We are in the process of organising an office move and will need to install a network telephone system. Nothing fancy, just a reception phone and eight desk phones with call transfer.


Prices and specs vary widely and I have no idea what system to go for, so thought I?d put it out there for anyone in ED who may have some idea which suppliers/systems etc might be worth checking out.

If you have a decent internet connection available (fibre preferable for that many users) then you could go for a PC based system like 3CX. It'll be less costly than installing a full PBX.


Each desk would need a network point though and you'd need to sign up for a VoIP account too.


Do you have a budget in mind? I can put you in touch with someone if you want to PM me.

Price is the primary consideration at the moment as our cash flow is tight because we are taking a 10 year lease on a new place after having been in a semi-serviced office so need to pay quite a lot out to get it ready.


I'd love more info and pointers as this is the first time I've had to consider these things.

    • Hi, I am from the Southwark Day Centre and could collect some apples if I am. It too late... Bettina 
    • Labour's latest Rye Lane Ward newsletter is now saying that demolition in the square will start this summer and that the wider station upgrade is expected to be signed off this year - as explained above, sadly wrong on both counts. It describes the renovation of adjacent buildings on Blenheim Grove as "successful", despite having lain empty for a couple of years, longer than the actual renovation works, before saying "the Council is hopeful [it] will see its first new occupants move in to this year". Cue desperate attempt to get at least one in before end of financial year? As for the other topic, in "November 2023, faced with a huge increase in graffiti across the borough, Labour-run Southwark council took action". Nice turn of phrase eh? Rather, after community pressure regarding years of inaction by said Labour-run council, it's finally started to do a little bit, a little late. Surely there would be more chance of resolving issues if our council could for once be part of an honest, informed discussion?
    • I don’t think anyone has mentioned Peckham FoodCycle yet, they might enjoy some apples! https://foodcycle.org.uk/location/foodcycle-peckham-saturdays/
    • Just wanted to recommend Roger from Critter Solutions Pest Control if anyone’s dealing with mice or other unwanted guests. We had a sudden issue with mice in our home's kitchen and after calling around, these guys were by far the most responsive and professional. Roger arrived on time, was really friendly, and took the time to explain what he was doing and why. He did a full inspection and sealed up some access points we hadn’t even noticed. Since his treatment we haven’t seen or heard anything since. What I appreciated most was that it didn’t feel like a rushed job or a hard sell – just honest advice and thorough work. All backed with a guarantee.  Would definitely use them again (hopefully won’t need to!) and thought I’d share in case anyone local is looking.
