Typical Installation?

[Anonymous]

We have 3 incoming Bell business lines and a late model Dell Server running MS SBS professional with 10 seat license. Fairly short runs of cable to workstation computers.

Our intention is to purchase one of the newly introduced Grandstream Networks 4 line Analogue gateways and 7 of their GXP-2000 phones.

Although some bells and whistles down the road would be nice our main concern is just getting in place a fairly simple pbx for our 7 employees.

One salesperson expressed concern we would even consider a new windows based IP VOIP solution and also thought we should run our IP PBX off a separate server as we could see some voice degradation if run thru our office server.

Any comments?

Hi,

Thanks for your feedback.

Our personal experience with Grandsteam devices has so far been very positive, not only are they well behaved devices that they also have increasingly more interesting features.

As of the issue of getting a separate server I can say that this is maybe not 100% necessary, but obviously it would defenitly help. This is especially if stability and quality of phone calls are essential. You will not be needing anything hi-tech so even perhaps an old machine will do (to act as a PBX server).

I hope you find what you are looking for, feel free to share any experiences you might have with the 3CXPhoneSystem. You are more than welcome to post any questions here on the forums.
