Bridgewater industries AgileIP serves
Wooden-boat builders
The yard's greeting sends owners asking about a restoration to the shipwright's office with one key and suppliers delivering timber and fittings to the stores with another.
Inns and bed and breakfasts
The front desk and the kitchen phone ring in the same group, and a booking call is answered even while breakfast is being served.
Christmas tree farms
Caller ID shows the farm office that last year's wholesale buyer is calling, so the price for a trailer load is ready before anyone says hello.
Antique dealers
The counter hands a collector asking about a sea chest to the dealer who bought it at the estate sale.
Clothing boutiques
In the days before the Boxing Week sale, callers asking about sizes and hours are kept in a call queue and reach the clerks in order.
Bakeries
The counter puts a caller on hold to look for the last rye loaf on the rack, and comes back with a yes or a no.
Straight out of setup, what outfits the business phone system Bridgewater boatbuilders commission from AgileIP?
A hosted PBX that AgileIP owns, operates, and manages end to end, so there is no phone system hardware to buy or look after at the office. Every line carries the auto attendant, call queues, ring groups, voicemail-to-email, call transfer, and call forwarding, and arrives configured, with installation, a practical orientation for staff, and responsive ongoing support. The AgileIP softphone, call recording, and queue callback are available as add-ons.
Could a shop in Lunenburg and a studio in Mahone Bay share a Bridgewater account?
Both can, and so can offices in Chester, New Germany, LaHave, and Blockhouse. Each location keeps the number printed on its sign, and a call from one to another is an extension call. A Halifax office fits on the same account as well.
Which local area codes can a business keep or add?
A 902 number a business already uses comes across when it is ported and stays the number customers know. Because established 902 numbers rarely free up, new numbers on the account usually come on 782, routed to a branch, a team, or a new employee’s desk. Toll-free numbers covering Canada and the United States are available as an add-on.
Can a new Bridgewater business start with brand-new numbers instead of porting?
Yes. A business with no number to bring gets new local numbers issued on its account, so nothing waits on another carrier, and the phones arrive configured with those numbers in place.
What happens to the old phone system in a Lunenburg office’s back room?
Once the numbers have moved and the new phones are live, the on-site PBX has nothing left to do and can be unplugged and taken out. Desk phones that AgileIP supports can be set up on the new system; any others are replaced.
How does porting an existing number to AgileIP work?
AgileIP manages the transfer with the losing carrier and handles each step of the request. The number keeps working the whole time. The carrier stage usually runs 5 to 10 business days, and the line activates within 48 hours of the carrier’s approval.
