Remember the days of bulky phone systems with their tangled wires and limited features? Unfortunately, for many South African businesses, those days aren't entirely in the past. Traditional phone systems can be a major burden, especially these days when there are so many better and more modern options.
Relying on traditional phones means higher upfront costs that eat into expenses as well as continuous maintenance headaches. These phones also tend to lack the flexibility and scalability needed to adapt to a growing company’s needs.
There are several excellent reasons why, of all the PBX and IP phone brands on the market, Yealink and Yeastar, brands that have become the leading partners in creating advanced, modern business phones, are time and again rated as the best a company can use.
These phones are among the most sought-after by businesses looking to take the edge and what’s more is that when you opt for a rental contract, rather than outright buying your phone system, you get to enjoy all the benefits of these incredible devices while also saving loads of money.
Monthly rentals for business telephones like Yealink and Yeastar give your business a fantastic way to access high-quality office automation products that are affordable, scalable, and packed full of all sorts of highly sought-after features, when renting your equipment you also get to enjoy the latest products, ensuring that you always stay ahead of the trends.

While you might still be getting by with your traditional phone system for example Telkom copper lines, times have changed to such a degree that although your phone might still do the job, at least in a traditional way, if you are not keeping up with the latest advancements, you are missing out in a big way.
Traditional phone systems simply can’t keep up with modern technology, and whether you realise it or not, there are some struggles that you could be experiencing, and which could be holding your company back. Struggles like:
Exorbitant Costs
Phones are an essential part of your business because while some of us prefer communicating via email, there’s nothing quite as quick and convenient as having a phone call. The issue with traditional phone systems is that they often come with a hefty price tag that can stifle your growth, it’s not just the hardware that will ring up that bill, but also the installation fees.
Ongoing Maintenance Costs
The initial financial investment you’ll need to make for a traditional phone system might seem like a one-time expense, but that's far from the truth. Owning an old-school system can have a hidden hidden costs that drain your companies resources such as the ongoing costs of maintenance, technical support, and even phone service contracts.
Limited Scalability
Traditional phone systems are notorious for being uncompromising and in our hectic business world, inflexible office systems can end up holding your company back from growing and reaching its full potential. If you stick to an old phone system, you are certainly not future-proofing yourself.
Limited Features
Modern IP phones come with all sorts of awesome features that traditional phones simply can’t compete with. Instead of having to buy 6 different products to keep up with your company’s communication needs, the right kind of modern phone can do it all.
