Most small companies are forced to cobble together their telephone system with a combination of different handsets, multiple lines and answering machines. As a result they end up with and expensive call charges.
Not just voice, but video too: VoIP is the next Internet revolution.
Internet based phone systems are undoubtedly the way to go. It won’t be long before all business phone systems are like this because of the cost savings and integration with your computer systems. Here are some of the main savings that you might expect to make:
Reduced line rental charges: Internet connectivity requires only a single line, rather than one line per concurrent call.
Lower call costs: The internet reduces long distance call charges dramatically. Call charges are reduced as calls are carried as far as possible on the internet braking out only for the last leg of the call.
Eliminates inter-office call charges: Each office or mobile worker can be connected through a broadband connection instead of a dedicated line or the normal telephone network.
More flexible and extensible than traditional systems: Allows any employee with a suitable broadband connection to connect to the company telephone network and have full system features available.
