Together with its Channel Partners, Toshiba is committed to supporting business transition into the IP world.

More and more employees are taking care of business and extending corporate or sales capability from home offices, start-up locations, branch offices—even on-site at customer locales.

Growth & Migration
When migrating to larger systems in the future, you'll enjoy an exceptional return on your investment by being able to reuse key components, such as telephones and trunk and station interfaces. This is the case for existing customers when migrating from older and smaller Strata systems to current Strata CIX systems. It is also the case for future customers when migrating from smaller Strata CIX systems to larger ones. It's part of Toshiba's "No customer gets left behind" migration strategy, where you can switch to IP telephony now or in the future, while protecting your investment.
