Internet & Phone Systems

Thinking of Internet & Phone Systems ? The Computing Australia Group is here to assist you.

Right choices make a successful business. Choosing an internet provider is a big decision for a business. There is a myriad of confusing terminologies to be careful about and a wide range of options to choose from. A lock-in contract makes it even harder to accept a deal. Browsing through the choices often leaves you with more questions than answers.

The CAG consulting team will analyse your business needs and assist you. By taking into account your current setup, your goals and the allocated budget, we’ll help you select the best phone system for your business.

Choosing an Internet Service Provider

Not every ISP is created equal.

When you choose an ISP there are many considerations but the most important two are speed and bandwidth. You also need to think about contract length, dedicated IP addresses, equipment requirements and more for your internet connection.

Most businesses are heavily dependent on the internet for accessing online resources like Office 365 / email, internet accounting systems like QuickBooks or Xero. There are also services like offsite backups or cloud computing solutions.

It is important to think not just about where your business is today but where you are going – what resources are you likely to consume in the future.

The Computing Australia Group’s internet review will take a snap shot of your business and help to identify the right connection and the most favourable price. We work with all key ISPs including Telstra, iinet, TPG and Vocus. We can arrange anything from a standard ADSL connection through to a fibre solution.

IP Telephony

No discussion about choosing the right internet service is complete without also considering the rest of your communication needs, including your phone system.

Most ISPs have their own phone solutions that they can bundle into a good deal for you but you need to exercise some care in choosing. There are many advantages and disadvantages to each phone system.

A good IP Telephone system will have features that include:

• Unlimited calls
• 99.9% uptime guarantees
• Scalability
• Conferencing facilities
• Call recording
• Easy self management
• Good warranty plan
• Call transferring options

You can also look for cool features like being able to use soft phones while away from the office or integrating your mobile phones.
