5 Reasons to Switch from Your Legacy PRI to SIP Trunking

Why Choose SIP Trunking over Legacy PRI? Legacy PRI is a phone service that many businesses have for their telephone needs. Legacy PRI is also known as Primary Rate Interface, and it has been around for decades. The problem with legacy PRI is that it does not provide the same advanced features that SIP trunking does. In this blog post, we will discuss 5 reasons to switch from your legacy PRI to SIP Trunking so you can increase productivity and save money on your communications expenses! Save Money Although phone service comes down to more than cost, there’s no denying the attractiveness of saving money when migrating from a legacy telecom system. SIP trunks can save you money in two ways: With SIP trunks, long-distance and international calls are often charged as local. That’s because the voice travels most of its way over IP lines before connecting with Public Switch Telephone Network (PSTN) to route locally destinations. SIP trunk providers are the future of telecommunications. They offer pay-as-you-go pricing, which means you only need to start paying for what you use rather than getting locked into expensive monthly plans with fixed contracts and lengthy commitments where your unused minutes just get added onto a bill that will never be used. Quickly Scale Up or Down SIP trunks can be scaled up or down to meet the needs of any business. If you need more employees in your headquarters, seasonal call capacity around winter holidays, or if you want to pare down phone service that’s not being used in certain locations SIP trunks are perfect for scaling up and downs quickly with a cloud-based system – once they’re set up lines can easily be added or removed digitally – no complex physical installation needed! Go Global With the rise of cloud-based VoIP systems, there are a few benefits to consider. First off, SIP trunking providers often work with multiple telecom carriers for global coverage rather than just relying on their carrier networks as legacy companies do. Secondly, these partnerships help ensure both high call quality and broad networked access across 190 countries in over 1,600 partnering telecommunications service provider partners–providing you unlimited language options at your fingertips! Accessible Support If you need technical support or 24/7 customer service, SIP trunking providers are the way to go. We make it easy for our customers by providing around-the-clock help and access to quick solutions no matter what time of day. Plus, we can handle your small business needs as well! Gain Transparency Business phone service may seem like a fairly commoditized offering, with your company choosing whatever telecom provider seems to offer the lowest costs. However, there can be substantial differences between providers in areas ranging from call quality to scalability, but the technology that a provider offers can make a key difference in your overall phone service! In addition, the cloud-based nature of SIP trunk providers makes it easy to digitally keep track of phone usage even for specific lines. Zentrunk for instance offers a self-service portal where users can view Call Details such as duration and date/time which is essential when keeping tabs on employee productivity. Migrating from a legacy telecom system to VoIP is an important decision, but it can also be expensive. Some companies may find that the cost of migrating outweighs any potential benefits, and so they decide not to change their phone service at all – but this isn’t always wise!
