Its not as simple as you may think, purchasing a
new phone system can be a mine field of confusion
and techno babble.
It is so important to get this purchase right
since communication is the life blood of any
modern organisation.

My name is Greg Eicke and Ive been working at
the leading edge of voice communications for the
past 27 years.  In that time Ive found that most
companies are interested in two things when it
comes to their phone technology. Firstly, how to
increase their productivity with better voice and
data communication and secondly, how to reduce
the phone bill. I bring great news for the
business owner who is looking for impressive
productivity increases and equally enjoyable cost
savings. Another key frustration for businesses
is the sheer complexity of many phone and data
solutions.  The good news is that communications
complexity ends with Greg Eicke!  As do all of
its painful implications. Almost three decades in
this industry has enabled me to develop what I
call brilliantly simple phone solutions.  These
solutions will make communications and
collaboration second nature for your workforce.
And of course they save you big dollars in
ongoing phone costs another reason why they are
brilliant!

Bundling telecommunication providers
Which phone technology is best for you now and in
the future
How to maintain continuation in the event of
crisis or disaster
How to establish effective telecommunication
systems for multiple locations, remote workers or
teleworkers

organisations implement the best and most cost
effective telecommunication system for their

1.
To Bundle or not to bundle?
The rule of thumb is bundle beware. Here are
some important points to consider when it comes
to bundling they could save you thousands
How much are the call rates?
Secondly, how long are you locked into those
rates? (rates are constantly changing, good rates
today are bad rates tomorrow). And finally, can
you easily keep pace with technology during the
contract term?
Do you own the phone system at the end of the
term?

Digital or IP?
  • Does your business need a digital telephone
    system or a comprehensive unified communications
    (UC) solution? It is important to understand the
    communication enhancements, productivity
    enhancements and cost savings you could
    realistically achieve with either solution.
  •  
  • Digital telephone systems provide, among others,
    these key benefits best for single site
    enterprises
  • Lower hardware costs
  • Basic call handling
  • Low IT literacy required of staff
  • Analog equipment like domestic cordless phones
    and fax machines
  • DECT Cordless Phones for staff on the move
  • Simple voice mail and multi button handsets.

Disaster Recovery?
What about business continuity and disaster
recovery? Just think about the recent natural
disasters many telephone systems in Brisbane
were destroyed. Many businesses simply couldnt
recover and have had to walk away. Whats your
disaster recovery plan?

Have you considered ALL of your communication
needs?
Have ALL of your communications needs been
considered?
Changing, upgrading or modifying one
communication component can potentially impact
your other communication means.
So have you considered all aspects including
landlines, data and IT networks, mobile (voice
and data), broadband, etc?

Have you overlooked the advantages of less
traditional methods?
Telcos have conditioned us to believe that we
need to pay line rental on as many lines as they
can sell us.
There are many better ways

7.
Will you get sufficient training on your new
system?
Lets face it the initial training on your
telephone system is likely to be quickly breezed
over by a technician (not a teacher) and rapidly
forgotten
How will you make sure that you get the best
value from your investment.

Are you purchasing on price alone?
If you are chances are you wont be buying what
you really need for your business.
The great news is that you can get exactly what
you need for your business and have it paid for
from massive savings on your phone bill.
This is absolutely the case if you are spending
more than 492 in phone call usage per month.

How do you know if you are talking to the right
vendor for your business?
The most telling sign is whether or not a
prospective vendor does their homework on your
business.
You want to be sure that you are getting a well
researched and designed solution that is just
right for your business.
This research should, at a bare minimum, include
key stakeholder interviews, site(s) audit and
phone traffic analysis.
