Recommendation needed for network telephone system

[LadyDeliah]

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.

Anyone?

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.

Will PM you with contact details.
