What Does a Hosted Telephone System Mean To My Business?

Moving your office telecommunications to the Virtual Voice Business Phone VoIP System isn't just about saving money on calls.

 

Smart companies will make the transition because of many other reasons. This includes improved business communication, customer service, and increased employee productivity, mobility and future-proofing.

The benefits of a hosted phone system are numerous and go beyond simple costs savings as customers have access to this technology without the associated problems of system acquisition, finance, deployment and support.

 

 

 

1) A State of the Art phone syst Hosted Phone System provides

10 reasons why a hosted phone system is good for SMEs

1) A State of the Art phone system

2) Future Proof

1. The Hosted Phone System is 'future proof,’ as soon as we introduce new features, we roll them out to our customers, so you won't have to worry about another large capital equipment upgrade a few years down the road.

3) Pay As You Grow

2. With Virtual Voice there are no penalties to start small and then add 'seats' to the VoIP system as you grow, as you only pay for the seats you need on a monthly basis.

4) Reduce Trunk Lines

3. Renting trunk lines from carriers isn't small change for most organisations that rely on voice for both internal communications and customer interaction. Trunk line rental is a significant part of monthly overhead cost, so why not reduce this outlay wherever and whenever possible?

5) Reduce Call Costs

4. While saving on calls is no longer the primary driver for adopting hosted VoIP systems, it can be a prime factor for organisations that have multiple offices requiring frequent voice communication, so not having to pay for that communication can reduce a large amount from an organisation's operational budget.

6) Instant Communication and Collaboration


5. VoIP telephones improve productivity and the ability to collaborate remotely by creating direct links between teleworkers and office-based workers with the click of a mouse; this creates a workplace without borders.

7) Seamless Teleworker Connectivity

6. The VoIP system makes it easy to integrate teleworkers into the business telephone system through their own broadband connections. Additionally, your customers will be able to reach your teleworkers through your corporate switchboard, regardless of where the worker is physically located.

8) Respond More Quickly to Customers

7. With a Hosted VoIP system, companies can improve customer communication by providing them with VoIP telephones that allow them to contact your sales and service departments directly, for free.

9) Cut Move, Addition and Change Costs

8. Every time your company moves, adds, or changes a conventional telephone connection, it costs money. With VoIP, your network configuration is software programmable and its voice signals are carried over your business LAN - this means that you can administer the changes yourself.

10) Your Number Moves With You

9. Unlike traditional numbers, you can take your number with you, down the road, to another town, or even another country as the VoIP system is not dependent upon your geographic location.

business customers with a leading edge phone system without th 10.

10. Virtual Voice Hosted Phone System provides business customers with a leading edge phone system without the associated capital cost. From day one you will have a system that delivers all the current features plus tomorrows as they become available.

 

Hosted Business Telephone System

Features:


Free On-Net Phone Calls

With our VoIP business phone system, On-Net calls (internet or VoIP to VoIP) are free and unlimited. Enable your co-workers so that you can talk to them for free, whether they are in the next room, building, city or on the other side of the world - they are just one extension away!

 

Discounted Off-Net Phone Calls

 

Off-net calls are phone calls that are made to normal, PSTN (Public Switched Telephone Network) phones and mobile phones, wherever they are, at highly discounted rates.

 

Incoming Numbers (DIDs)

 

Each Coms Hosted VoIP account is issued with a UK Direct Inward Dial (DID) phone number that can handle 100 simultaneous calls. Typically, the DID number is directed to your Auto Attendant, which manages the call and transfers the caller to their chosen department or extension number. We can also issue international DID numbers.

 

Anonymous Call Rejection

 

Automatically reject incoming calls from parties who do not deliver their name or telephone number with the call. Required IP phone support.

 

Automatic Line / Direct Connect ("Hotline")

 

Automatically dial a pre-assigned number, or connect whenever a user goes off-hook or lifts the handset. This feature is configured on the SIP phone side using the dial-plan configuration parameter.

