Advantages of a Windows based PBX

Last week I released a whitepaper explaining the advantages of a Windows based PBX over an appliance or a linux based PBX. I detailed the top 10 benefits. You can view the whitepaper in PDF format here. 

I also created a short presentation on youtube. Feedback welcome!

3CX checks in at hotels worldwide to bring VoIP to Hospitality industry

I read somewhere that about 30% of telephony ports worldwide are installed at Hotels. That might be exaggerated, but undoubtedly there are a lot of hotels worldwide with large phone systems in place.

And most of these hotel pbx systems are overpriced, aging and ‘under featured’. A huge opportunity therefore for 3CX. 

I am convinced that a software based PBX, with its flexibility and adaptability can be more easily integrated with hotel software then a traditional PBX, an appliance or a Linux based PBX. Furthermore, the hospitality industry can greatly benefit from voice applications.

So I am happy to announce the release of 3CX Hotel Module – which turns 3CX Phone System in to a full featured hotel PBX that supports Check in, Check out, DND, Maid status, billing, guest voice mail and more. And supports popular hotel software such as Fidelio and more.
