Benefits of using Direct Inward Dialing Service

Direct inward dialing (DID) is a service provided by a dial tone carrier or communication service provider. Typically the carrier allocates a range of telephone numbers that are routed to a company’s existing dial tone in its phone system. DID service allows an outside caller to directly reach an extension (or group of extensions ex. Service dept.) of an office without the assistance of a receptionist or automated attendant by assigning DID numbers to a business. DID numbers have become important in IP communications in connection with SIP trunks and hosted phone systems. To learn more about DID service please click here. There are several advantages to using DID numbers. Local Presence: Obtaining DID numbers can offer a company the ability to appear to be a part of the local community but yet not have a physical location in the area. Customers typically prefer to conduct business with local vendors because it offers a higher level of comfort; close access, faster service and more accountability. If you use DID numbers, your telephone number is no longer restricted by your geographical location. For example, your business office is in New Jersey but you want to seek clients in New York. You can have your dial tone carrier provide a DID telephone number that is “local” to New York (a 212 area code) and have it forwarded to your PBX system in New Jersey. Potential clients seeing this telephone number advertised will get the impression that you have a local presence in New York. If you have local numbers across multiple locations, you can increase your probability of getting calls for new business. Cost Savings: There are several cost savings associated with DID numbers. If your business has multiple locations, you can save money by investing in a single phone system, installing it at the main location. Utilizing IP technology and DID numbers, you can install IP phones at the remote locations and have DID numbers local to each location assigned to your dial tone at the main location. This eliminates the cost and maintenance of a PBX at each site and the associated monthly dial tone bills. Lower labor Expenses: DID service can lower your labor costs by minimizing receptionist duties. If you assign DIDs to every employee, any caller may directly reach their intended party by dialing the DID of the employee, thereby eliminating or minimizing the duties of an operator. Rather than answering every incoming call, the receptionist can be reached only when needed by the incoming caller. This enables the receptionist to attend to other duties during the day. Efficiency: These days, calls want to reach their intended recipient as fast as possible. Callers do not appreciate being placed on hold, listening to an automated attendant, or going through several option prompts to reach the employee. Many do not know or recall the extension of the employee and get irritated when requested to dial the party’s name, especially if it is the last name. Assigning DIDs to every employee, gives callers quick and direct access to each employee. Hold times will be shortened, caller frustration will be minimized and telephone traffic will be managed more efficiently. Higher Customer Appreciation: Last but not least, clients tend to feel that they are getting a better level of service when they are able to directly reach an individual. There is a more personal component when you call the employee and not the company. In summary, businesses are choosing to incorporate DIDs into its communications solution to gain a competitive edge.

Eight Ways to Mobilize your Organization

Ensure Business continuity. If there is a local power failure, your phone lines go down or there is a natural disaster, 75% of your remote employees would still be able to work. Reduce your attrition rate. Attrition can be expensive for an organization; job postings, interviewing, paperwork and training. Two thirds of employees would change their job to reduce commuting time and costs and 95% of employers claim that offering remote privileges increases staff retention. Increase Employee Accessibility. Decisions and projects are delayed because of a delay in reaching key employees. Collaborations are negatively affected when all team members cannot be reached simultaneously. In fact, at least 2 hours a week, per staff member are wasted because of a communication problems. Equipment Savings with BYOD. More and more, employees increasingly want to bring their own device to communicate and access data at work. More than 50% of employers will require it by 2017. It will save them money (reduce hardware, licensing and maintenance costs), increase employee productivity (employees are more comfortable and work faster using their familiar device) and increase employee satisfaction (work flexibility). Increase Productivity. While there is a $600 billion dollar loss attributed to staff distraction, 66% of employers claim an increase in productivity in remote workers. Some companies report that remote workers out produce the onsite workers. Decreased real estate costs. Less employees at the office require less office space. It is an average of $10,000 per full time employee; $68 million for major real IT organizations. Reduction is unscheduled time off. Did you know that 78% of employees taking a sick day are really healthy? Unscheduled absences creates a $300 billion dollar loss to American employers. However, employees who have the ability to remotely work from home will more likely work when they are sick. This is because they do not have to get ready for work or commute and they have the comforts of home at their disposal. Employers also benefit from sick staff remotely working because they will not infect coworkers. Reduce Staff Compensation. According to statistics, 36% of workers would forgo a raise to work from home, and 37% of IT employees would take a pay cut to work at home.