 

Auto Attendant (IVR)

 

The Auto Attendant answers incoming calls to your main number, and then routes them according to your requirements. The service can be time and date dependent, such that out-of-hours callers will hear a different message to callers who are calling during working hours. The Virtual Switchboard is configured via a web interface, enabling changes to be made to the system at any time and from any internet connection.

 

Call Data Records (CDRs)

 

CDRs are available directly after a call for viewing and downloading.  CDRs are available online.

 

Call Forwarding on Busy

 

Automatically routes incoming calls for a given extension to another pre-selected number when the first extension is busy. This feature is implemented by configuring the follow-me service (choose "Follow-me when unavailable") and activating the Cfwd Busy Serv supplementary service on your IP phone.

 

Call Forwarding on No Answer

 

Automatically routes incoming calls for a given extension to another pre-selected number when there is no answer after a specified number of rings.

 

Call Forwarding to Multiple numbers Simultaneously

 

Automatically forwards calls to multiple internal extensions and external numbers simultaneously.

 

Call Hold

 

You can place a call on hold by tapping the receiver hook button, or by pressing the "hold" button, depending on what IP phone (hardware of software) you are using.  Calls on hold are played "Music on Hold".

 

Call Parking

 

Allows the user to place a call on hold, move to a different location, and then resume the call from any other station in the Centrex by dialling a pickup code.

 

Call Pickup

 

When inbound calls are routed to a group of extensions that are set to ring simultaneously, any of the phones in that group can pickup the call.

 

Call Queuing

 

In conjunction with Coms's group hunting feature, the Call Queueing feature enables callers to be queued before their call is routed to an agent. When callers enter the queue they are informed about the number of callers ahead of them and, optionally, the estimated waiting time.  Customers can define as many queues as they need and have the ability to forward callers to physical IP phones, or virtual accounts which have been configured for group hunting. Each queue can have its own "music on hold"..

 

Call Restrictions / Station Restrictions

 

Prevents certain types of calls from being made or received by particular stations. For example, phones in public areas can be blocked from making calls to external numbers, so as to prevent unauthorized users from incurring toll charges. Phones in certain areas may be blocked from receiving external calls in order to limit employees' ability to take personal calls. A wide variety of restrictions are available, covering incoming calls, outgoing calls, toll restrictions, code restrictions, and differential treatment for internal and external calls.

 

Call Return

 

Allows the user to make a call to the last party or number that called the user, regardless of whether the user answered the original call or knows the caller's identity. Requires support by the IP-Phone.

 

Call Transfer

 

Transfers an existing call to another party (inside or outside the group).

 

Call Waiting

 

Alerts the user to incoming calls when the user's line is busy with an established call. Upon hearing the Call Waiting tone, the user can put the current conversation on hold to answer the incoming call. Providing that the Call Waiting service has been enabled on the IP phone.

 

Caller ID

 

Allows the user to identify the name and telephone number of a calling party before answering an incoming call.  The phone must have a display to show the caller ID.

 

Caller ID on Call Waiting

 

Allows a caller's name and number to be displayed when the called party is taking another call. The phone must have a display to show the caller ID, and the Call Waiting feature must be activated.

 

CLI Mapping for Outgoing Calls

 

The CLI, or number that is presented to "called" parties, can be set as an account default or varied on an extension by extension basis.

 

Conference Calling

 

The Coms Conferencing Service is an instant access conferencing system that can be reached by dialling a dedicated conferencing number of your choice, or it can be linked to a Coms Auto Attendant.

 

Consultation Hold

 

Calls can be put on hold by pressing the Transfer, switch-hook or flash button. After completing the second call, the user is automatically reconnected to the original call on hold.

 

Dial-by-Name Directory

 

If a caller does not know the extension number of the person they want to talk to, the caller can get connected by dialling the first three letters of the person's surname.

 

Distinctive Ringing

 

Uses a special ringing pattern to indicate whether an incoming call is from inside or outside the Centrex group. Supported by ComsX for the VPN Distinctive Dialling feature.

