Why You Should Trade Your Old “Premise” Technology in for Cloud Technology

If you’re in an older office building or your company hasn’t upgraded its business phone systems in a while, chances are you’re tied to a proprietary technology and hardware bundle for your phone system. Regardless of the make and model, the fact that you’re tied to a single company’s technology likely means you’ve got limited functionality when it comes to your phone lines. At SafeCall, we feel every business should be able to take advantage of the latest technologies and functionalities, and that’s why we’ve integrated the SafeTrade program into our cloud-based telephone services. Let’s talk about some of the benefits of cloud-based systems and our SafeCall program, and why you shouldn’t wait to trade up.

Device Independent

Old premise based telecommunications hardware requires you to be tied to your desk if you’re expecting a call. While in most cases your provider will allow call forwarding and remote access to your voicemail, these aren’t ideal solutions for our increasingly mobile workforce. Cloud-based systems such as those offered by SafeCall allow access to your business phone line from any device that can connect to the internet and run the proper software. This allows employees a level of freedom to work from the field and stay connected. To facilitate the transition and provide you with additional value, our SafeTrade program includes a Yealink VoIP desk or cordless phone for each unlimited cloud extension on your account. 

Integration with Your Business Software Infrastructure

Workflow and process efficiency are key to your organization’s ability to compete in the increasingly fast-paced economy. Our cloud software system, unlike outdated premise systems, allows integration through your phone or mobile device with your organization’s CRM tools, communications platforms (email, instant messaging, voicemail, teleconferencing), and other  business-critical software. By placing all lines of communication through your mobile device or business phone, your employees can be more productive and efficient in the office and in the field.

Access to Future Functionality with Built-In Scalability

Premise based phone systems eventually will reach a point where they will be unable to run the most up-to-date software or provide access to advanced functionality. SafeCall’s cloud-based services can be accessed through applications, and update similar to the apps on our smartphones, ensuring your employees’ phones will always be host to the most up-to-date services. 

Similarly, maintaining a premise based system can be an expensive and complicated affair when it comes time to add new lines due to business growth. You also run the risk of using a system that becomes discontinued or obsolete, creating a situation where growth would require an entirely new system to be installed. Our cloud-based VoIP phone system can affordably and instantly be scaled to include any number of extensions your organization might need due to growth or reorganization.
