Virtual PBX

For many years, most corporate phone systems were powered by on-premise PBX hardware.

For many years, the PBX (Private Branch Exchange) has been the central nervous system of telephone communications within an organization. What began as a switchboard manually operated by human beings evolved into a self-controlled, though bulky, piece of equipment that could be stored in a spare room.

Legacy PBX systems once provided key advantages, but those benefits are now outweighed by major cost drawbacks and severely limited functionality. Traditional PBX hardware is inflexible and lacks the scalability to adapt to the ebb and flow of business. It hinders true mobile device integration and the seamless connectivity of remote workers and multiple locations. Additionally, onsite hardware requires a significant upfront investment that is expensive to maintain. Simply put, on-premise PBX phone systems are cost-prohibitive and impede even the most basic forms of modern communication.

Technology has since progressed so that the equipment no longer needs to be on your organization’s premises, nor even be owned by your organization. Much like “cloud computing” and “cloud storage”, the virtual PBX transformed telephony hardware into a Software as a Service.

System reliability and basic features of virtual PBXs have grown more consistent among major providers as the industry has matured, leaving advanced features and price as the next areas for advancement. At ByPhone, incorporating new technologies has always been a focus of our business service offering, and recently, we announced our entry into the free virtual PBX space

As an early innovator of cloud communications, ByPhone saw a new way to revolutionize business PBX using the power of the cloud. We developed offers around virtual PBX (also known as cloud, hosted, or IP PBX) solution, which has all of the benefits of traditional PBX—voice, fax, voicemail, extensions, conferencing, paging, intercom calling, etc.—without the expense and limitations of hardware such as trunks and switches.

Benefits of virtual PBX

However, it is precisely this environment that leaves your phone PBX vulnerable to a security breach or natural disaster. A virtual PBX eliminates these threats.