 

Extension Dialling

 

Any extension can be dialled directly from the Auto Attendant or from any other of your Coms phones.

 

Fax-to-Email

 

The Auto Attendant will answer fax calls and email an Acrobat .pdf file of the fax to a defined email address.

 

Group Ringing

 

The system can be set so that defined phones will ring on incoming or forwarded calls, with the call connecting to the extension that answers first.

 

Intercom Dialling

 

Allows users to call Centrex extensions by dialling a standard 4-digit code, instead of the entire 7-digit telephone number. Supported by ComsX via the Abbreviated Dialling feature.

 

Hunt Groups

 

Allows calls to be redirected to other predetermined lines when the line called is busy. Hunting allows a number of lines to be grouped into a "pool", so that incoming calls are directed to whichever of these lines is available. Supported by via the follow-me feature.
 

Message Waiting Audible

 

Provides the user with an audible notification - a "stutter" dial tone when messages have been left in the extension's voice mail system.

 

Message Waiting Visual

 

Provides the user with a visual indication when messages have been left in their voice mail system. This feature requires the phone to be able to display the appropriate icon or light.

 

Multiple Call Appearances

 

Multiple Call Appearances allow each station to have two or more appearances of the user's primary phone number. Each appearance gives the user the ability to handle one call. Consequently, Multiple Call Appearances allow the user to make and/or terminate multiple calls simultaneously. Unlike an analogue multiline phone, the station needs only one line (and one phone number) for Multiple Call Appearances. When the user is involved in a call on one call appearance and another call is offered on a different call appearance, the user may use the Caller ID information to decide whether to answer the ringing call appearance or let the call be forwarded to voicemail. To answer the ringing call appearance (or make a second simultaneous call), the user simply puts the first call appearance on hold. Calls on different appearances can be combined together to form a three-way conference call, supported via the follow-me feature. The primary phone number (account) is provisioned on the IP phone, and all the other appearances are created as accounts with the follow-me, configured to the primary account.

 

Music-On-Hold

 

Provides a musical interlude for callers who are waiting on hold. Every user can use the default one, or can upload his own music and get the background music they want.

 

Speed Dialling

 

Allows the user to dial frequently called telephone numbers using an abbreviated speed calling code instead of the entire number. The Speed Dial list can be accessed by all users on the system and can be used to dial internal and external numbers.  Speed Dialling is called "Abbreviated Dialling"

 

Station Message Detail Recording (SMDR)

 

Allows the corporate telecom manager to receive call detail records on a per-station basis before the monthly telephone bill is issued. SMDR helps the customer control telephone fraud and abuse, perform accurate cost accounting, and analyze call patterns to identify opportunities for cost reductions.

 

Three-Way Conferencing (Three-way calling)

 

Allows the user to add a third party to an existing conversation forming a three-way conference call, SIP phone must support the 3-way calling feature.

 

Voicemail and Voicemail-to-Email

 

Each and every extension has its own configurable and customisable voice mail service. Voice messages can be accessed online, replayed over the phone, or forwarded to your email inbox.

 

Web Based End User Control Panel

 

Users of each and every VoIP extension can have total control of their own call forwarding and voice mail settings through personal web-based control panel.

 

Web Based System Administrators Login

 

Allows full administration of your overall account

Administrators have a "super user" level of access which, in addition to providing access to your Auto Attendant (IVR), allows them to have an overview of all users and the settings of each and every extension

SIP Trunks

Service Highlights:

  • SIP Trunk - £2.00 - DDI Number £1.00
  • Choose Any Number Regardless of Location
  • Reduce Line Rental - Reduce Call Charges

Full Details:


Virtual Voice Services delivers carrier class voice calls over SIP Trunks


SIP Trunks enable costly standard or ISDN (BRI or PRI) telephone lines to be replaced by a single IP connection.


