How VoIP Benefits Your Business
What is VoIP?
The technical answer is that VoIP stands for “voice over internet protocol,” which is a protocol that allows you to make voice calls over the internet instead of a landline.
In plain English, VoIP (Voice over IP) runs your phone system over the cloud. Which is safe to do with a trusted VoIP provider. This allows you to get rid of your controller rack and your traditional phone bill while maintaining and even gaining voice call functionality.
But wait, there’s more.
Your business is already using internet to operate.
With VoIP and a VoIP enabled phone, first and foremost, you’ll be spending less money than if you were paying for internet and a landline separately. As a VIP customer, we can provide both of these services and the necessary equipment, conveniently bundled and tailored to what your business actually needs. We’ve been able to save our customers up to 35% on their internet and phone bills. Not to mention, you get stellar customer service from our local offices anytime you need assistance.
Secondly, if you can’t get to the office because of bad weather, you need to move to a different desk, or there’s a power outage, you can physically take your phone somewhere with power and internet to make and receive calls as normal. There are also apps and forwarding options so you can receive and make calls to and from your business number on your cell phone, computer, or tablet as you work from home.
Third, Voice Over IP can be far more reliable than using a landline—provided you have the appropriate bandwidth. Landlines require a lot more maintenance and their own separate structure, whereas VOIP uses infrastructure that’s already in place for your internet. There are no limitations or special circumstances of who you can call or what type of phone or service they have to have. And because it’s utilizing the internet, most long-distance calls won’t cost you extra.
