Definity Systems: Facts Behind the Myths
Definity Systems cannot support the network needs of businesses.
This is blatantly wrong: Avaya Phone Systems designed Definity Systems
specifically to meet the needs of businesses of all sizes. Smaller business will
benefit from the Definity Server CSI, capable of supporting between 50 and 250
users on the network.
For mid- sized and large business, there is the Definity Server SI, which can
accommodate up to 500 users on the network.
Once you buy Definity Systems, you’re stuck with it; Definity Systems are not
able to grow with the company. You have to buy a whole new network in order to
upgrade.
This myth is misplaced. Perhaps you’re thinking of other companies, but all of
Avaya’s products are scalable solutions; Avaya works with you to create a system
that meets the needs of your company.
Avaya knows that companies change and grow; that’s why Definity Systems can be
upgraded without having to purchase a whole new system.
Definity Systems are a waste of money.
Definity is a smart financial move for two reasons: Avaya firmly believes in the
idea of investment protection, allowing you to embrace new technology while
keeping many of your existing components.
And, in the long run, installing a Definity Systems can actually save you
money through Communication Manager, a powerful telephony software that helps
increase productivity and profits.
Before Definity Systems are fully functional, you have buy a whole host of
additional components and products, things I don’t need nor want.
Nope. Definity Systems, like all of Avaya Phone Systems products, is designed
to be an all- in- one solution. In other words, Definity Systems includes everything
to help improve productivity and efficiency, without requiring you to buy additional
components.
Additionally, Definity Systems are built along a modular design; as you
upgrade, and as your business grows and changes, you only need to buy the
components you need.
Definity Systems lacks the powerful features I need.
Not true at all: Definity Systems is powered by Avaya’s powerful, industry
leading Communications Manager, giving you world- class telephony capabilities.
Communications Manager includes over 700 advanced features that can improve the
efficiency of your business.
Definity Systems also includes value- added applications like voice
messaging, networking abilities, and call center.
Definity Systems only supports IP networks.
Very false. Definity Systems works with traditional and IP networks, as well as
converged networks. Definity Systems supports business with a single location, and
business with multiple locations.