I. 911 and e911 Notice and Disclosure. There are differences between the 911 and E911 access capabilities available through Your System (“VoIP 911 and E911 Service”) as compared to the 911 and E911 access capability available with traditional wired non-VoIP telephone systems. By executing this Agreement and activating your Licenses, You affirmatively acknowledge that (i) You have read and understand this Section and Your dial tone carrier’s 911 and e-911 warnings, (ii) You may not be able to contact emergency services by dialing 9-1-1 using the VoIP 911 and E911 Service and (iii) You must inform Users of the Services that they may not be able to contact emergency services by dialing 9-1-1 using the VoIP 911 and E911 Service. Your dial tone carrier provides You access to emergency calling services, allowing You to access either basic 911 or Enhanced 911 (E911) service. Your access may differ depending on Your location or the device You are using, and emergency calling services work differently than traditional wireline or wireless telephones. It is strongly recommended that You have an alternative means for placing emergency calls available at all times. Wildix IP Desk Phone or Soft Phones (“Phones”) can dial 911. Calls to 911 placed through the Wildix Mobile Application on a smartphone are automatically routed to the native dialer on the smartphone, and the call will be handled by Your wireless service provider if wireless service is available.

Your “Registered Address” is the address of the physical location where You will use Your Wildix Phones. Comtex does not control whether or not the emergency operator receives Your telephone number and Registered Address. B. Service limitations. 911 service will not function in the event of an Internet or power outage, if You do not have cellular service (on the Wildix Mobile Application), or if Your broadband, ISP, or Licenses are terminated or expire. The Wildix Mobile Application cannot send emergency calls over Wi-Fi access. C. Registering Your Location.

You must register the address of where any remote phones are physically located. You acknowledge that if You do not update the Registered Address, any 911 calls made from the device may be sent to the wrong emergency response center and will not transmit Your current location information to emergency responders, delaying emergency assistance to You. D. Notification of Employees, Guests, or Other Users. You agree to notify any employees, contractors, guests, or persons who may place calls using the System or may be present at the physical location where the System may be used, of the limitations of 911 Service from Your Wildix Phones.

Read This Before You Invest in a New Telephone System

There are many things to consider before investing in a new telephone system. While the equipment is extremely important, there are other factors that must be a part of the process; dial tone, system features and the vendor. Your vendor is truly the most important part of this process. They will guide you through the process and you will rely on them to make this a smooth transition. After all, if your system does not work, you have no connection to your clients. Most phone systems are the same with a few exceptions in features offered; the biggest decision is whether to use a hosted solution or invest in an on premise system. The more important decision is the vendor you choose to implement your communication platform. You should align your business with a vendor, like Comtex, who has the ability, experience and product knowledge to get the best out of your investment, through effective programming, repair and ongoing support. Comtex has evidenced its business longevity in the telecom field with over 56 years of customer support and satisfaction. Questions to ask your on premise vendor: How long have you been in business? (evidences experience) How many years have you been a certified dealer for the systems you sell? (evidences experience with programming and service) When did the system come to market? How many technicians do you employ? How many programmers do you employ? Do you offer 24/7 emergency service? Is there a live person during working hours to take my calls? Do you hire subcontractors? Did you offer references? What is your warranty? Our industry has “trunkers’. A one man shop, with a professional website, with pictures of “employees”. In reality they have no office (they use the home address), no warehouse to stock replacement equipment, hire subcontractors to assist them when they need more manpower and send all incoming calls to a cell phone. This may impact your future service needs. You want a vendor who has a reputation in the industry; one who will be there for you before, during and after the installation. The true test if after the installation when you need changes, upgrades or support. DIAL TONE AND INTERNET You should compile a list of your dial tone carrier(s) and internet provider and a copy of your most recent bills. The first piece of information you should know is when the carrier contracts expire. You may want or need to switch carriers. Please call your dial tone and internet carriers to confirm the date your contract expires and have them put it in writing. Mark your calendar 2 months prior to that date to investigate other carriers. Also find out when you must give notice in writing to the carrier. (usually 30 days prior to contract expiration). Your dial tone may impact the features you want to use in your new system. For example, you need a PRI or SIP trunks for DIDs (direct inward dialing), an out of state phone number to ring into your office or to send calls to a cell phone. You should contact your current dial tone carrier(s) if you are under any contract term. You do not want to buy a system and not be able to connect to the type of dial tone that you will need for certain features. Your will need to contact your internet provider to find out if you have a static IP address and confirm your current bandwidth at your office. The new phone systems require a static IP address to allow the phone vendor to remotely access your phone system for programming and diagnostics. You will also need sufficient bandwidth if you are using IP phone and SIP trunks. Your phone vendor will help you with these things. SYSTEM REQUIREMENTS The configuration and features of a system and the cabling in your office, will help your vendor determine which type of system, hosted or on premise, would work best for your company. What type of cabling do you currently have going to your phones? CAT3 voice or CAT5 data? How many telephones do you want in the office? Do you need any analog phones/devices in the system (cordless phone, fax or conference phone)? Do you have more than one office location? If so, do you want the locations connected? Are there any remote (off site) workers that you want connected to the system? Do you want any enterprise features? ACD, voice mail to email, calls to a cell phone, contact center solutions, etc.
