VoIP Explained: How To Use It Successfully in Your Office

Companies looking to streamline their telecommunications and reduce their costs often turn to Voice over Internet Protocol, often referred to by its acronym VoIP. This gives companies an unmissable opportunity to streamline their communications and integrate them into one network. Not only does this centralise data, but it also increases productivity, flexibility and functionality. It\’s of no surprise then that many companies are using VoIP to replace their now-outdated forms of business telecommunications.

Unlike traditional telephone systems, VoIP allows users to transmit voice over a data network using a personal computer. With VoIp businesses can bypass traditional hardware and send information digitally through IP addresses, using an intranet or broadband connection. As VoIP allows access to the public network, businesses can still make calls to landlines.

With VoIP, your office is anywhere you want it to be. Users can be at their desks wherever they go, which is especially important to mobile workforces, or even employees who need off-site facilities. Through the technology, users can not only communicate verbally, but access voicemail and e-mail, as well as office data – all through the device of their choice.
