Monthly costs can be reduced significantly and they allow calls to be placed from any location with a computer and an Internet connection.The latest phones also offer many sophisticated features at no extra charge, making VoIP even more attractive.
Installing VoIP phone systems couldn’t be easier either. As long as you have spare internet connection and reasonable connection speed you can take advantage of the system. VoIP services can offer real benefits for business owners.
When Tech IP client Alexander Gow decided to open a second branch in Lytham, they wanted the new office to operate as a seamless extension of the head office in Blackburn. VoIP business telephone systems enabled them to centralise the reception service and allowed them to operate under a single phone system irrespective of the location of staff. In addition the new VoIP phones ensured they maintained a high level of customer service, and significantly reduced the cost of setting up the new office.
Key Benefits of VoIP Phone Systems for Businesses
Low Cost Service & Calls – The primary advantage of VoIP is the low cost monthly fee. Many VoIP providers allow free computer-to-computer calls, while computer-to-traditional phone calls are usually cheaper too.
Wide Choice of Business Features – VoIP/Internet phones are affordably priced and many have a wide choice of useful features including call forwarding, call waiting, voicemail and caller ID. They can also offer three-way or multiple connections and will allow you to send data such as pictures and documents while you are talking. Many phones also come with audio enhancements and external speakers making the sound quality better than a traditional telephone service – although it can be affected by a slow internet connection speed. Avaya IP Office 500 Business Telephone Systems offer a great all-round phone and are highly recommended by clients.
Portable Service – When you sign up with a VoIP service provider your Internet phone is given a unique number. You can retain this ‘phone number’ if you need to relocate your office. Simply plug the phone into the new broadband connection and then make and receive calls just as before.
Choice of STD Code – VoIP phone systems also give you the flexibility to choose which STD dialling code you wish to have. For example a business based in Preston can choose to have a London number.
