Horizon vs. Standard PBX
 Low initial investment
 An on-demand service with no hidden
costs
 Lower call costs
 VoIP connected for greater resilience
 Enables flexible working/disaster
recovery

x Reprogramming/faults require an
on-site engineer visit
x System expansion requires
downtime and reconfiguration
x Traditional lines are more expensive
when compared to VoIP
x A reduction in staffing levels means
equipment sits around unused
x Limited ‘lifespan’ of PBX in terms of
functionality.
x Customer can easily move their
services to another provider
Standard PBX
• End to End Hosted Voice facility not delivered by the same provider
• No guaranteed channels
• High chance of Voice Quality Issues (Quality of Service) – Customer will
blame you
• More technical installation (Router settings)
