An application that can run on your computer or mobile device that acts just like a physical office telephone.

Cost savings: First things first – stop paying the phone company. With a hosted system, your phone calls are delivered through your existing internet connection. There’s no major phone equipment to purchase, except maybe new desk phones. And you’ll have fewer expenses in the form of repairs and downtime since everything is located in the cloud.

Scalability: It’s easy to add and remove extensions as your business needs change. You can even connect with mobile devices for those that don’t need to be in the office. So you’re only paying per-user per-month.

Outsourced maintenance: All of the upkeep and maintenance is managed by the VoIP provider off-site. Which means you can free up any in-house staff from maintaining your phone system – saving you time and money. And the best part, the hosted phone system doesn’t need to be taken offline for maintenance, updates or repair during business hours.

Reliability: With a traditional phone system, if a line is down the call can’t go through. With an internet-based phone system, multiple routes can be established for digital data to travel, keeping your phones up and running.

Disaster recovery: Your phone system’s infrastructure is protected in a hosted environment, so no matter what happens at the office, communication flow can continue even in an emergency. And if your internet or network goes down, calls can still be placed and answered through the mobile app, which works just like a desk phone.

Extra features and increased productivity: With the mobile app you hold the power of your desk phone in your hand, giving you the freedom to work wherever. You can answer, hold, conference, transfer, and more. Other cool features of switching to a hosted system can include caller dashboards, call reporting, advanced caller ID, automatic upgrades, and voicemail/faxes being sent directly to your email.

Depends on the amount of concurrent calls you expect to have. Example of a carrier service that provides bandwidth of 10Mbps x 1Mbps (10×1); which is typical for a broadband ISP to provide slower upload. 1 call requires approximately 90Kbps download/upload which equates to .09Mbps. You could have 11 (1 Mbps upload x .09 Mbps = 11 Calls) concurrent calls total based on the upload limit.
