FAQs

Why should my customers choose VoIP over traditional telephone services?

There are many reasons why customers choose to implement VoIP. VoIP provides a comprehensive call management service which is scalable as your customers’ communication needs increase or decrease. VoIP also provides many useful features which are easily managed via online portals, such as auto attendants, call queues/hunt groups. The capital outlay is often dramatically less for VoIP than for traditional telephone systems and users also benefit from savings on call costs. What’s more, ISDN is being withdrawn in 2025, making this a great time to educate your customers on these benefits.
