Outlined are the outstanding benefits of an Noojee PBX for Asterisk.

Choose the Cheapest Call Rate

An Noojee  PBX will connect to any telecommunications provider and just about any of the new generation Voice Over IP (VoIP) providers that are in the market.  The benefit is that with an Noojee  PBX, you can connect to whichever service provides the best value for money. In fact, with an Noojee PBX, you can even connect to multiple services and have Asterisk send calls over the services which provides the cheapest call rates for any given call.

Costs Savings on Long Distance Calls

An Noojee PBX is shipped ready to connect to a VoIP provider which yields direct cost savings on long distance calls.  IP based PBX, such as Asterisk, when coupled with a VoIP provider (provide Internet phone calls) delivers un-timed National Calls and significantly discounted International calls.  Local calls can often be discounted to Telstra's standard rate.  Calls to other people who use the same VoIP provider are generally free.  While savings will differ based on your usage patterns, typically they will be in the 30-50% range.

Savings on line costs

Another benefit of an IP based PBX such as Noojee PBX is the savings on line costs.  When you start making calls using an Noojee PBX using VoIP, most organisations will find that they can reduce the number of PSTN (Telstra, Optus) lines into their business.

Cheap Land Line to Mobile calls

Many people are not aware that making a call from a lan (local-area network) line phone to a mobile phone is the most expensive type of call you can make. Mobile to mobile calls are far cheaper and some mobile telephone providers even provide free calls within their own network.  With an Noojee PBX, and the addition of a 'Mobile Phone Gateway', Asterisk can turn any call to a mobile phone from your office phone into a low cost mobile to mobile call.  Organisations which have a number of sales staff on the road with mobile phones can gain access to significant savings by the addition of a 'Mobile Phone Gateway'.

In some circumstances, the savings achieved from a mobile gateway are enough to pay for the complete PBX in under 12 months.

Integration

One of Noojee PBX for Asterisk's great strengths is its ability to integrate with your existing business infrastructure. A Noojee PBX can be directly integrated with your business systems such as Customer Relationship Management System,  databases and email.  An integrated solution can deliver 'Click to Dial', Screen Pops, Fax management and a variety of other applications all from your user's PC.

Unified Messaging - Fax, Voicemail and Email

An Noojee  PBX provides the ability to have all of your messages delivered to your email inbox. 

    - Voicemail

        - Asterisk can be configured to deliver any voicemails directly to your email client.  Just click on the

          message and you can listen to your voicemail directly from your computer.

    - Fax

        - By adding Noojee Fax, your Noojee PBX is able to send and receive facsimiles directly to and from your existing email client.

With a Noojee PBX  all your messages arrive at a single location which makes life so much more simple.  With Noojee Fax, you no longer need a private fax machine for sending/receiving sensitive documents as the documents are delivered directly to your email in-box.

Microsoft Outlook Integration

With the addition of a small software installation on each desktop, users of Microsoft Outlook can now dial a number directly from an Outlook contact.  Just find the contacts details in Outlook, right click their phone number and click 'Dial'.  The call will be placed for you.

Savings on Cabling

When fitting out a new office or renovating an existing one, the cost of cabling can be quire extensive.  An Noojee PBX system will run over the same cables as your computers.  For small installations a single cable to each desktop is sufficient to provide a connection for a telephone and a computer (this does require a telephone handset which includes an Ethernet pass through option).  For larger installations, we recommend having a separate set of cables for the telephony system.  Even in these circumstances, savings are possible as only a single type of cable needs to be installed.

Low Cost access to advanced telephone features.

As the Noojee  PBX is a new generation telephone system, it delivers new price points on standard features which make them affordable to even small business, while adding new advanced features.  This is the most significant advantage of an Noojee  PBX when comparing it to other VoIP based PBXs. 

Previously, features such as call queuing, digital receptionist and voicemail were only available in high end PBXs.  With an Noojee PBX, the same set of features are delivered in every system, which means that even small businesses get access to the same advanced features as large corporations.

Mobility

With an Noojee  PBX the definition of a telephone extension has changed.  A telephone extension is no longer a fixed device at a fixed location.  Employees working from home or on the move can now make phone calls to office extensions (or anywhere else for that matter) as if they were sitting at their desk in the office.  The inverse is also true; an Asterisk PABX can be configured so that it knows where you are and routes incoming calls to you no matter where you are.  Travelling staff can pack a VoIP handset (which can be as small as a Bluetooth headset when used in conjunction with a laptop) and make calls from anywhere that a broadband Internet connection is available.

Advanced Billing and Call Accounting Services

All Noojee  PBXs come with a call accounting service so that you can keep track of each call made including source and destination number, duration etc.  This can be used to track call usage of different departments.

Optional advanced modules are also available to provide web based reporting tools where required.

Free Inter-Office calls with a Multi-Branch PBX

Every Noojee  PBX has the ability to connect to one or more Noojee  PBXs.  This means that its very easy to connect multiple offices and route calls between them. Add a reliable Internet Connection at each end an you can start making free calls between offices even if they are located interstate or internationally.

Keep your old PBX

For organisations which have a large investment in their existing PBX, a Noojee PBX can be installed along side, giving you the added benefits without having to throw your old Telephone system away. 

It is often far cheaper to install an Noojee PBX along side your existing PBX that it is to upgrade your existing system.

Scalability

Asterisk technology scales from small offices with 6-7 phones, to large scale enterprises with thousands of phones spread across the globe. You can scale up an Noojee PBX by adding additional PBXs or up-sizing the existing server.  It is important to note that even when up-sizing you can still use the same version of Asterisk, therefore you don't lose any investments you have made in customising, purchasing peripheral systems or handsets.  This is especially important when you start talking about integrating your business systems with your PBX using Computer Technology Integration (CTI).  The same Noojee PBX technology can be used whether you are a small 5 employee business or a global enterprise, system compatibility will be maintained as you grow to bigger systems.

Open Standards means no Lock-In

The Noojee  PBX is based on Asterisk which is built on open standards which means that you are not locked into any single vendor for support. Noojee PBX also operates with standards based (SIP) phones so that if you decided to move to another PBX, you wouldn't need to throw your phones away.  You can mix and match phones from multiple vendors such as Cisco, Polycom and Snom.
