Yeastar Remote Management
For PBX providers who have an estate of Yeastar S-Series devices to manage, having robust remote tech support capability can bring relief while also improving end-user satisfaction and helping lower costs.
Yeastar Remote Management, designed for S-Series VoIP PBX, can arm you with such power. The exceptional valued-added service, with robust remote device access, real-time PBX monitoring and notification facilities, has helped numerous Yeastar partners realise easy, secure and centralized customer-premises PBX management and control.
Higher Tech Support Efficiency
No customers can wait for engineers to travel to site when an urgent issue comes up, and this is exactly where Yeastar Remote Management helps. With mutual consent from both you and your customer, the robust tool can offer you lightning-fast remote access to the customers Yeastar S-Series PBX whenever necessary. By simply visiting an encrypted link on Web browser, you can directly troubleshoot and do maintenance operations on the Web GUI of the customer S-Series PBX. This means convoluted port forwarding and firewall setups are no longer required also providing greater LAN security.
Besides, as remote PBX access is granted, rather then having your clients explain the problem, your technicians will have a chance to experience issues in action and make the support process more efficient.
“I really love the remote management portal. It was one of the main reasons we decided to go with Yeastar. We do a lot of small systems for franchise companies all over the US, and getting the IT department to open ports on the firewall is a process that can take a day or two. Having remote access as soon as the system is plugged it to the network without having to wait on an IT department is a game changer. “
– Jeffrey Baum, President of BlueStar Telephone Consulting
“YK Communications has been using the remote management utility since it has become available…It has eliminated the requirement that we use a DDNS service and open network ports on the customer’s equipment in order to communicate with the PBX. We find the remote management utility a significant increase in efficiency for our technicians.”
– Bill Rakowitz, General Manager at YK Communication
Secure Remote Access
With security at the forefront of design, Yeastar Remote Management safeguards your remote device access with advanced encryption technology. Unlike the traditional way of remote access that risks exposing customer-premises PBX to potential hacking by opening ports on the firewall, all Yeastar remote server connections are HTTPS secured to minimise the network exposure and best protect the data integrity and confidentiality. Apart from that, Yeastar Remote Management also deploys a role-based access control system to double layer the security and ensure that the access to remote PBX is restricted to authorised engineers only for maintenance operations.
“I do enjoy the management interface…In fact, I think its more secure than opening the firewall exposing the phone system to everyone on the Internet. With the Yeastar Remote Management tool, I don’t have to expose their phone system to potential hacking if all they need is remote management by our technicians.”
– Matt J. Rygelski, Principal Solutions Architect at Phonewire
Best Cost-Effectiveness
With tens, hundreds or even thousands of customer-premises PBX to support, it’s unrealistic to provide all with comprehensive on-site tech services, let alone that traveling require extra time and costs. Remote management might be the most cost-effective way. With Yeastar Remote Management, it is possible for you to bring all your customer-premises PBX under one single management platform. The all-in-one dashboard offers you a real-time overview of all PBX status and allows you to make instant action with alarm notification and easy remote device access.
“The portal is very useful since it allows me to see all my devices that I have deployed at the different site, which makes it easy for me to modify settings or do troubleshooting when necessary without having to physically be on site.”
– Dan Ray, VP of Operations at Accent Imaging
“I like it, it has come in handy several times when customers want changes to their systems. Changes are usually minor so it saves me time and the customers get what they need without the expense of a tech visit”
– Nick Balga at Cougar Telecom

– Benjamin Silver, President of Silver Communications
