Businesses are moving to VoIP Phone technology as a communications system thats affordable and versatile. For small business though it’s good to talk to our experts to understand if a VoIP will be cost effective for your needs .
It can be dependant on the equipment and infrastructure your enterprise needs to install to be able to set up a VoIP system. For a good understanding of your options call Fixtel today – we don’t affiliate with any phone companies and advise on what’s best for you and bottom line.
The price will be dependant on many factors. Such as the phone brand, number of handsets, model of handset and if you rent or buy.
Fixtel offers different pricing solutions platforms. You can buy, rent or lease. For some price comparisons a standard hybrid system with 4 handsets would begin around $20 to $30 per week. And a 8 handset system around $30 to $40 per week. These prices include everything:

The number of lines needed will be vital to make your business run as you want it. For example you might have 6 employees, if they are all on the phone simultaneously and a another person phones your office they get an engaged signal. Which in today’s business world is not a good look. Also depending on your business you may need an additional phone line for eftpos. And most business need a phone line for the internet (ADSL).
This is also a chance to decide if a VoIP is best for your business as the more lines you need the bigger your line rentals and phone call costs will be. VoIP eliminates these costs as all handsets work from the one line.
IP handsets have a network switch inside them which makes them more expensive than digital handsets which have no chip. Both handsets often look the same it’s just that their connection is different, in that they connect to the pbx or switch.
For small business often the cost saving for digital handsets make them more appealing. They are around 20% less expensive than IP handsets.
Choosing the right phone system will make your day to day business run smoothly and efficiently. To know what system is going to achieve this means understanding your business needs. For example do your employees work in one office or different locations? Do you need to route calls? Or have conference call phones?
More importantly for you to think about are the features that will enable your business to run at its peak.
With VoIP technology viewed as the be all and end all of phone communication technology it can be hard to understand if it will actually suit your individual business. For larger businesses it works because you get call and line savings from being a data/internet system.
But for smaller businesses traditional phone systems using phone lines can be more cost effective as they offer the latest phone technology without having to spend on infrastructure needed for VoIP. Our Fixtel advisor can perform a phone bill analysis which helps you know whether VoIP savings (not paying for phone line costs, eg number of phone lines and phone call costs) will offset the infrastructure and additional equipment spent to set up a VoIP.
Fixtel install VoIP and are fully qualified in installation, setup and maintenance. So if you decide on a VoIP we will take care of everything for you.
Nearly all phone systems allow for future expansion of your business. In fact it’s common for most business phone systems to expand up to 24 plus users. And others can also make it easy for exponential growth with up to 1,000 users. What you need to put some thought into is if expansion means several business sites or remote employees?
Our experienced Fixtel consultants can help you with advice. It maybe that opting for IP connectivity setup now for future use is the way to go.
Small businesses find many benefits in renting communication technology. This is because they can often claim 100% tax deductible monthly payments. Plus they do not have to lay out a large payment for buying the system outright. Leasing is akin to renting but involves a fixed payment at the end of your term agreement.
Keep in mind both options may have a interest payment built in and even though buying outright is a bigger upfront cost, it is not ongoing and saves in interest payments. Each small business is different and to best know what is right for your business it is recommended to speak to your accountant for financial advice.
To save you money on any way you decide to buy get connected with Fixtel. Whether you are leasing, renting or buying contact a phone technician.
Having a phone system that has powerful functions and features is great. But this can be impacted if the handsets are not user-friendly. It may be that you need some handsets with full function for staff and other simpler handsets for staff with different roles.

Key Features needed on your Small Business Phone System
So even if someone calls the main line asking for a certain person, rather than take down a phone message, the call can be directly transferred to their personal voicemail. This is so much more efficient as messages won’t be lost or wrongly advised. Plus the caller can leave exact purpose of call on voicemail, saving time and extra callbacks.
