Cost-Efficient
Auto-provisioning works in a way which cuts costs for businesses; with a traditional PBX system, you will need an engineer to come out and install new lines and carry out maintenance on the phone system which can become costly if any problems arise.
With IP phones this is no longer a concern as auto-provisioning takes away the need for a IT specialist; the lines can be installed with just a few clicks through your hosted phone provider’s web portal.

Auto-provisioning saves users time as well as money, traditional phone systems require users to manually set up each phone and ensure it is connected in the right way to the right line; for larger businesses this use of time is not usually something they are able to commit to, causing problems with the flow of their work.
In modern businesses, anything which can save valuable time is worth investing in, so an IP phone with the ability to use auto-provisioning, saving hours and hours of work is a highly attractive prospect to most business owners.
This service provided by your IP phone provider defines plugin and play when you invest in a hosted phone system you can be sure to get a quick, efficient installation with no complicated engineering needed.
Simply plug the phones in and let them do the work connecting the relevant lines to your phone system. Auto-provisioning adds to the attractiveness of hosted phone systems, as businesses can expect downtime to be at an absolute minimum when making the switch.
