VoIP — which stands for voice over Internet protocol and often pronounced “voyp” — is the technology that will improve the way we communicate. VoIP is basically a telephone connection over the Internet. The data is sent digitally, using the Internet Protocol (IP) instead of analog telephone lines. This allows people to talk to one another long-distance and around the world without having to pay long distance or international phone charges.

How does using VoIP benefits my Business?

We know how using VoIP can turn a standard Internet connection into a way to place free phone calls but how does using VoIP be beneficial to your business?

• Saving money – The cost of using a VoIP telephone is much cheaper than using a conventional phone. In the case of business expenses, you want to minimize what you spend to maximize what you earn — but not at the expense of quality and performance. The great thing about VoIP services is that you get the best of both worlds.
• Portability – Using a high-speed internet access, you can login into your VoIP telephone, and you will get a dial tone. Regardless of where you are, if you have Internet access, there should not be any problems in terms of costs and connections.
• Flexibility – Mobile and Desktop VoIP Apps are available that can turn just about any device into a call-making machine. This flexibility can be extremely handy in various business environments, where quick communication is essential.
• Multi-Functional – Aside from making phone calls, you can also conduct videoconferencing calling through your VoIP phone. This allows you to stay in touch with your co-workers and clients to discuss important deals, affairs, meetings, files, documents, agendas, no matter where you are. Even while you are abroad attending to meetings, you still have the capacity to attend other important meetings in the home office without having to worry about being physically present.

The rise of VoIP services means that businesses can grow, scale and relocate, whilst still achieving agility and flexibility. It is no longer practical for small businesses to rely on a mobile-only business, or indeed tie themselves down to a landline. Furthermore, with it being many years since the first mobile call, it is definitely the time for small businesses to look for a far more flexible and affordable approach.
