| Why use VOIP? |
| There are two major reasons to use VOIP |
Lower Cost
Increased functionality |
| Lower Cost |
| In general phone service via VOIP costs less than equivalent service from traditional sources. This is largely a function of traditional phone services either being monopolies or government entities. There are also some cost savings due to using a single network to carry voice and data. |
| The transfer of voice packets over internet protocol makes communication cost cheaper and now more and more corporate start relying on this not only for cost cutting but also as part of technology up gradation. |
| Increased Functionality |
| VOIP makes easy some things that are difficult to impossible with traditional phone networks. Incoming phone calls are automatically routed to your VOIP phone where ever you plug it into the network. Take your VOIP phone with you on a trip, and anywhere you connect it to the Internet, you can receive your incoming calls. Call center agents using VOIP phones can easily work from anywhere with a good Internet connection. |
