Bicom Systems
Small to medium-sized businesses looking for a reliable and flexible communication solution would definitely see their IP telephony taken to the next step with PBXware and its ability to configure lots of different call scenarios, have an ability to manage their working hours very precisely but also businesses with multiple locations that require centralized communication and management or even service providers looking to offer their own hosted PBX services to their clients. I would end by saying that call centers or customer service departments that require advanced call routing and management features would definitely be satisfied using PBXware Call Center edition and gloCOM Agent & Supervisor edition that contains advanced queue features and real time monitoring.

Having the ability to use Muli-Tenant and one single instance definitely made us stand out whenever prospects were seeking for a new UcaaS solution for their company. The fact that we can make extremely detailed scenarios easily within PBXware also makes Bicom Systems a solution of choice. Also the ability to fully brand every single product is something that prospects were seeking for and are satisfied today using Bicom Systems products. PBXware offers a range of flexible licensing options, including both perpetual and subscription licenses, which makes it easier for businesses to scale up or down as needed. 3CX only offers subscription-based licenses.
