PBX Phone SystemsPBX phone systems are telephone systems created specifically for businesses. The acronym "PBX" stands for private branch exchange. PBX phone systems are created to form a private network of users to share selected external telephone lines. PBX phone systems are ideal for medium and large sized companies since it is more cost efficient to share a few external lines than to allow every user their own external lines. Plus, within a PBX phone system it is easier to reach someone because it is only a three or four digit extension. An additional feature of the PBX phone systems is voicemail. Voicemail with forwarding, reminders, and screen displays are popular preferences within PBX phone systems. In addition, the ability to screen calls is important in PBX phone systems. PBX phone systems also have the capabilities to answer the phone with auto-generated messages, greeting clients and giving them menu options or even a live call transfer.
