There are many situations in life when all signs point to a change for the better. When we heed these signs, we are always rewarded. When we ignore these signs, we always regret it \u2014 and wish we had a time machine to know then what we know now.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

With this in mind, if your business is seeing any or all of the following signs, then you can be sure that your old private branch exchange (PBX) phone system is holding your business back rather than driving you forward:  <\/p>\n\n\n\n

1. Your Old PBX Phone System is Insufficient<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Your business is not static and unchangeable. Rather, it\u2019s dynamic and evolves. For example, over time you may have added more on-site\/remote staff using mobile devices. Or, maybe you expanded into new locations or identified the need for more advanced features such as unified communications (UC) to drive operational efficiency, competitive advantage, and optimal customer service and experience. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

However, your old PBX phone system probably isn\u2019t designed to support any of these needs or support advanced features like interactive voice response (IVR)<\/a>, video conferencing, voicemail-to-email with transcription, and a host of other features. This is bad news for your staff, your customers — and the future of your business.  <\/p>\n\n\n\n

2. Your IT team Spends Too Much Time Solving Telecommunication Problems<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

If your IT team spends an excessive amount of time on telecommunications problems on the wrong things. For instance, if they are responding to support tickets from frustrated workers, dealing with hardware compatibility problems, maintaining trunk lines, or complex telephone company network issues, they aren\u2019t focusing on high-priority tasks and projects. This is a massive waste of money and resources. Plus, problems with desk phone connectivity affecting outgoing calls, incoming calls, or anything else will slow down (if not bring to a screeching halt) productivity and collaboration. It could also negatively impact your reputation, and lead to customer loss.  <\/p>\n\n\n\n

3. You\u2019re Managing Multiple Vendors<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

There is a very good chance that your old PBX phone system can\u2019t seamlessly connect to different platforms and applications (for example, linking incoming calls with your CRM system so customer history is displayed). As a result of this, you\u2019re forced to manage multiple vendors \u2014 which could mean dealing with very expensive consultants who cheerfully charge by the hour.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

And that\u2019s not even the worst of it. In addition to solving ongoing problems with your on-premise phone system, these pricey vendors must work with each other. As a result – you have to manage all the relationships. Otherwise, another vendor will simply dismantle the work of your current vendor. When this happens, vendors shrug and you pay the bill.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

4. You\u2019re Pouring Money Into Your Old PBX Phone System<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Think of your PBX phone system as a car. When it comes to cars, eventually there comes a time when the cost of repairs and maintenance exceeds the price of a new vehicle. Plus, at some point, you are continuing to spend money on older technology. And, no matter how much you spend, you still won’t have access to additional features. The same thing happens with on-premise phone systems. There finally comes a point when keeping it functional is no longer financially sensible.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

This is especially true if you\u2019re saddled with proprietary hardware and software (which is likely the case) because it severely limits your options. The only folks happy about this are vendors who get to keep billing you for repairs and maintenance. Or worse, they hit the jackpot – selling you a brand new system costing tens or hundreds of thousands of dollars. Either way, your vendor wins, and your business loses.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

5. You\u2019re spending an excessive amount of time training employees how to use your old PBX phone system<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

You appreciate that new employees need orientation, training, and support to make an effective contribution, and hopefully grow with your team for many years to come. But you don\u2019t appreciate spending an excessive amount of time training these new hires how to use the on-premise phone system.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

And to be fair, it\u2019s not because these people aren\u2019t trying to get up-to-speed as quickly as possible. It\u2019s because your old PBX phone system uses \u201cold school\u201d interfaces, configurations, and tools that are confusing and non-intuitive. Naturally, the learning curve is steep, long, and frustrating for all involved \u2014 trainers and trainees alike.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Bottom Line<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
