Stratihost Cloud Hosted Phones: Get More Features at a Lower Monthly Cost
Do you want to cut your monthly phone bill and increase features?
In today’s marketplace, the rising cost of all services can make balancing cash flow almost impossible. If your business is still using an old, on premises phone system that requires dedicated phone lines, and a big monthly phone bill from a major telecom company, we would like to introduce you to cloud-hosted phones. Persona Cloud phones from Stratihost, offer powerful features and built in business continuity at a fraction of the cost of traditional phone lines.
What Are Cloud Hosted Phones?
Cloud hosted phones use the internet to make and receive calls, instead of traditional dedicated phone lines. You may be asking, how does this work?
- Voice data is sent over an internet connection (VoIP technology). Check out our previous blog post on VoIP.
- Your VOIP phone is connected directly to your network and receives all its calls from the hosted phone system in the cloud.
- Any device that has a web browser can make or receive phone calls including your iPhone or Android or your Windows or Mac computer.
Why Businesses Are Switching to Stratihost Cloud Hosted Phones?
There are so many reasons to switch to cloud hosted phones, it is hard to find a reason to say no.
Cloud phones help lower phone bills by cutting out the need for expensive hardware, regular upgrades, and outrageous monthly bills from ATT and other telecom providers. Ongoing costs are also lower because, if you use a web app to answer calls, you do not need to regularly swap out your phones or worry about your phone system’s end of life. With a cloud hosted phone system, it is certain that in most cases your business will reduce phone costs immediately after switching.
Cloud-based systems come packed with business-friendly features such as: voicemail to email, call forwarding, video conferencing, an auto-attendant, call analytics and logging, mobile access for remote teams and built in Business Continuity. As a Straihost customer, since you’re hosted in the Stratihost phone cloud, you’ll get additional features added on to your system with no additional upgrade costs.
Remote work is now standard for many businesses. Cloud phones enable full access from any internet connected device. Your team can answer business calls from home, in the office, or on the go. This feature means that Stratihost cloud phones have Business Continuity built in.
Scalable for business growth cloud systems can grow with you. Add or remove users instantly, no technician or new equipment needed. This removes waiting periods previously faced with the need to order traditional phone systems and can get your team members on the phones in no time.
