There used to be a company called TalkSwitch that did all of this and did it affordably, but then they sold out to Fortivoice/Fortinet and their products basically don't exist anymore, which leaves the SMB market in a bit of a bind. Sometimes you can find their stuff secondhand if you're willing to go that route, but at this point I bet those handsets and boxes are taking their last breaths.
About a year ago we took a chance on an X16 system for a small but busy dental office, hoping we wouldn't have to come up with a whole other solution a couple of weeks later. To our surprise it was easy to set up and has been working really well in that environment.
It has almost all the features you're looking for, with the possible exception of ring groups. I'd have to check with one of my guys and see if Xblue supports ring groups or not.
The one issue we ran into is that the system doesn't like having digits dialed too rapidly. You'll almost never actually encounter this, but there was one office person on site that, anytime there was a repeated digit in a phone number, like "4003", would double-tap the repeated digit. We set up a logging device between the Xblue system and their lines to the mpoe (Comcast in this case), and near as we could tell Xblue was doing everything right but the mpoe side hated it. We initially contacted Xblue support on this and found them to be friendly and wanting to help, but it wasn't something they had encountered before.
I've had to deal with Avaya in the past and I hate them with a fiery passion. Support was nonexistent unless you purchased the system from an approved vendor along with a support contract, and their entire setup was designed to be difficult and spiteful.
My business uses this system. It's fairly quick and simple to setup, and as of yet (2 years of use) hasn't failed me. It can be setup to ring all phones or just 1 when calls come in.
