ICS brings IP technology to SME fingertips at IP’07
Ascot business telephone specialist ICS is set to launch its brand new Internet Protocol (IP) package, Fingertips, to the UK market at this year’s IP’07. The system, designed to cut businesses’ line rental by up to 50% and significantly reduce call costs, is specifically aimed at levelling the communications playing field between SMEs/start-ups and their big-business counterparts.
“IP’07 is the perfect platform for launching Fingertips,” enthuses ICS managing director, John Gillborn. “IP is ‘next generation’ in terms of business communications so now’s the perfect time to take advantage of this technology before it’s considered the norm – the competitive edge it offers small businesses is significant.”
Fingertips technology is available in a range of tailored systems and comes with the option to rent hardware. Benefits include:
- A universal number that allows home workers and field personnel to make calls as though from the office
- Free inter-office calls
- Fingertips telephone numbers aren’t area-dependent – if the business moves, the number can move with it
- Small businesses and start-ups have the functionality of a large switchboard – even if there’s only one or two handsets
- Call recipients don’t require IP technology
John explains: “One of the most appealing aspects of Fingertips is how easy it is to set up. Because it uses broadband technology, there’s no need to lay any cables and in most cases changing a phone line to an IP line doesn’t even require a visit from an engineer. Once it’s done, any broadband line can be used to make a call from your number – you just need to plug in and talk.”
ICS will be showcasing the Fingertips technology at stand 384 during IP’07, Earls Court, London, 16-17 October 2007.