SIP Trunking can be linked directly to an onsite IP-PBX or to a traditional PBX using a Gateway. Outgoing calls are then routed through the PBX and out via the SIP Trunk, rather

than using costly traditional phone lines.



Virtual Voice Services Unbreakable SIP Trunks


The "Unbreakable" service uses two independent internet connections to send and receive voice data between Coms and our customers, with voice data packets transmitted simultaneously over two internet connections and then re-assembled from both circuits in real-time to cut out any packet loss, jitter, latency or circuit loss.

Seven Steps to Better SIP Trunking / IP-PBX Security



There are industrial grade scanners operating 24/7 to find and exploit IP-PBX’s that are not secured.

Any PC or Network with direct access to the internet must be secured, using strong passwords, network security, firewalls and disabling unnecessary services, deploying an IP-PBX service is no different.

Before deploying an Asterisk based IP-PBX on the internet you MUST ensure it is secured against malicious attacks and hacks.

Seven Easy Steps to Better SIP Security on Asterisk:


1. Don’t accept SIP authentication requests from all IP addresses. Use the “permit=” and “deny=” lines in sip.conf to only allow a reasonable subset of IP addresses to reach each listed extension/user in your sip.conf file. Even if you accept inbound calls from “anywhere” (via [default]) don’t let those users reach authenticated elements!

2. Set “alwaysauthreject=yes” in your sip.conf file. This option has been around for a while (since 1.2?) but the default is “no”, which allows extension information leakage. Setting this to “yes” will reject bad authentication requests on valid usernames with the same rejection information as with invalid usernames, denying remote attackers the ability to detect existing extensions with brute-force guessing attacks.

3. Use STRONG passwords for SIP entities. This is probably the most important step you can take. Don’t just concatenate two words together and suffix it with “1? – if you’ve seen how sophisticated the tools are that guess passwords, you’d understand that trivial obfuscation like that is a minor hindrance to a modern CPU. Use symbols, numbers, and a mix of upper and lowercase letters at least 12 digits long.

4. Block your AMI manager ports. Use “permit=” and “deny=” lines in manager.conf to reduce inbound connections to known hosts only. Use strong passwords here, again at least 12 characters with a complex mix of symbols, numbers, and letters.

5. Allow only one or two calls at a time per SIP entity, where possible. At the worst, limiting your exposure to toll fraud is a wise thing to do. This also limits your exposure when legitimate password holders on your system lose control of their passphrase – writing it on the bottom of the SIP phone, for instance, which has been done seen.

6. Make your SIP usernames different than your extensions. While it is convenient to have extension “1234? map to SIP entry “1234? which is also SIP user “1234?, this is an easy target for attackers to guess SIP authentication names. Use the MAC address of the device, or some sort of combination of a common phrase + extension MD5 hash (example: from a shell prompt, try “md5 -s ThePassword5000?)

7. Ensure your [default] context is secure. Don’t allow unauthenticated callers to reach any contexts that allow toll calls. Permit only a limited number of active calls through your default context (use the “GROUP” function as a counter.) Prohibit unauthenticated calls entirely (if you don’t want them) by setting “allowguest=no” in the [general] part of sip.conf.

In summary:



These seven basic security measures will protect you against the vast majority of SIP-based brute-force attacks. Most of the SIP attackers are fools with tools – they are opportunists who see an easy way to defraud people who have not considered the costs of insecure methods.

Asterisk has some methods to prevent the most obvious attacks from succeeding at the network level, but the most effective method of protection are the administrative issues of password robustness and username obscurity.


Use Existing BT Numbers for Inbound SIP Trunks



Virtual Voice Services can port BT numbers onto our system, enabling customers to change a single line number into a multi line number and giving you the flexibility to take the number with you if you move down the road, to the next county or even to another country!

Please note that any numbers with services attached/associated to them (e.g. fax, broadband, alarm systems) will be ceased when the number is ported over to Virtual Voice Services. If your number has associated services, you will need to transfer these services to new number with BT before attempting to port.
