Business had always been dependent on communications, the lifeblood that governs the interaction between sellers and customers, without which, there is no business. With the growing technology, there is now today what is termed as VoIP providers.
The computers, digitization and the Internet had all helped spawn VoIP, the new form of telecommunications based on all three that had leaped over the established telephone system. This has not yet fully taken over the system though. The digital age had been with us, and the phone systems had adapted rather well by going digital as well. The system, though, is still along the line of POTS (plain old telephone system), but is modern and technologically competent. VoIP VoIP (voice over internet protocol), the new system is way different from those offered by traditional phone providers. The IP phone (the other name of VoIP phone) depends on Internet technology. In simple terms (minus some details), the voice calls are digitized, sent and received by parties concerned through the Internet connection. In VoIP, callers can use landlines, mobile phones or a computer to begin and conduct a phone conversation, much like what we all are used to. The VoIP providers are mostly the same providers (big phone companies) servicing the older cabled system. Advantages Companies using VoIP phones usually held on to their old subscriptions to the traditional cabled phones because VoIP phone services (at an earlier time) were still missing some important services that are needed. However, the biggest advantage the new system is lowered costs. The high cost of communications through the older phone system had always been the bane of many, from businessmen to plain home users, usually on long distance calls. Comparison In terms of overall systems quality, the comparison is different from one provider to the next. This is because some systems are yet to be tweaked accordingly. The VoIP experience, however, is definitely much better with faster and more reliable Internet connection. Voice quality and the signal had been better these last years in the old traditional phone systems all over the world. This is because both systems are into digital technology and signals (voice, music, graphics, video, etc.) have been improved regarding brilliance and clarity. Being digital also eliminates errors of the other system. One recent development is that the VoIP technology had been weaned from its dependence on computer use. Computers can now be off but you can continue using your VoIP phones, provided your connection is still working. More advantages Aside from having its services much cheaper, some of the services, a few have been free. Also, the traditional voice services of VoIP used in business operations are quite as good as the traditional POTS (plain old telephone system). Moreover, they have the potential of being able to harness the power of cloud computing as is happening in many online businesses these days. With the unified communications system, costs can plunge further. There are as yet fewer VoIP providers Victoria serving the big business areas in many parts of the world. However, that number will soon be replaced.
