Your New Years Communications Resolution

Cloud based phone systems have emerged as a leading technology to enhance processes for businesses of all sizes over the past decade, and local authorities are no exception.

IP Telecom, one of Irelandʼs leading providers of cloud-based phone solutions, offers a range of services that can help local authorities save money, simplify operations and improve communication.

The start of the year is an especially good time for local authorities to make the switch to a new way of communicating with colleagues and users of their services. Not only are users and service providers better connected, by switching to cloud-based systems, local authorities can significantly reduce their phone bills. Cloud-based systems eliminate multiple line rentals and on-premise hardware which becomes redundant over time, saving a significant amount of annual budget.

Furthermore, through the deployment of softphones, existing laptops and smartphones can be turned into your landline device, ensuring teams are connected wherever they are and eliminating the need to issue brand new devices.

IP Telecomʼs cloud-based system is also much easier to manage than traditional phone systems. Admins can easily add new users, change call routing, and access call logs and analytics – and do it from anywhere. This makes it much simpler to keep track of communication and ensure that employees are using the system efficiently.

Local authorities often have to deal with peak periods, such as new infrastructure projects starting, updates in the electoral register or community events. With IP Telecomʼs system, itʼs easy to add new users and phone lines as needed, without having to buy or install additional hardware.

Finally, IP Telecomʼs system provides local authorities with enhanced security. Traditional phone systems are vulnerable to hacking and other security threats, but with multiple layers of security, encrypted calling, two factor verification and other checks in place, system administration and calling is secure.

For local authorities, now is a great time to switch. IP Telecomʼs cloud-based system is cost-effective, easy to manage, scalable, and secure. Start your communications new year today at www.iptelecom.ie
