Case Study: Yeastar Boosts Productivity for One Latin American Embassy in Moscow

An organization that provides multifarious services to a large number of people daily and values information security inevitably needs a cost-effective telephony system that could handle a large volume of call traffics, both internal and external, while ensuring the stability and security of calls. Yeastar S-Series VoIP PBX, designed to deliver both call productivity and affordability, exactly fits the needs. By installing the Yeastar S300 IP PBX, one Latin American embassy is able to elevate its productivity with streamlined in-office communications, and citizens, or anyone who phone the embassy, also benefits from securer phone calls and better calling experience.

Besides, the old telephony system was unable to keep up with the increasing call demand and the spiraling communication cost failed to fit the shrinking budget.

• Need to categorize incoming calls in terms of service type to reduce internal communication cost and make faster response to public demand
• Need to ensure stability to avoid the communication interrupt and to secure voice communication and system running.

• Need to integrate the new telephony system with the existing IP networks and PSTN lines.
