Taking Care of Business with VoIP Solutions
Voice over Internet Protocol, or VoIP, has been a subject of boiling issues for the past years. Many businessmen from large corporations have turned to VoIP and have made savings of at least 50 percent with their telephone bills.
VoIP has grown in demand because it can assist users with their tasks. This is one thing which may not be available from traditional networks. Some of such tasks include the following:
- In UK, the US, and other member countries of organizations like VoIP User, phone numbers are available for free use.
- Incoming calls can be controlled to be automatically forwarded to a VoIP phone, wherever you may be connected to the network. So, a traveling businessman can still receive incoming calls by just connecting to the internet with the use of a VoIP phone.
- With the use of VoIP phones, call center agents can do their work from any location with a stable and fast internet connection.
- Various VoIP packages offer free features such as Caller ID, Call Forwarding, 3-way Calling, and Automatic Redial.
VoIP solutions entail VoIP problems. For the past years, the problems that have stirred up on the use of VoIP focused on the voice signal quality. If IP packets are delayed or lost at any point in the VoIP network, users will experience a brief drop-out of voice transfer. This case is obvious where there are long interworking and distances between endpoints and in congested networks. But this has changed. Many companies have sought for VoIP solutions for a clearer signal that has even surpassed that of the present analog landline service.
Another VoIP drawback is that sending faxes is difficult because of networking restraints and software limitations. However, a VoIP solution is in progress to outline an IP-based alternative for Fax-over-IP delivery. This is called T.38 protocol. A substitute solution to fix this drawback is by treating the faxing method as a message switching mechanism that does not require real time data broadcast. Examples are sending fax as a remote printout or as an email attachment. The incoming fax data can be completely buffered by the end system before being displayed or printed.
However, there are three main issues that concern VoIP solutions before VoIP can dominate the world. These are mobile VoIP phone service, power outages, and Emergency 911 services.
The first VoIP solution that needs to be directed is a way to substitute voip phone service to cellular phone service. Presently, wireless VoIP, or wVoIP, is reliant on the reach and location of Wi-Fi hotspots. Unfortunately, Wi-Fi hotspots have lower reach compared to the present microwave systems of cell phones and may not be practical on a larger range.
A VoIP solution for the problem of replacing a cell phone service can possibly be an advanced cellular-VoIP service. Presently, there a few manufacturers that can produce dual-purpose phones. Such cell phones work as standard cell phones; but when the user is within a hotspot, the cell phone can get connected with VoIP. This type of solution will help the users save money, particularly when they are in hotels, airports, cafés, and other hotspot areas.
Another drawback of VoIP is the irregularity of the Emergency 911 service. Not all current service providers of VoIP provide full Emergency 911 service. But, this has changed as the Federal Communications Commission, or FCC, has taken an action on this dilemma. It has directed all the phone service companies to provide the standard 911 service, even if the customers have not specifically requested to avail the service.
Another VoIP dilemma that has to be prevailed over with VoIP solutions is the power outage concerns. During a power outage, the local phones are still operational. But VoIP requires high-speed internet connection. Without power, the internet access is lost, and so with the VoIP connection. The use of cell phones is the current alternative workaround during residential power outage. Many VoIP companies and providers have started to install power backups in the VoIP hardware sets to attend to this issue.
But these VoIP shortcomings would not stop the VoIP technology in its widespread deployment. VoIP solutions are coming. Don't get left behind! Do you have VoIP already?

by kristen kiya
But before going any further into the details it is really important to know what actually this VoIP technology is? In the century world witnessed revolutionary changes in the information technology sector. Due to this revolution people saw the emergence of many ground breaking methods of communication. These channels were powerful enough to change the entire face of communication process in this world. One of these methods was VoIP. It is the acronym for Voice over Internet Protocol. This revolutionary method of communicating was totally dependent on the Internet. It was a channel which allowed the user to call overseas at astonishingly cheap rate but despite that its popularity failed to take off. Even today very few people are aware of the fact that a technology of this type even exists. However as the level of awareness is increasing so is the popularity of this technology and now more and more people are adopting these VoIP solutions to help them in every possible way.

Availing this VoIP service has many advantages. First, call rates are very cheap and also very affordable. Second, quality of service is quite good then the normal basic telephone or the mobile phone. Third, user is not restricted to any particular region. It is because since this service is directly dependent on Internet hence wherever Internet will be available this service will work. Fourth, the user requires the VoIP device to take the advantage of this service.
This method is especially very popular among the big corporate houses that employ these business VoIP solutions to monitor the performance of the offices located in various parts of the world. This way they also manage the distant branches.
But there are few points that a person should bear in mind before going for availing this service. First, a good personal computer is a must to take the full advantage of these VoIP solutions, even if the user has a laptop it will serve the purpose. Second, a high speed broadband connection is required since this service is directly dependent on the Internet's connectivity speed. Third, despite of the fact that this service is very economical and cheap, it is the duty of the user to keep him aware of the changing call rates and tariff plans.
At the end it VoIP solutions provided by the VoIP service is very beneficial and at the same time is user-oriented.

