It’s natural for your staff to prefer to use their mobiles in the office rather than their desk phones. Fixed Mobile Convergence (FMC) allows them to do this … but without the high mobile call costs. FMC enables mobile phones to become an extension of your telephone system - with all of the associated benefits, such as call holding and transfers, plus access to central directories.
In essence, FMC blurs the distinction between your office phone and your mobile by giving you the best of both worlds. FMC is a great idea – whether your business has just a few people or hundreds.
FMC gives you greater power over how your calls are made and received. With STL, there are no strict rules. We can customise your solution to fit your needs. Here are just a few examples of what’s possible.
Options available to you:
- Rather than each employee having an office phone number and a mobile one, you could have a single landline number – that makes both handsets ring. This makes it easier for customers. And if your employee leaves – they don’t take their mobile number with them.
- You could go a step further and replace office phones and mobiles with just one smart phone for each person to use on-site or on the road. Much simpler.
- When office-based employees use mobiles or smart phones, their calls can be routed automatically over your landline (to save money) or connected far more cheaply (or sometimes for free) to other mobiles used by colleagues via the mobile network. This enables you to take the cheaper call-routing option whenever it’s available.
- With STL and our partners, it’s possible to download powerful call features, such as phone directories, so you can transfer calls to colleagues from your smart phone, even if you’re miles away from the office.
