Hello--

I've been asked an interesting question, and I'm too ignorant to answer
it authoritatively (yet). Can anyone help me?

Question: If I'm going to implement a somewhat small (10-80) phone
system, and I have a choice of using VOIP phoneset (like SNOM or
Grandstream or Cisco, etc), vs. cheap analog touch-tone phones, exactly
what features will I kiss goodbye if I use the cheap analogs?

In other words, what features will a (more expensive) VOIP phoneset
provide, that the analog won't?



If you need any off-site extensions - I have one in Nova Scotia off our Buffalo server - then VoIP is great, and dramatically cheaper than analog. However, there is nothing stopping you using a mixed environment. Put analog phones where the wiring is easy and VoIP where the wiring is hard and/or there is already suitable ethernet infrastructure.
