 A potential source of excessive cost and down time during an office move, or a move to home-working is the moving and re-connecting of telephone and fax lines. This is the perfect time to consider upgrading to a digital telephone system as it brings substantial benefits;-
Cost Reduction.
If you move to digital telephony prior to your office move, there will be no need to reconnect multiple telephone lines. In many cases all that is required in your new office is one telephone line, onto which business ADSL is installed. Further cost reductions are made through call cost reduction, and free calls between the office and remote business locations**. Business Continuity.
When using a digital telephone system, the only potential down-time is the time it takes to physically move the equipment from one office to the other. The telephone server and the telephones are simply un-plugged and moved to the new office in the same way as your computers. With minor configuration changes, voice calls continue as normal, transmitting through the new ADSL connection in the new office. The Y-Tel digital telephone system exploits the internet to transmit between 25 and 50 concurrent voice calls down a normal business broadband connection*. The system can be implemented prior to an office move on your existing broadband, and simply transferred to your new office, and your new broadband connection with ease. Other suggestions to help with your office move. Exploit Fax-To-Email.
This will deliver your received faxes to your mailbox, further reducing the pain of moving phone lines. This also enables you to pickup faxes from home or remote office, without having to be stood at a physical fax machine. Outgoing faxes can be sent either via email, or by plugging your fax machine into the line used for your broadband. We can arrange this service for you if required. Review Your Technology Setup To Identify Potential Problems.
There may be many unseen considerations relating to your computer network, such as your email and remote access configuration. We can provide a 'pre-move' review of your IT network to try to identify any areas which might cause you problems following an office move. It is also an good idea to have a technician on-site to de-commission the old office network, end reinstate it in the new office. We can of course provide this service if required.
