Why NFON's cloud phone system is a sound business investment

Accessible from anywhere and helping you stay connected at all times, Cloudya could be the upgrade that your organisation has been waiting for

Communication is crucial to the success of every business, but many firms are still using outdated phone systems that are expensive to maintain. For example, ringing someone’s desk phone and leaving a message seems old-fashioned in an age of mobile devices and flexible working.

NFON understands the importance of staying connected at all times – and that’s the aim of its innovative Cloudya telephone system.

Phone system accessible from anywhere

Cloudya is accessible from anywhere with an internet connection

Simple, flexible and reliable, NFON's cloud-based technology is designed to be available wherever, whenever and however it’s needed. Instead of numerous phone numbers and inboxes, which can increase the risk of missing vital calls, Cloudya offers an effective alternative.

Each employee is given a single phone number and voicemail inbox, which enables them to place and receive calls from both colleagues and customers. As the system is accessible from anywhere with an internet connection, they can work just as easily from the office, their home, or on the move, via a smartphone or laptop.

Cloudya’s simple interface enables them to prioritise incoming calls, set up conference calls and view the availability of colleagues. It’s also easy to forward calls when required.

Seamless integration with Windows

There are also plenty of other benefits too. For example, users can make calls directly from their computers, then hand them over to their smartphones when they need to leave the office. They can also receive faxes digitally, rather than standing around an old fax machine, and pick up voicemails that are stored digitally as audio files should they miss a call.

As Cloudya integrates seamlessly with Windows, macOS, Android, and iOS systems, users can always stay in touch, regardless of whether they’re using a MacBook Pro, desktop PC or Samsung phone. The fact it’s platform agnostic is particularly appealing when you consider increasing numbers of people are wanting to work flexibly, which could be potentially beneficial to their employers.

Pay as you go cloud telephone system

From a business perspective, Cloudya comes with a scalable, pay-as-you-go pricing model that’s based on usage. This means businesses aren’t forced to pay for unwanted minutes or services.

There are no long-term contracts and set-up costs are low in comparison to traditional PBX systems. NFON is also very secure, with all services guaranteed and TÜV certified.

With access to expert support 24/7, the system also ensures everyone can work efficiently, round-the-clock, without costly interruptions and downtimes.

An added bonus is there’s no expensive outlay for hardware, while the company’s technical staff will benefit from having less physical infrastructure to maintain.
