There are many services available to meet your business telecommunications needs, but today I am going to discuss the one that I use every day: RingCentral.com

You can go online and find a service to send and receive faxes, a VoIP for phone service, a unified messaging service, a Virtual PBX service… Or you can get multiple land lines from the phone company, buy phones, buy a fax machine, buy a PBX system, and of course pay someone to get it all working…. And that’s why we are bringing this up, Money. It’s all about getting the most bang for your buck… believe me, if you are using traditional land lines, and fax machines you are pouring money right down the phone line. If your using some frankenstien like combination of land lines and online services you are probably wasting money on overlapping services that don’t really meet your needs.

If your looking for a reliable and cost effective alternative you can use RingCentral. We use RingCentral for multiple companies, and doing so is easy. We have a phone number for each business and each number can go to it’s own extension, it can be set to forward that call to one or more people so you can always have someone answer the phone.

We are even able to have a support line that lets the caller choose from a list of options and routes that call to the appropriate extension.

My favorite feature is the ability to use VoIP lines to expand the system to connect Satilite offices and home offices. And having a button on your website that says “call me” a visitor clicks it, enters their phone number and the system automatically calls the visitor then calls you… that’s pretty cool.

We started with RingCentral with one phone number and the basic plan…. Now we have 6 numbers and utilize soft phones and are planning on stepping up to the RingCentral Office Plan soon. This will act as a complete, fully functional VoIP and PBX system. all taken care of by RingCentral so I don’t have to worry about it. Beautiful.
