The original "I don't know it all" of aviation.
Anyone here have experience with small biz telephone systems? Possibly the new computer based or cloud based systems?
I have questions and am seeking recommendations on a replacement system
I currently have an NEC Aspire system and I've reached my frustration level with how difficult it is to make small changes like the routing tree, announcements, mailboxes and more.
My needs currently cover 7 inbound lines to the PBX, and one analog for the fax machine; 7 phone stations.
My desired feature list includes:
Solution must be with a strong company that has top support and is not going to disappear in the middle of the night.
Price point is open right now, but not to crazy. I want to learn what's out there, and what to expect on costs (like studying an airplane type and seeing what the market is asking for the different designs and features).
Discussing here is good. The email link in my profile is active, so if you want to send me something that way, please do.

My desired feature list includes:
- Easy to expand more lines
- Feature rich with ability to setup and easily change routing trees (Press 1 to speak to sales, press 2 for accounting)
- GUI interface preferred (both administrative and each user level)
- Call queuing where if station is talking to one customer, others calls to that station get in line. Even better if the GUI interface shows my salesperson who is in the queue (recognized the caller ID and puts the customer's name up)
- Call recording (a must, including making it easy to access, review, and download the audio files)
- Voice mail.
- Call forwarding to outside numbers (sales guys want this so customers can reach their mobile phones after hours and weekends)
- Easy to get to and execute programming and changes
- Ability to record custom prompts
- And other items that provide the customer the feel we're a big professional biz (which we are growing to).
