1. It Costs Less (Often a Lot Less)
One of the biggest reasons companies switch to VoIP is to reduce costs. Trandional phone systems charge you for lines, long distance calls, hardware maintenance - you name it. With VoIP services, you don't need any of that, which often custs your monthly phone bill by 30 to 60 percent.
2. You Can Work from Anywhere
Using VoIP voice services means your work phone number isn't tied to your desk phone. If you're working from home, on the road, or across the country, you can still answer calls and have the same service like you're at the office. All you need to do is download your VoIP provider's softphone app onto your computer or mobile device.
3. It Grows with Your Business
Adding a new employee used to mean calling the phone company, installing a new line, and maye even buying new hardware. With VoIP phone systems, adding someone is as easy as setting up a new user online. It takes minutes, not days.
4. It's More Than Just a Phone
VoIP phone systems often include a lot of extra tools at no extra cost.
