Cloud/Hosted VoIP Phone Systems vs. Premise Based VoIP Phone Systems



Cloud/Hosted VoIP systems, also known as "UCaaS" have become a preferred choice for many that are looking for a new voice solution for their offices. And on the surface it's easy to see why. In most cases there is a small initial investment, one bill for equipment and service, the entire solution managed entirely by your hosted provider, latest technology, etc. However there are advantages and disadvantages to both cloud/hosted VoIP as well as the traditional premise based VoIP designs that should be considered before investing in a new solution for your office. Office Telesystems has taken this into consideration, which is why we offer both cloud and premise based options.





Advantages and Disadvantages to Premise Based and Hosted Solutions

Premise Based (server on site) Solutions (CapEx or OpEx)

Pros
Favorable total cost of ownership long term for just a few sites
Security of network  
Control of your own equipment, service
Comparable feature set to hosted
More features on desk sets
Higher level of equipment support/dealer support
Life span‐once purchase or lease is completed, retain benefits of equipment after lease with no equipment payments (the average phone system lifespan is 7-10 years)
CapEx or OpEx financial options
Remote worker options

Cons
Upfront equipment cost for CapEx/cash purchase (OpEx lease can offset this)
Integration to separate services provider, 2 or more bills
Cost of professional services added to initial CapEx 
Cost of upgrades (wrap into your lease to offset this)
Equipment possibly outdated quickly or no future upgrades available (Make sure your equipment is NEW or supported by manufacturer and provides software updates)

Cloud/Hosted VoIP Solutions Pros and Cons (OpEx)

Most require minimum 3 year contract term
