New Generation of Business Telephony

New Generation of Business Telephony

The web has revolutionised our lives but the impact it has had on how businesses go about their operations is immeasurable. This combined with the progress in mobile telephony and the dramatic improvement in the reliability and performance of broadband has enabled a new generation of business telephony services and solutions, Hosted Telephony, communication and collaboration services to develop services that in the past relied on Server Monitoring to be held and maintained on company sites can now be hosted in the cloud. This ensures that software is always up to date and, at the same time reduces both maintenance and IT costs.

Hosted PBX

Historically, business telephony needed an on-site PBX to manage all call functionality and this was connected to the outside world through ISDN. This meant that businesses required two networks – one for voice and one for data. Both requiring different skill sets to manage them. Business VoIP now allows all of the telephony functionality to be hosted in the cloud in a multi-tenant environment.

Furthermore as mobile telephony also moves to IP and is provided over ‘smart’ devices, mobile VoIP allows a high level of integration between a company’s mobile service and its office telephony network. This Hosted Telephony provides many new features as well as large cost savings on mobile telephony.

The usual ringing is provided for incoming calls to the primary phone number and users have the option of enabling a distinctive ring for calls to their second and third phone numbers. For outgoing calls from the user, the user’s primary phone number is the calling line identity. This feature is often used to allow a single station to be called locally from multiple originating local calling areas.
Enables a user to reject calls from anonymous parties who have explicitly restricted their Caller ID. By activating the service via MiHub or dialling the Feature Access Code (FAC), callers without available caller identification are informed that the user is not accepting calls at that time.

You can deactivate the feature through MiHub or the FAC.

Allows users to add up to 5 other parties to a call. When on a call, the user presses the conference button on the phone and dials the number of the add-on party. When the called party answers, the user hits the conference button to add the add-on party. The user can repeat this sequence up to 5 times enabling a call with 6 parties.

Enables a user to define criteria that causes certain incoming calls to be allowed. If an incoming call meets user specified criteria, the call is allowed to complete to the user. All other calls are blocked and the caller is informed that the user does not wish to receive the call.

A criterion set is based on incoming calling line identity, time of day, and day of the week. Multiple criteria sets can be defined.
Enables an End User Subscriber to define criteria that cause certain incoming.
calls to be blocked. If an incoming call meets End User Subscriber-specified criteria, the call is blocked and the caller is informed that the End User Subscriber is not accepting calls. The End User Subscriber controls the service via a web interface, which provides the ability to establish the criteria sets for determining which calls require blocking. A criteria set is based on incoming calling line identity, time of day, and day of week. Multiple criteria sets can be defined.
Enables users to define a “find-me” list of phone numbers that are alerted sequentially for incoming calls that match specified criteria. While the service searches for the user, the calling party is provided with a greeting followed by periodic comfort announcements. The caller can also interrupt the search to leave a message by pressing a DTMF key.
Allows for incoming calls to ring on up to 5 additional phones simultaneously for a Business Plus or 6 for the Premium Service package and 10 additional Site phones for the Business Lite Service package, connecting the first phone to be answered. If one of the phones is already hosting an active call under the line ID, incoming calls are delivered to the active phone and any outgoing calls from another phone using the same line ID are blocked. Shared Call Appearance is used to associate a user’s Mobile or Desktop client with their main number.
Enables users to have multiple phones ring simultaneously when any calls are received on their IHub phone number. The first phone to be answered is connected. For example, calls to a user’s desk phone could also ring the user’s mobile phone, in case the user is not at his/her desk. An optional setting for this feature is Answer Confirmation that requires the user answering the call to hit a digit on their phone before the call is completed. This ensures that a call is not picked by a voice messaging system before the call can be answered which may happen if a call is ringing to a cell phone that is turned off. With Answer Confirmation turned and a cell phone is turned off, other phones in the simultaneous ring list will still ring and can be answered.
Speed Dial functionality in the MiHub portal allows Users to program up to one hundred personal speed dial entries (00 -99) that can be dialled directly from the portal or used on their desk phones.
Allows users to access their voicemails via multiple options beyond direct phone access. Voicemail notifications can be retrieved via the MiHub portal, or via email with WAV file copies sent to any email address. Additionally, if you just want a notification of a voicemail, notifications can be sent to your cell phone via text or email. This allows users to be mobile and also have real time access to their voicemails like they were in the office. Unified Messaging also supports additional the uploading of voice greetings and setting call
Web tools for Site self-administration and the User Dashboard allow easy setup and manipulation of features such as Automated Attendant, Hunt Groups, Call Rules, Call History Reporting, Selective Call Forwarding, and Voice Messaging.
