Repurpose Cisco Phones to work with 3CX

   Give your Cisco phones a new life with 3CX Since we have been deploying the 3CX platform over the last six months we have had success repurposing Cisco phones to the 3CX platform. We have a school district in north Texas that is in a proof of concept phase and currently has a Cisco phone system. We have helped him over the last three years upgrade his phone system, even though we saved him money on the labor for the upgrades he is facing a huge Smartnet renewal. The issue with the current phone systems is that they are expensive, hard to upgrade and did I say expensive  100mg viagra . Why should you spend tens of thousands of dollars on a phone system? The 3CX platform performs as well and is sometimes less than a third of what a new Cisco phone system runs. The school was facing a forklift upgrade of hardware and software, that would have cost approximately $25,000.00. Repurposing the Cisco phones saved him $50,000.00 in new phones and allows him to retire the Cisco p...

3CX Hosted Voice Scores High Marks

Jacksboro Independent School District  (ISD) is a public school district based in Jacksboro, Texas. Jacksboro ISD receives funding under a U.S. federal program called E-rate, which provides schools with discounts on telecommunications services to support connectivity and Internet use. E-rate began to phase out funding for voice service in the last year, shifting its contributions to support advanced communications systems instead.   The school district wanted to preserve the considerable funding it received from the E-Rate program, but that meant a major overhaul of its legacy Cisco phone system, one that would have cost more than $50,000.

3CX Cloud SBC

  AustenTel has developed a Cloud SBC for 3CX and works well on other platforms like Cisco. Our team has spent three years developing this solution for 3CX. We are a 3CX Platinum Partner and host around 3500 extensions for multiple schools, cities and business in Texas. We built the platform for our own use, but have since decided to release it to other 3CX partners that want a solution that requires no on premise solution, like 3CX SBC on a Raspberry PII. This Cloud SBC allows you to provision your endpoints to your 3CX on any Cloud platform, including 3CX’s hosted platform. We are currently developing a WebUI so that there will be some statistics and feedback from you endpoints. This should be on our site in the second quarter of 2022. In the meantime we can still provision your extensions and you will be amazed at the quality of the calls and easy provisioning. We also offer 3CX support and hosting for your 3CX server that includes our Cloud SBC in the hosting packag...
