MOVING UP WITH TOSHIBA: NO CUSTOMER LEFT BEHIND
By Toshiba Telecommunications
Toshiba provides a clear and affordable migration path to help you retain your investment in your telephones while upgrading to newer and more sophisticated Toshiba business telephone solutions. Moving up doesn’t mean tossing out. Here’s proof. Maybe one of these scenarios below applies to you.
You want to trade up from a legacy Toshiba Strata® DK, Strata CTX or Strata CIX system to a current-generation or larger Strata CIX system. No problem. Your existing Toshiba DKT2000, DKT3000, DKT3200 and DP5000-series digital phones all work with the new phone system.
You want to add IP phones to your Strata CIX system. No problem. Strata CIX systems support both digital and IP, so you can continue to use your existing Toshiba digital phones and add IP phones for those who need the power of IP.
You have a Strata CIX system, and you want the latest IP capabilities such as voice mail with unified messaging, unified communications, meet-me conferencing and mobility features. No problem. Just add an IP card to the Strata CIX server and pair it with Toshiba’s IPedge® Virtual Server, which delivers the capabilities of Toshiba’s IPedge business communications system. Reuse all your Toshiba IP5000-series phones in the process.
You want to go all-IP with an on-premise system? No problem. You’re in good company. More than half (57 percent) of buyers surveyed by the software review firm Software Advice reported that they were looking to purchase VoIP services for the first time. Get a Toshiba IPedge system sized to suit (models available from 24 users to 1,000) and reuse your existing Toshiba IP5000-series telephones and other components.
You want to migrate from an on-site PBX to a cloud-based phone solution. No problem. Toshiba’s VIPedge® cloud-based solution is based on IPedge technology, so you can move entirely to the cloud, and your staff won’t have to learn a new phone system. You can reuse all the IP-5000 series phones you used with your Strata CIX or IPedge system.
You want to establish a contact center with advanced call routing, IVR, PC integration, reporting and more. No problem. That capability is already on your IPedge server; just turn it up by software license — or add an IPedge Virtual Server to your Strata CIX system. And, you guessed it — you can reuse your existing IP endpoint devices.
You could soon outgrow your on-premise Toshiba phone system. No problem. Augment your IPedge or Strata CIX system with VIPedge cloud-based service, either to add users at headquarters or to bring distant users or locations into the company network. Strata CIX users just add some processor/firmware upgrades and an IPedge App Server. IPedge users are good to go. And yes, you can reuse the same IP endpoints and other access equipment.
Your organization is growing and you need to add more locations. No problem. Since VIPedge service is licensed on a per-user basis, you can expand anytime just by adding endpoint device(s) and licenses for each new user — up to 500 users in multiple locations. Hybrid cloud networking extends the value of your existing systems while expanding in an affordable manner. Network all users together as though they are on a single solution, without having to buy a new phone system. When your business grows to the point where it makes economic sense to have your own IP phone system, you can easily migrate to an on-premise IPedge system, such as the IPedge EM platform (supporting up to 1,000 users per server). And yes, you’ll reuse the same IP endpoints.
Upgrading shouldn’t have an upscale price tag.
With new telephones representing about half the cost of a new business telephone system, you can save a lot of money by being able to keep and reuse working phones. This represents a huge reduction in the cost of moving to a new system. When combined with potentially large drops in long distance costs by moving to IP — and reduced maintenance costs associated with newer hardware and cloud options — many customers find that it’s far more cost-effective to upgrade within a product family than to move to a new and different one.
Granted, in the technology business, some obsolescence is inevitable. But with a plan, thinking ahead for a smooth path into the future, Toshiba can help you move up and keep up, with the goal of no customer left behind.
