VoIP technology has transformed traditional telephone services, superseding TDM and ISDN systems with cheaper, more advanced solutions. As with most business decisions, the choice of which telecoms service to use is often determined by cost. However, the added flexibility and advanced features of VoIP have resulted in its global domination.
Voice over Internet Protocol (VoIP) is the technological method of making phone calls over the internet or an internal network. Also known as an internet telephone, the use of this method of communication has become mainstream with many businesses choosing to cancel the land lines offered by traditional phone companies in favour of it. Businesses that choose VoIP technology reap many benefits, with the most prevalent being cost.
Cost Containment
One of the biggest components of call charges is a company calling its own mobiles. With Cerberus VoIP, calls to UK landlines and UK mobiles are free, instantly reducing a significant proportion of most company phone bills. Calls to remote workers are also included, keeping you and your teams in touch.
Flexibility
Fortunately, the old constraints of location and equipment have become a thing of the past. VoIP seamlessly removes the geographical attachment of a number to a physical location, meaning you can get creative with your numbers, even including overseas numbers for customers to call. Remote workers are now contactable on their direct dial-in via either a soft client installed on a laptop or on a smart phone.
Superior Technology
Advanced technology results in a host of essential business features; such as conference calling, video conferencing, instant messaging and presence. Since VoIP utilises the internet to make and receive calls, it is possible for a business to integrate the system with other software resulting in an enhanced experience for both employees and customers.
