Your legacy phone system might be serving your needs, at the moment, but it might be costing you money and it can’t grow with your business the way a cloud communication system can - and will.

The Vodia PBX supports enhanced collaboration amongst your team members, and it enables hybrid and remote work models for increased flexibility and productivity. And it can reduce your telephony expenses by more than 50 percent.
What Makes A Phone System Outdated?
Yes, there’s plenty to love about landlines and deskphones. We think of them as if they’re old pickup trucks - they take a beating, but they’ve always gotten the job done. But will they always? If you’re using a legacy phone system, you’re probably tied up with a lot of costly issues:
- aging hardware
- installation fees
- maintenance costs
- per-line fees
- repair fees
- slow response times
If your company operates from multiple locations, there are other complexities and costs:
- long-distance/multi-line pricing
- new wiring and hardware at new locations
Finally, legacy phone systems can be disrupted by outages caused by natural disasters (earthquakes and hurricanes) or other events, as well as the failure of outdated hardware. Even if a massive asteroid collides with Earth, your business can’t afford to miss calls or lose a connection.
What’s the Alternative to an “Old-Fashioned” Phone System?
Your best bet is to deploy a Voice-over-Internet-Protocol (VoIP) system that supports unified communications in the cloud. VoIP allows voice communication to be transmitted over the internet, rather than via traditional or legacy telephone lines. By converting voice signals into digital data packets, VoIP enables phone calls using broadband connections, offering cost savings and increased flexibility. VoIP supports advanced features like video calls, conference calls, and integration with other digital communication tools.
VoIP is a foundation for modern business telephony, allowing companies to scale communications, reduce infrastructure costs, and enhance mobility for remote workers - it supports unified communications by combining voice with messaging and collaboration platforms. VoIP enables hybrid and remote models, so any organization can benefit from a dispersed workforce, with individual employees using their own devices (BYOD) for external and internal communications. It is, quite simply, the present and the future of business telephony.
