  IT WORKS, SOWHY CHANGE IT? To businesses everywhere, a phone system is like the air we breathe. We need it to survive and yet we take it for granted. for many businesses running legacy telephone systems that’s as far as it goes. It works, so why change it? However, that age-old split between desktop client /server computing on one hand and traditional voice communication on the other is being challenged by the fast-changing tide of voice and data convergence. OUR HOSTED Ip TElEpHONY pROpOSITION / The simple truth that ‘technology as a business accelerator waits for no man’ resonates across the business landscape. The hidden message to either ‘seize the moment or get left behind’ is a warning shot that no business should ignore.

However, look deeper at the equally valuable benefits of increased productivity; better customer experience; improved resilience and disaster recovery (dr) – and perhaps above all greater business agility – and the advantages become clear reasons in themselves to start the convergence journey. That journey normally starts with the integration of voice and data networks. While this is a daunting proposition for some, it need not be.
