We Go Where You Go: VoIP and Unifying Communications Between Offices



Reliable, clear communications is a challenge for any organization that manages many locations over a large area. Add to that the budget constraints and inefficient legacy systems and you need a unique solution that can keep costs down while upgrading superior communications technology. Read Star2Star’s Case Study. http://stwb.co/clppul



Let’s say you own a delivery services business with locations in several states. Your warehouse is in one location, your storefronts are spread all over, and your data center is somewhere else altogether.
To keep your business running smoothly, your employees need to be able to communicate between offices. But with the wire-based legacy phone system you have now, the cost of making interoffice calls—and the complexity of housing a different system at every site—is sapping your bottom line and making life more difficult than it needs to be.
With a cloud-based Unified Communications (UC) solution, however, your business can put all its communications on a single system so that offices on opposite sides of the country appear as if they are on the same floor of one office building. With a top-rated UC provider like Star2Star Communications, you get a full suite of features specifically designed to help cut costs and boost productivity for multi-location businesses, including:
  • The ability to answer any incoming call from any office
  • No-cost interoffice calling
  • Shared phone lines across several locations
  • Unified dialing plan across all locations
  • Ring groups and call queues operate across locations
  • Quick and easy call transfer across locations
Star2Star also provides self-monitoring capabilities and disaster recovery that help us guarantee 99.999% uptime for our system. We also offer mobile solutions for multi-location businesses whose employees travel often between offices. Perhaps most importantly, our unique Blended Architecture makes Star2Star the most scalable UC solution on the market.
In other words, we go where you go, and we grow when you grow.

Top Five Reasons to Invest in VoIP & UC in 2015






The enhanced communications capabilities brought about by deploying a unified communications (UC) solution save companies both time and money. Integrating a cloud-based UC system into your business environment can also boost worker productivity and collaboration. In this post, we look into how specific features will help your company benefit from a move to UC. We also remind you of the reasons to deploy quickly, encouraging you make 2015 the year your company starts to keep pace with your competitors.
While UC is still a cutting-edge technology, it’s also a critical business solution deployed by a diverse range of organizations worldwide. Growth in the market is so significant (expected to reach $75 billion by 2020, up from $22.8 billion in 2013) that your company will struggle to survive if it doesn’t keep up.
You can improve your company’s bottom line by employing UC tools, as your workers will be better able to collaborate in real time on a multitude of tasks. This applies to mobile employees, as well as to those groups working together from disparate geographic locations.
By giving your workers access to UC tools, you increase their job satisfaction and loyalty. You also improve the likelihood that you will attract talented candidates to your workplace. Millennials are especially prone to seek employers that allow them flexibility to work remotely and at non-traditional times.
Five of the most impactful UC features and benefits are listed below; the supporting statistics are from research conducted by Chadwick Martin Bailey:
  • Conferencing and collaboration: More than 75% of user organizations experienced improved employee productivity across geographically dispersed locations due to voice and video conferencing. Some 64 percent realized reduced travel costs by more than 10%.

  • Mobile communications: Mobile communications improvements led to increased employee productivity and faster problem resolution for 67% of user organizations from such features as click-to-call, corporate directory access, presence, and visual voicemail on mobile devices.

  • Contact center efficiency: 33% of user organizations with contact centers reported a decrease in average call response time of 11% to 25%.

  • Presence, IM, clients: 49% of user organizations saved up to 20 minutes per employee daily by reaching workers on the first try. Some 54% of user organizations saved up to 20 minutes per employee daily by escalating IM chats into phone calls, and 50% saved up to 20 minutes per employee daily by escalating IM chats into Web conferences.

  • Unified messaging: More efficient message management led to timesavings of up to 20 minutes per employee daily for 50% of user organizations.
