With the 2025 digital switchover approaching, it’s time to talk about what this big change means for your business phone systems and how Business Technology Partners is here to help you steer this shift with ease.
What’s the Digital Switchover?
In a nutshell, the UK is moving from old analogue phone networks to fully digital ones by 2025. Sometimes called Cloud telephone systems, VOIP systems or hosted telephone systems, digital telephone systems are all basically the same thing.
This means clearer calls, better reliability, and more features for your business communications.
It is worth noting that if you have other systems connected to your analogue phone line that have not been updated to digital yet such as:
- Security systems (CCTV, Alarms, Door Entry systems)
- Credit card machines
- Fax machines
then they’ll stop working too.
Why It Matters for Your Business!
All your calls will be routed through your existing Internet connection. Wherever your employees are; in the office, working from home, or out on a site visit; they’ll be able to make, receive and transfer calls from your business telephone number.
- Better Quality – Say goodbye to crackly lines and hello to crystal-clear voice calls.
- More Features – There are lots of interesting features available including call recording, conference calls, automatic voice receptionist (or Interactive Voice Response – IVR), mobile and desktop apps; making your business more efficient an ensuring you drop less calls.
