Hosted PBX Basics
Hosted PBX telephone systems provide your business
with the latest features and equipment, for a fraction
of the purchase price of traditional PBX systems. The
main advantage of getting a hosted PBX system as opposed
to purchasing your own system, is that you will not have
to purchase any hardware or software for the system. In
other words, your business will save money on up-front
setup costs and support costs. With a hosted PBX system,
your business will always have the latest phone
equipment without incurring capital depreciation costs.
Your only ongoing expense will be the monthly service
fee that you will negotiate with your vendor.
In addition to enjoying advanced features like advanced
call routing (to any phone), distributed administration
capabilities and better call capacity handling, hosted
PBX systems enable your business to scale more
effectively. With a hosted PBX system, your business
will be able to tap into the latest call features as
your business grows. Additionally, hosted PBX systems
provide a high level of fault tolerance, making for a
more robust telephone infrastructure at a relatively low
cost.
Hosted PBX systems do have some drawbacks. With a hosted
system you will not be able to have real-time system
monitoring, true automatic call distribution (instead of
simply hunt groups) or easy extension dialing. All of
these drawbacks stem from the fact that the PBX system
is hosted offsite. However, most businesses find that
the cost savings associated with a hosted PBX system
often offset these drawbacks. Additionally, hosted
systems are not limited to a specific number of lines or
concurrent calls, whereas in-house PBX systems are. With
traditional PBX systems, if you are operating under
normal call capacity, you may be wasting money on extra
capacity; if your call volume is over your normal
capacity, you will lose customers to busy signals.
Hosted PBX systems completely eliminate the need to
worry about capacity, since hosted systems flex to your
business demands; ultimately, you pay only for what you
use.

auto-attendant, ACD, multi-party conferencing, etc.)

Using
the Mobile Gateway, operators can offer over-the-air
synchronization of corporate data without the adaptors or
firewall changes required by other solutions. Wireless SyncML
synchronization of email, calendar and contacts increases the
GPRS traffic in the valuable business user segment and email
push to phone with SyncML 1.2 guarantees network utilization.
Business users want fast and easy access to their corporate
data. However, they don't want to beg their system
administrators to install adaptors, open firewalls or buy
expensive VPN solutions
Carrier-grade mobile email and synchronization
increasing revenue from mobile data services
The Synchronica Mobile Gateway brings mobile email and
synchronization to mass market devices generating additional
revenues from the valuable business and professional
consumer segments.
As a unique advantage unmatched by other products, the
Synchronica Mobile Gateway does not require any software
installation or firewall modification in the corporate IT
environment. Instead, the Mobile Gateway is operated in the
data centre of the service provider and connects to the
user's mail server through a secure connection.
Users simply register their devices with the Mobile
Gateway which instantly synchronizes their email, contacts
and calendar data over the air. This unique zero footprint
architecture leads to a fast take-up rate enabling service
providers to offer mobile synchronization directly to end
users, without having to convince the IT department to
install software for external access to corporate data.
Based on the dominant
open industry standard SyncML (OMA DS), the Mobile
Gateway synchronizes email, calendar, contacts, tasks and
notes with SyncML-enabled devices. Since SyncML is already
supported by
hundreds of devices from all leading device
manufacturers, it works with smartphones as well as mass
market feature phones and does not require additional client
software.
