The popularity of Meridian Norstar phone systems in
the small to medium sized installations continue to grow at
an unprecedented rate.
It offers flexibility, expandability, ISDN capability and
a digitally integrated call processing system. Best of all,
it's one of the most cost effective phone systems the market
has to offer.
It does have one major drawback: its integrated call processing
system has a very limited feature pack and its ability to
expand and accommodate growth of number of users, minutes
of storage and flexible call routing is very restrictive.
If you want to offer a really powerful combination, bundle
the Norstar with VoiceGate's digitally integrated call processing
solution: it costs less and does more.
VoiceGate's proven LITE and VIP4000 call processing systems
combined with Norstar's strengths and price point makes this
combination a sure winner.
