IP Telephony and Its Benefits

Posted by samrojseo on August 8th, 2014

VoIP (Voice over Internet Protocol) or IP telephony has emerged as the widespread means of communication. Long gone are the days when it was only available to only a handful of companies but now people are adopting VoIP solutions on a large scale. Within the highly competitive IP telephony market, service providers are slashing their prices while offering a myriad of features to attract customers.

VoIP technology makes use of a pocket-switching protocol to transmit voice signals over broadband lines instead of the conventional circuit-switching network. When it comes to multi-national companies, they prefer the use of VoIP over VPN (Virtual Private Network) to eliminate long distance toll charges for maintaining communication between different sites. As far as Healthcare (telemedicine) and broadcasting enterprises are concerned, the use of VoIP real-time QoS bandwidth provides real time audio and video data transfer.

There are many benefits of an IP Telephony System.  One such benefit is 24/7 access to voice communication.  As a fundamental part of a unified communications system, it allows you to conduct voice calls without being limited by time or location and can be used on a variety of devices such as a laptop or smartphone.  Reduced costs are another huge advantage as calls made through the internet accrue no fees even with international calls.  A VoIP system also is easy to deploy and the call quality has improved by leaps and bounds.

A large number of networking companies claim to be the best provider of IP telephony solutions in the industry but not all of them is not reliable.

Expert professionals will understand your unique business needs and objectives completely, design convenient pre-packaged applications, leverage a high-tuned delivery process and provide comprehensive level of support.
