Key benefits of VoIP (Voice over Internet Protocol) phone systems for international businesses and c

By: Tpad Business

The benefits of VoIP (Voice over Internet Protocol) phone systems are numerous.
First and foremost, it presents the future of telecommunications. With companies tightening their belts while looking to upgrade their infrastructure at the same time, VoIP represents an essential investment.
VoIP is cheaper for both offices and home consumers, primarily because it forgoes expensive line rental costs. Instead, all voice calls are sent over an existing broadband connection, greatly reducing costs before even a word is said. Typically, a phone bill is slashed by 60%.
The process of sending calls across the internet is akin to sending emails instead of letters. Reaching international destinations from anywhere with an internet connection is much cheaper than with cumbersome phone lines which often require physical maintenance and installation. This usually equates to local call rates, regardless of where you're calling to/from.
In addition, calls between VoIP networks tend to be free or extremely low cost. This is perfect for families or business associates who are spread out across the globe but remain in regular contact.
The difference in audio quality on a strong broadband connection is unnoticeable to that of a regular phone unit.
VoIP also presents new, feature rich technology as well as adapters (ATAs) which convert old phones into VoIP-ready devices. Powerful office phones and IP-PBX (Internet phone private branch exchanges - aka VoIP phone systems) often come loaded with extras such as:
? Auto-Attendant (IVR)
? Voicemail-to-your-Email
? Music-on-Hold
? Advanced Call Forwarding
? Support for all future VoIP Devices
? (IP/ATA/PC Phone/ WiFi Mobiles)
? Branch Office Support
? Report Exporting (.csv / .pdf)
? Custom Caller IDs
? IVR Authentication
? Upload Voice Prompts
? Agent Call Recording
? Extension Grouping
? On-the-Fly Recording
? Web Access to Recordings
? Call Back
? DND (Do NOT Disturb)
? Blacklist
? Speed dial functions
? Web-based Control Panel
? Follow Me
? Routing by DIDs
? Ring-All (Blast Group)
? Agents on Mobile Phones
? Agents Shared across Sites
? Print Extensions
? Powerful Reporting
It isn't only hardware which benefits from this calling revolution - software softphones are freely downloaded, essentially turning your computer/laptop into a phone unit capable of synchronising your current email capabilities alongside numerous other features, which can updated automatically and hassle-free.
VoIP is also extremely flexible, with the ability to grow as your needs do. New phones can be added at the touch of a button without the need for calling out onsite technical support at great expense. It means that you can buy a phone system that suits your needs perfectly right now but is also completely scalable to your development over the next decade. Numerous phone lines can be sent through a single broadband connection via SIP trunking as and when you need them.
On the whole, VoIP is cheaper, easier to maintain and update. Also if you move office or house, VoIP is truly mobile and can go wherever you're going, without any need for a forklift upgrade.
