IP Centrex Solution

Business Opportunity

The birth of Voice-over-IP technology in mid 1990s and its rapid development in the early 2000s has led to fast innovation in the telecom sector. VoIP technology today allows telecom providers to deliver traditional telecom services, such as Centrex, over IP networks to their subscribers (IP Centrex). As a result, modern telecom providers are no longer limited to their local markets and can market their services on a worldwide basis.

One of the early fruits of telecom innovation was the introduction of IP Centrex services. The IP Centrex business model is an enhanced version of the traditional Centrex model, where end-users enjoy popular PBX features, such as call hold, call transfer, last number look-up and redial, call forward, and three-way calling without the need to own expensive PBX systems. IP Centrex allows delivery of same features over broadband connections. The IP Centrex business model appeals to providers as it offers a low costly into the lucrative market for VoIP services.
