For Wilson Sporting Goods Co., choosing 3CX was a no brainer as it proved to be the most efficient in system deployment, support costs, as well as software and hardware infrastructure requirements.

Following the installation of 3CX Phone System by 3CX Partner CrossRealms, the staff at Wilson Sporting Goods Co. noticed immediate competitive benefits in the form of an open platform and licensing model, which enabled the company to choose the VoIP gateways and IP phones of its preference. This flexibility allowed Wilson Sporting Goods to adopt its preferred gateway solution, as well as ration out its 350 IP phones; 80 percent are offered by Cisco 7940, and 20 percent by Yealink.

Additionally, the organization uses five PRI and ISDN lines. In this respect, 3CX Phone System provided the business with the interoperability it desired after previously experiencing the restrictions imposed by a closed, proprietary phone system.

The American sports equipment manufacturer is also reaping benefits such as monetary relief and increased flexibility since adopting 3CX Phone System. In fact, the organization stated that the cost savings from 3CX Phone System were huge compared to its former system, which was a top priority on the company’s new phone system checklist.

The organization was also pleasantly surprised to see a short learning curve for adapting the 3CX solution—a great bonus that helped minimize productivity lulls often associated with phone system reconfiguration. All in all the phone system, touted for its simple installation and overall ease-of-use, proved its stellar reviews to be true once implemented at the manufacturer’s Chicago headquarters.
