If your business is looking to simplify its phone management, SIP trunking might be the relief you’re looking for. By eliminating the need for maintenance and installations, your teams will have to spend less time managing telecom issues and more time focusing on core business matters.
Fast Implementation
A new SIP trunking solution can be deployed within 30-60 days, or even a few weeks depending on the scope of the project. Because SIP trunking installation is handled behind the scenes, primarily by your SIP trunking provider, you will be able to get up and running without any disruption to your business. There is nothing additional to configure at your end, provided you have a strong connection to the Internet and a SIP-compatible business phone system.
No Maintenance
Once you’re up and running, increasing capacity is as simple as contacting your provider. No more hard wires or installations required – all you have to do is request additional trunks to scale your solution. Your SIP provider will also manage the network and disaster recovery so you don’t have to. With a reliable vendor, redundancy is automatically baked in and your provider will handle all of the failover destinations if a hardware or carrier issue should occur.
Single Vendor
Many SIP trunking providers offer other communications solutions as well. If your provider does, you’ll have one point of contact for all of your communication needs. No more pointing fingers or needing to call multiple vendors to determine the source of the issue. Instead, you’ll have one call to make to get to the root of the problem. By having one vendor, you’ll be able to save time and provider a seamless experience across all of your communications solutions.
Remove Geographic Barriers
With SIP trunking, you can integrate with local PSTNs to streamline interactions between employees in multiple locations. Because remote locations can be added easily to the same network and enjoy access to the same communications applications as workers at headquarters, both regional and international offices benefit.
Support for Growth
As your business grows, you currently have to forecast adding new lines in advance to prevent capacity issues, plus invest a lot of time and money into physical space and installation management required to turn up additional lines. With SIP trunking, call capacity can be increased on-demand to support unlimited concurrent calls. Hence, you don’t have to spend time installing additional lines when business demands change or get caught in a bind if unexpected seasonality occurs. Plus, you won’t have to account for future grow and overpay for lines you aren’t using.
