IP Phone Buyer's Guide 
 

IP Phone Buyer's Guide

Yesterday’s charcoal-grey business phones are fast being displaced by touch-screen, display-outfitted IP units that do everything from facilitate Web conferences to deliver up-to-the-minute stock quotes.

The bottom line with IP phones is that they offer businesses a user-friendly and easy-to-manage alternative to traditional phone systems. Such innovation, however, comes at a price; a single IP phone can range from $150 to $700 or more, a hefty price tag for a company with limited funds or a sizeable work force.

This buyer’s guide examines the IP phone market and offers details on what to look for, how to buy, what you can expect to pay and how to get the most out of your investment.

IP Phones Benefits

  

An IP phone’s primary perks include:

  • Configuration and Administration: Forget about time-consuming reconfigurations and rewiring activities. Rather, an IP phone can be moved from one site to the next simply by plugging it into the nearest Ethernet port.


  • Enhanced Productivity: Businesses can easily integrate IP phones with key applications such as customer-relationship-management and contact-management tools. For example, users can place calls directly from Microsoft Outlook or instantly access a price list the moment a particular client calls.


  • Greater Collaboration: By integrating videoconferencing into an IP telephony solution, companies can perform feats such as holding a conference call among worldwide offices or working jointly on development projects using Web-based collaboration tools.
