When companies look to evaluate their budgets' needs or make decisions to cut costs, expensive and wasteful phone bills may be a good place to start. By investing in a VoIP (Voice over Internet Protocol) system, needing a large phone contract can be a thing of the past.
One advantage of the service can be free long distance calling, according to The Digest. Most business VoIP systems offer unlimited calling all over the nation, because as VoIP calls are made over the Internet instead of analog telephone wires, their costs can be reduced. That means expensive long-distance, interstate and even international fees can be a thing of the past. Most providers' basic plans will provide unlimited calling within the United States and Canada, and premium plans can go intercontinental for little or no extra money.
VoIP providers can also provide mobile apps easily downloaded onto employees' smartphones, laptops, tablets or other devices that can connect to the Internet, no matter where employees may be. This can cut down sharply on telephone and cellular expenses, removing a need for pricey monthly plans, and when employees work from home or areas with wireless internet, business call costs can drop drastically. Increased mobility will also make employees more efficient, especially saving for employees who frequently travel.
Easier to manage
Having a VoIP system is easier than ever today, as new advances in cloud technology can keep systems largely free of any expensive or complicated reworking of offices, according to Arizona's KTAR.com. Now, it's possible for a VoIP system to be controlled completely over the Internet using wireless technology, allowing for an easier-than-ever transition to the service on top of cost savings.
Adding office extensions to a VoIP plan can be very inexpensive as well, as rates can run as low as $20 per month for unlimited plans, complete with calls across North America. For companies who don't want to pay for unlimited services, they can receive lower rates.
The flexibility of VoIP is also a plus for companies looking to coordinate multiple locations, as inter-office communication can be done for free using the service. Why should a company have to pay to communicate with itself?
