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.

    • I'm interested to know other people's experiences. As in any urban environment, I'm careful. I try not to use my phone outside  unnecessarily, and if I'm coming home by myself  late at night I also keep an eye out for any potential threats. But that doesn't mean  I "don't feel safe". It's just sensible. The only time I have ever felt seriously unsafe in London was decades ago  when I was a teenager, and that was one specific incident which could have happened anywhere. I do however try to avoid places with loads of right wing thugs getting drunk and waving flags.
    • I'm genuinely sorry if I have derailed this thread, which started off as being about a specific burglary in Lacon Road. I will start another thread in the lounge, because I think the general points being discussed are important.
    • Thanks very much for that.   I think the better informed we are, the better our discussions will be. The article contained: "That arrest had quite an impact on the [phone theft] numbers for the following month,” said Green.  Here's another indicator, admittedly a piece of police PR,  of how well-targeted police efforts, mostly invisible to us,  can when successful  seriously affect offending figures: https://news.met.police.uk/news/met-police-drive-down-theft-and-robbery-by-84-percent-in-battersea-and-nine-elms-500495.
