so I’ll just toss out a few of them…: I really don’t understand this cloud-based stuff. How is it going to help me?That’s an easy one. Just remember a few numbers …
30% to 50% – what the typical user will save monthly over traditional wireline carriers
90% – what many users find the initial savings are compared to traditional telephone systems
… and the best part is (yes, there’s more!)
Power outages – storms, errant squirrels in the transformers – have little to no effect on your phone lines. Work continues, and everyone is happy.
PLUS
The dashboard allows you to keep multiple locations in one system, including your traveling or remote workers.
AND
Since you have no equipment to maintain, there is no single point of failure.
AND, one more thing
If you aren’t happy we aren’t either, and we’ll work with you until you are completely satisfied with your Front Office system. But, if you decide it’s not for you, just let us know. We will help you switch to your preferred provider and there will be no more financial obligation. Versicom Communications stands by its guarantee.
A cloud-based system has many benefits; only you can determine which are more important to you. Ask us, we’ll help you evaluate them.
: How does Front Office work?Of course, you can, it’s your number. It was assigned to you and is yours until you choose to discontinue it. With Front Office, you can use your number from, or to anywhere in the United States. We can set it up any way you want. Even toll-free numbers can be used with Front Office.
With Front Office you can have phone numbers from any location within the USA. For instance, you might want a number from nearby areas or larger cities, or even from another state.
No additional numbers are needed. You can use just one phone number (if you want) for multiple locations. Just let us know so your Front Office can be configured the way you want it to work. With Front Office, you can make or receive virtually unlimited simultaneous calls and your main number will always show.
We promise to never abandon you to an unfeeling paper instruction manual. We provide a variety of post-installation support. Clients are welcome to contact our support personnel via email, chat, or phone. We also provide a handy “how to” guide in which most questions are addressed. And if that doesn’t help we have real live technicians ready to travel.
Trust us, you don’t want free phones. They are generally worth exactly what you paid for them. We use only the highest-rated equipment which we sell to you at cost. And Versicom’s flat-rate service includes all relevant charges, taxes, and fees. We lay it all out, so you know exactly what you are paying for. We want you happy with your properly functioning Front Office system.
As many as you purchase. There is no charge for extensions. This makes Front Office an ideal system whether you have a small office with just one or two lines, or a large firm with multiple lines. Large or small, you have recognized that you need a more advanced communication system, which may include auto-attendant answering.
: Exactly how will Front Office work & what do I have to do? Let’s get down to specifics, the nitty-gritty of all this.Not likely as the new system only requires a CAT5 jack. If you already have an internet-enabled computer where the new phone is installed, no additional wiring is necessary. If you are sharing a CAT5 with a computer some phones are limited to 100mbs and others are Gigibit. If you want a phone where there is no internet connection, you might need to install a wire to connect or purchase one of the WIFI enabled phones.
No, you need an internet connection but not a computer, as the phones are independent of any other internet-dependant devices.
NO! Please don’t do that! Just call us, Versicom Communications will handle the conversion to the new system. We know it may sound funny, but some things just need to happen in a certain order. Generally, the conversion takes 1-2 weeks. If you cancel your current service too soon it just might take a lot longer to complete the installation. Relax, we will take care of it.
