Nextera Communications: Hosted PBX Trend Gains Momentum


MINNEAPOLIS --(Business Wire)--

As adoption of cloud-based solutions increases, Hosted PBX (News - Alert) sales continue to rise due to the cost-benefit advantages compared with traditional phone systems and unmanaged PBX systems. Hosted PBX provides a turnkey solution that's cost-efficient and offers increased scalability, flexibility, and greater capacity, while delivering high performance voice and communications management.

Although sales of premise-based PBX systems haven't grown over the last few years, research conducted by Infonetics (News - Alert), a telecommunications marketing research firm, showed global sales for Hosted PBX services increased by more than 20% in 2013. A 2014 Metaswitch Networks® study showed 20% of small to medium-sized business respondents were currently using IP communications, and of those, 60% purchased a Hosted PBX product.

"Hosted PBX offers robust features that can take productivity to a higher level while significantly reducing costs," said Becky Parker, Vice President of Development and Marketing for Nextera Communications. "It's very advantageous for small to mid-sized companies. Quick and easy to deploy, Hosted PBX provides businesses with valuable opportunities - like free interoffice extension dialing between multiple sites, an ultra-flexible auto attendant system, and published numbers in offsite locations for a virtual presence."



Additional benefits that play an integral role in the rise of Hosted PBX sales include no upfront infrastructure costs, complete maintenance coverage, and built-in compliance functionalities.

"It's a revolution in telecommunications and Nextera is excited to be leading the way for Minnesota businesses," said Parker.
