Why Migrate from Legacy On-Premises PBX to Cloud Hosted PBX?


No Physical
Hardware

Unlike legacy on-premises PBX systems, cloud-hosted PBX does not require expensive infrastructure and telephony equipment. It can be used on a wide range of internet-enabled devices such as, smartphones, PCs, and VoIP phones.

Web-Based
Control

Cloud-hosted PBX solutions can be deployed using a single-centralized system across locations and geographies. Global admins can manage the solution from anywhere using web-based management features to support distributed workforces.

No Technical Expertise

Deploying and managing customized on-premises PBX solutions requires in-house telephony expertise that is often accompanied by inflexible service contracts. Cloud-hosted Issabel IP PBX is a standardized solution that is easy to use and manage.

Easy Upgrades & Scaling

On-premises PBX systems lack many features and are difficult to upgrade and scale. Changing certain components or upgrading communication systems can result in compatibility issues. Cloud PBX solutions are much easier to scale and upgrade.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs):

1. How is a cloud-based phone system different from our existing on-premises PBX solution?

Unlike on-premises business phone solutions that require capital investment and expertise in installing and managing complex hardware, cloud-based phone systems leverage the technology and network infrastructure owned, managed, and delivered as a service over the internet by service providers such as Apps4Rent. This reduces expenses and removes hardware management hassles.

2. Who is Apps4Rent hosted Issabel solution ideal for?

Apps4Rent hosted Issabel cloud PBX solution is ideal for businesses with distributed workforces. Here are some of the use cases for the solution.

3. What are some of the distinguishing features of a hosted Issabel cloud PBX solution?

Here are some of the key features of the Apps4Rent hosted Issabel cloud PBX solution.

4. What are the requirements for deploying the Issabel cloud PBX solution?

Issabel cloud PBX runs on CentOS 7 and supports 7th gen Intel hardware. Asterisk 11 and Asterisk 13 can be used as the base environment. However, no PBX hardware or technical expertise is required for an on-site setup of the Apps4Rent hosted Issabel cloud PBX solution.

5. Is any special equipment of router required for the Apps4Rent hosted Issabel cloud PBX solution to work?

No special telephone lines or PBX hardware is required for the solution to work. However, as an open-source solution, most existing platforms can be configured to work with the solution. It is advisable to have a QoS (Quality of Service) enabled router to ensure optimal call quality when the internet bandwidth is shared for other activities.

8. How secure is this solution?

Our solution is significantly more secure than traditional PBX systems. There are separate security modules for Issabel that can be used to set up and configure firewalls to enable port knocking. With this setup, ports can be opened externally to the internet while keeping the firewall closed.

9. Can a call be transferred off-site?

Yes, calls can be transferred to an external number through IVR. It is even possible to transfer an on-going call to an external number using a process that is similar to redirecting calls to an internal extension.
