[Q&A] – 6 misconceptions about virtual call center services

Reading time: 5 minutes

Communication is the lifeblood of any business. It’s arguably the way every business connects and collaborates with customers, employees, and partners through virtual call center services.

However, many people still misunderstand and have inaccurate perceptions of this virtual call center software. In this article, OMICall will help you clarify 6 misconceptions about virtual call center services so you can better understand them before deploying the system. Let’s find out!

Expensive mistakes when choosing a cloud-based call center system

Today’s virtual call center systems are very powerful and effective. They are tools that help businesses accomplish more quickly.

However, when purchasing and deploying a new call center system, it’s crucial to ensure you’re taking the right steps to reap the benefits that the call center software can offer. Otherwise, you may be wasting valuable business time and resources.

Common Misconceptions About Virtual PBX Services

To avoid these costly mistakes, consider the following suggestions:

1. Virtual PBX Systems Are Too Expensive

The high cost is a common misconception when it comes to virtual PBX services. In reality, virtual PBXs have very low upfront costs. You can connect even to your existing mobile devices, computers, and tablets. This saves you significantly more than buying a traditional PBX, which costs at least three times as much.

On the other hand, businesses often have to pay a considerable amount for installation and setup. In contrast, with a smart virtual PBX, you don’t have to spend money on installation or investing in telecommunications infrastructure.

Furthermore, they are not only flexible but also offer scalability, meaning you can control the system’s operation based on the number of calls. Therefore, whether it’s two calls or two thousand calls, the cost remains manageable.

2. Poor, unclear voice

Virtual PBX systems used to have a bad reputation for unclear and very poor sound quality, but today, with advancements in technology, this is no longer an issue.

In some cases, the voice quality of a virtual PBX is even better than that of a regular landline phone. The important thing is that they have a good, high-bandwidth connection to ensure uninterrupted service.

3. Virtual PBX systems pose security risks

The idea that virtual PBX systems pose risks or are insecure is incorrect. When businesses use virtual PBX systems, all information is absolutely secure thanks to cloud computing data encryption technology.

Thanks to this, businesses can minimize the risk of malicious actors accessing and leaking customer information.

In addition to security systems, virtual call centers also provide call storage, missed call/voicemail alerts, etc., helping businesses avoid missing any potential customers.

4. Virtual call centers are not widely used

Some argue that virtual call centers are only suitable for technology companies and businesses, but now, virtual call center systems have become one of the most popular technologies due to their ease and flexibility in communication, making them accessible to any business.

5. Deployment and management are complex

OMICall is one of the easiest virtual call center systems to install because all processes are handled by the service provider. Once the system is deployed, the OMICall technical team will take over management and maintenance. Any system issues are easily reported online, and any errors (if any) are quickly fixed via the network.

6. Unable to reuse old phone numbers

This is also a concern for many businesses when registering for a virtual call center: they cannot reuse their old phone numbers and must replace them with new ones.

Understanding this, OMICall software allows users to easily transfer old numbers to the new system. This allows businesses to retain their old phone numbers while providing customers with a better experience.
