OK so VOIP communications have been gaining ground over conventional telecoms - here are some of the reasons why:

1. Low Cost Landline Calls - VOIP call carriers offer low call rates or free national calls.

2. Cheap Mobile Rates - offered on short commitment - even lower using GSM gateways.

3. Cheap International Calls - most providers offer very low or inclusive international calls.

4. Reduced Line Rentals - many VOIP call carriers offer unlimited outbound trunks which could cut your line rental fees.

5. Free Calls to Home Workers & Branch Offices - assuming of course you have switched these users to VOIP.

6. Much Longer Call Recording - record more calls over longer periods.

7. Keep Geographic Number - by switching to voip your landline number can move with you.

8. Automatic Divert on any failure - your calls will automatically redirect should your PBX or lines fail

9. Shorter Contracts - most VOIP suppliers have short contracts.

10. More Control - apply your own call diverts and modify your phone system remotely

Businesses using VOIP should not see any difference in call quality if the setup is good - see voip call quality for more info. The path to success may not always be smooth as telephone service providers may create number porting delays & quality of internet connections will vary with location. The experience or inexperience of your installer will play a big part in the success or failure of your migration - get references!.
