You may recall that we recently published a blog about the new Avaya Messaging System. With the new Avaya Messaging System giving professionals the ability to easily communicate via text messaging comes the question, will the landline still retain its importance in the workplace? In a word: yes. Though text messaging using mobile devices is one of the most common ways that professionals communicate, the Avaya Messaging System allows them to communicate using the landline phone number, therefore giving all of the messages the corporate stamp of approval. Landline phones will retain their importance for a couple of other reasons as well.
- Accessibility – Professionals want all of their devices easily linked together so that they can communicate from anywhere at any time. The office landline phone will start serving as the central hub to connect all mobile devices with one business number.
- Ease of use – When you’re actually at your desk, it is just as simple to use your office phone as it is to use a mobile means of communication, if not simpler. Everything you need is right at your fingertips and that phone will contain all of your information, just like your cell or other mobile device. You still need to talk on the phone and discuss with colleagues and clients, which the office phone allows you to do.
- Data synchronization – Your office phone makes all of your phone numbers and data available to your mobile device. People want all of their devices unified so that they have the ability to listen to voicemail or find a phone number from their office phone on their cellular or mobile device, but it also ensures that if your mobile device dies or you lose it, all of your information is still safe in one place.
Even though the landline office phone has been in use for decades, it can easily maintain its status and become even more useful as a unifying hub for mobile devices. It can continue to make communication easier and more accessible for all types of professionals.
