It’s true that Voice over Internet Protocol (VoIP) is probably going to be cheaper than using an enterprise phone system through your regional phone company. While cost reduction is a good reason to choose a service, VoIP does much more than just reduce communication costs. Implementing a VoIP platform also presents a lot of solid options that can help your business be more efficient and productive.
VoIP Allows You to Do More
While at its core, a VoIP system is a telephone system, it allows for many more options. Since it uses an organization’s available bandwidth rather than a dedicated RJ-11 connection, there are more dynamic options available. It may raise the cost of the solution a bit, but VoIP can come with instant messaging, conferencing and call archival built in.
VoIP is More Secure
VoIP is far more secure to use than the traditional landline because it is easier to secure a digital connection than it is to secure an analog one. The use of encryption protects all information transmitted through the system.
VoIP is More Portable
This is a big benefit. VoIP solutions can be linked to mobile applications. This means that any smartphone can become a work phone and can be linked to the same number as the user’s business phone. This allows people to get calls on their phone without having to give over their personal number. This is either done through forwarding or by installing a simple app on the phone.
VoIP Offers Automated Client Interaction
A VoIP system can be configured to support an entire business. There are integrated automated menus that can offer a lot of value by directing calls to voicemails, alternative members of your team and allowing employees to avoid distractions and not neglecting their incoming calls. Call forwarding, parking and many more options can be tied to a VoIP account for additional costs.
