PhoneFusion offers businesses a cost-effective alternative to a high-priced receptionist with a key feature of its PhoneFusion One solution -- the Virtual Receptionist. The Virtual Receptionist is a virtual PBX system that can answer calls and play a recorded message with different options to help respond to callers' varying needs, just like a regular office PBX system. For example, callers will dial a company's number and hear "Thank you for calling ABC Company. Dial 1 for sales, 2 for support or 0 for the operator." Unlike a standard PBX system, there is no hardware or software to purchase and maintain, so costs start low and stay low.
