To put it simply, the more robust a telephone system in a business is, the better and more efficient would the work coordination be and with that the overall performance of all of the employees will improve as well. In this article we will discuss a few telephone systems that are usually associated with businesses in the Flushing, NY which covers zip codes: 11351, 11352, 11354, 11355, 11358, 11367, 11371, and 11381.

Telephone systems in enterprises can be classified into three different types – KSU less phones, which are best suited for small businesses; Key systems for mid-sized enterprises, and the most elaborate of the three, Private Branch Exchange, or PBX, for the largest corporations.

KSU less phone systems are meant mainly for businesses that do not require any more than merely ten extensions. Another benefit of having a small business phone system has to be the installation and maintenance cost, which are relatively low, and so would be the phone service on 10 extensions. Another thing is that, since KSU less phone systems are primarily more simple, moving it to a new office location is not going to be a big deal at all. You just simply have to unplug the telephone system and then plug it back in in the new office that you have moved to (with the connections matching up the same as they were in the older office/previous installation). If you have a small business or a start-up, probably the best choice for you would be to install a KSU less telephone system.  As your own enterprise grows with time, you will be free to upgrade it to a more complex system anytime that you want.

As mentioned above, Key systems and Private Branch Exchange, aka PBX, are what is required for larger businesses. Asterisk/Elastix PBX is what is essential if a business has more than 40 employees and if frequent communication is with more than 5 telephone users at a given time, otherwise known as conferencing, and enhanced call management is required. By call management, it implies different communication models like for example call forwarding, call waiting, voice mail and fax, and the much needed business telephone system compatibility with other electronic devices like let’s say printers, personal computers, mobile or cellular phones, and the Internet as well. Asterisk PBX would definitely cost you a lot more than the KSU less telephone systems, and that is something that should not surprise you given the wider range of functions and operations it provides.  Besides Asterisk, there are many other competitors (which will most likely cost more than Asterisk) such as; Avaya, NEC, Panasonic, Samsung, Mitel, Optimum Online, Verizon, ATT, and many otehrs.   Another thing that you should consider is that the phone companies tend to offer different communication packages which depend upon the customer’s requirements, and the prices tend to vary a lot depending on these features that are included in each package. If you desire for your business a feature filled service, we can help you out with all of your telephony needs.

On the other hand, Key system is tailor made for more medium sized enterprises whose employee strength falls somewhere in the lines between 10 and 40. The PBX and Key systems are most commonly installed and maintained by the service provider, which is not the case with the KSU less ones.

We feel the best IP Telephone System solution is Asterisk – what ever flavor it may be. We love Elastix, and the Elastix project. We can support your Elastix installation or install an Elastix PBX phone system for you.
