Review of the Alcatel-Lucent Omni PCX for small business

Alcatel-Lucent is one of the world’s leading telecommunications brands and supplies quality phone systems for successful businesses the world over. The Alcatel-Lucent Omni PCX is the larger version of the Alcatel Omni PCX Compact, being technically identical except for the fact it is expandable to 200 users. Like the PCX Compact, it has features to spare whilst being affordable enough to meet the budget of any small business owner.

The Good

Whereas other phone system brands charge you $500 for essential features such as voicemail and day & night greetings, they come as standard on the Alcatel-Lucent Omni PCX. With these no-cost extras, your business will immediately start sounding larger and more professional to callers, giving you an edge over your competition.

The handsets are the main point of contact staff will have with the phone system, so you’ll be glad to hear these models have several positives. If speed dial is a key feature for your staff the Alcatel leads the field, thanks to a full QWERTY keyboard on specific handsets that allows for fast, intuitive entering of names. Design priority has been given to the handset’s in-built screens, offering far more flexibility and functionality than traditional hard-button phones.

As mentioned, the Alcatel Omni PCX can accommodate up to 200 users on either PSTN or ISDN 2 phone lines (including Onramp 10 and multiline). The phone system is also compatible with digital, analogue, IP, DECT and even cordless phones, letting you create a handset mix that fits your budget and requirements.

The VoIP functionality is also excellent on the Omni PCX, giving you access to a wealth of options such as the ability to connect remote workers, link multiple locations, link to Microsoft Outlook and much more.

The Not So Good

Some customers do admit to being somewhat overwhelmed by the Alcatel’s cutting edge handsets, so make sure you ask us for a demo of them if you are interested. If you want to go with a more traditional handset design, we recommend opting for a system like the LG Ericsson 24IPE or the Avaya IP 500.

If you intend to take advantage of SIP trunking, be aware: although this system can handle it, Alcatel does not support the feature in Australia.

The Verdict

The Alcatel Omni PCX is a proven, feature rich performer from a world-leading brand and is therefore an excellent choice for small businesses.

However, the Alcatel’s handset design has put some of our customers offside and for this reason we recommend also take a look at the Avaya IP 500 Office. The Avaya gives you the same feature set, better handsets and a better brand – and thanks to the current exchange rates, it’s available at an all-time low price.

Hold Functionality

The most commonly used button on your new handset will be the ‘hold’ button – and with good reason. It’s essential for smooth, professional handling of calls. Rather than (ineffectively) cupping a hand over the mouthpiece, users can place callers on hold at the touch of a button, giving your staff time to resolve call enquiries quickly and proficiently.

Conference Calls

With business being conducted both nationally and globally nowadays, getting people to meet in person isn’t always possible. The Alcatel Omni PCX, however, lets you conference call seamlessly with whoever you need to, getting a real time conversation going with up to 64 internal and external phone parties. Simply place your caller on hold, select a new line and join the calls by pressing the conference button. It’s as simply as that!
