete and the
  VoIP possibilities today are very good superior.

Hosted VoIP or Premise Based

• You may either choose a hosted VoIP service or an
  idea based service. In the event that you get a
  hosted VoIP service you merely connect your VoIP
  telephone into the Internet! You are all set.
• You must buy a bit of equipment called a PBX
  together with your VoIP devices. A PBX (Private
  Branch Exchange) is absolutely expensive. It
  could cost a few thousand to thousands, to begin
  with. Also, after getting purchased the PBX you
  have to keep it, revise it and control the
  machine for your organization. Companies with 500
  employees or less usually, that aren't tech
  companies, go the hosted VoIP route automatically.

Equipment Costs

• What are the gear costs for the phone system? Not
  only for the VoIP cell phones or regular devices,
  also for the PBX? If you go the hosted VoIP route
  you do not need to buy a PBX. If you go the
  premise based route you have to get a PBX which
  can get expensive then.
• You can purchase a used one for just a little
  cheaper which may have software already
  installed. Nevertheless, you have to get someone
  to arrange it for you'll still. Be skeptical here
  if you are buying a fresh PBX, often salesmen
  want to market, you the priciest PBX on the
  marketplace for your big commission check.

Service Cost

• Ensure that the provider you select has
  competitive charges. While this holds true, you
  do not want anything too cheap. In the event that
  you go the reduced end route you will get an
  extremely poor phone service probably.
• You don't want that. You'll receive dropped calls
  and also have to call customer care constantly.
  It's definitely well worth your money to shell
  out a bit more and get a midsection of the street
  service so far as pricing can be involved.

Unified Communications

• Communications is a hot topic in the telecom
  industry presently. Basically, this means to have
  a device (hopefully not devices) which allows one
  to aggregate your communications data.
• If you can find a continuing business phone
  system with unified communication skills then you
  are in luck. It will save time and increase
  productivity. There are a few great hosted VoIP
  options out there if you shop around.
