Winnipeg, MB (PRWEB) November 14, 2008 -- MTS Allstream Inc. ("MTS Allstream") today announced the launch of its new Hosted Phone System for small businesses in the Greater Toronto Area. The Hosted Phone System helps small businesses reduce capital costs and increase productivity by leaving the management of the phone system to the technology experts at MTS Allstream.
"At MTS Allstream, we understand that time is extremely valuable for small business owners," said Russ Friesen, Vice-President National Small Business Markets, Consumer Markets division. "We want to help small business owners focus on running their business instead of dealing with costs and frustrations of buying and maintaining an on-site phone system. With our new Hosted Phone System, MTS Allstream provides the communication equipment and manages the installation and maintenance, so there's no need for capital expenditures. Best of all, businesses can keep any existing phone numbers, which means the transition to the Hosted Phone System is seamless."
The MTS Allstream Hosted Phone System is a Hosted PBX that runs over Allstream's privately managed, secure data network, which ensures high voice quality and business-grade service. Web-based tools enable customers to manage their phone system easily and efficiently, and to customize the features for each employee's phone. Small business owners choose the number of phones they need and the right package of features for each user. As business grows, new phones and new users can be added.
The Hosted Phone System enables small business owners to increase productivity with features such as:
| | - Find Me: Publish a single number and calls can be routed to several phone numbers based on user preferences. Never miss a critical call again.
- One Voice Mailbox: Calls terminate in one voice mailbox if a call is not answered, eliminating the need for multiple voicemail services.
- Visual Voicemail: View voicemail and listen to messages through the Hosted Phone System end user portal. Messages can be forwarded to any e-mail address, so users can manage voice messages just like e-mails.
- Personal Direct Phone Number: Each user can have a personal direct phone number, enabling customers to dial employees directly and therefore reduce customer wait times.
