Crown Equity Holdings Inc. (OTCBB:CRWE) announced that its subsidiary company, Crown Tele Services Inc. (http://www.crownteleservices.com) is still moving forward after dissolving its joint venture with Communication Expert Corporation and will gradually start rolling out its internet based voice and video service IP-PBX solutions this year.
Hosted IP-PBX gives enterprises of all sizes the most efficient phone system calling features typically offered to only the largest enterprises. No in-house systems or software to purchase, manage and maintain is required for the phone system to function
Hosted IP-PBX lets you share a number of incoming phone lines among a larger number of extensions, so it’s not necessary to pay for a separate line for every office employee or workstation, which saves money. But the implementation and ongoing maintenance of an VOIP PBX system requires a type of expertise that your IT staff may not have. And if you go with a commercial product, the up-front costs for the hardware and software may be high.
With data, Internet and telephone solutions from Crown TeleServices, your business, large or small, will get the telecommunication services it needs to succeed. After all, business isn�t just about making contacts. It�s about making strong connections. Connections that can help you get more accomplished in less time.