VoIP Solutions: The New Age Telephony
VoIP Solutions: The New Age Telephony
by Kristen Kiya
Voice over Internet Protocol(VoIP) is a more common term of 'phone over the Internet'. If you have a reasonable quality Internet connection then you can get phone services delivered to your Internet connection. Before reaching the destination, the technology converts voice into regular telephonic signal. By using this service, you can directly make calls from your computer with the help of a special VoIP phone or a traditional phone connected to a special adapter. This function can either be included into the phone itself or in a separated box like a Analog Terminal Adapter(ATA).
Some people use VoIP solutions along with their traditional phone service, though VoIP solution providers usually offer lower rates than the traditional companies. Sometimes VoIP phone calls (even international) can be absolutely FREE. Several service providers are present who provide these type of “free†facilities. Examples are: 'Free World Dial up' and 'Skype'. The service providers sometime permit to select an area code different from the area. On the other side, some VoIP providers do charge for a long distance call for outside calling area, just like the traditional wireless telephone service. And some VoIP solution providers permit you to call anywhere at a flat rate for a fixed number for a minute.
The VoIP-to-VoIP phone calls are sometimes free while VoIP calls connecting to Public Switching Telephone Network (VoIP-to-PSTN) may have an attached cost that is charged by the VoIP service provider.
There are three categories of VoIP service provider. These are, Single line resident/business plans service provider, B2B service provider-bulk organisational/terminal service provider (Business VoIP solutions) and RIP VoIP service provider.
You can use your computer while talking on the VoIP phone and some service provider offers service that can be used where a high speed Internet connection is not available. Using VoIP service in a new location may affect your ability to connect directly to emergency services. So, be ready to use the services of VoIP solutions but with due care.

VoIP Solutions: Thrives with inherent benefits
VoIP Solutions: Thrives with inherent benefits
by Kristen Kiya
In this high-tech world, expectations of business professionals as well as individual users have moved quite a bit ahead than the traditional dial-up networks. The next generation' people are more likely to step-in to advanced telecommunication services that are fast, reliable, customizable as well as self-manageable. As a matter of fact, this has opened new avenues for the latest VoIP solutions.
The hosted business VoIP solutions help the business houses to gain a strategic advantage in simplifying and enhancing voice and data communications. Unlike expensive traditional systems, IP solution ties with excellent voice quality services as well as value added features that too at minimal rates. As a matter of fact, the users can enjoy making the local calls, long distance or international calls at cheaper rates. Therefore, it can be said that such solutions significantly down-sizes the monthly telephone bills drastically by up to 40-60 percent compared to PSTN services.
As a matter of fact, the advanced IP services are based on the packet switching technique that enables the users to transmit the data over the internet or IP network. While, routing a call over internet, the analog data is digitalised into compressed IP packets. These IP compressed packets absorb the noise on their route and results in uninterrupted communication between the sender and the receiver. Therefore, the users can easily transmit the audio, data, pictures and video over a high-speed single IP network instead of only plain data, in case of PSTN services.
For implementing the VoIP business solutions, one requires phone and Analog Transmission Adapter (ATA). These are considered as standard equipment for the initializing the internet telephony solutions. Generally, the ATA is offered by the VoIP solution provider at the time of signing-in for these services.
Other than its basic benefits of enhanced productivity and cost efficiency, the business houses as well as others can eliminate the expensive roaming expenses. This is because VoIP solutions are location independent that allows the users to carry the VoIP phones along with them, regardless of geographic location. Apart from that, flexibility, adaptability and compatibility are some of the important considerations that must be considered while selecting a VoIP solution provider.

In this high-tech world, expectations of business professionals as well as individual users have moved quite a bit ahead than the traditional dial-up networks. The next generation' people are more likely to step-in to advanced telecommunication services that are fast, reliable, customizable as well as self-manageable. As a matter of fact, this has opened new avenues for the latest VoIP solutions.
The hosted business VoIP solutions help the business houses to gain a strategic advantage in simplifying and enhancing voice and data communications. Unlike expensive traditional systems, IP solution ties with excellent voice quality services as well as value added features that too at minimal rates. As a matter of fact, the users can enjoy making the local calls, long distance or international calls at cheaper rates. Therefore, it can be said that such solutions significantly down-sizes the monthly telephone bills drastically by up to 40-60 percent compared to PSTN services.
As a matter of fact, the advanced IP services are based on the packet switching technique that enables the users to transmit the data over the internet or IP network. While, routing a call over internet, the analog data is digitalised into compressed IP packets. These IP compressed packets absorb the noise on their route and results in uninterrupted communication between the sender and the receiver. Therefore, the users can easily transmit the audio, data, pictures and video over a high-speed single IP network instead of only plain data, in case of PSTN services.
For implementing the VoIP business solutions, one requires phone and Analog Transmission Adapter (ATA). These are considered as standard equipment for the initializing the internet telephony solutions. Generally, the ATA is offered by the VoIP solution provider at the time of signing-in for these services.
Other than its basic benefits of enhanced productivity and cost efficiency, the business houses as well as others can eliminate the expensive roaming expenses. This is because VoIP solutions are location independent that allows the users to carry the VoIP phones along with them, regardless of geographic location. Apart from that, flexibility, adaptability and compatibility are some of the important considerations that must be considered while selecting a VoIP solution provider.

VoIP Solutions; Are They Right For You?
VoIP Solutions; Are They Right For You?
by Craig Thornburrow
VoIP Solutions are available for both business and personal use, but what is VoIP? VoIP stands for Voice over Internet Protocol and generally refers to the use of internet for phone services. There are other terms used to refer to the same thing such as internet telephony, IP telephony, broadband telephony, and broadband phone.
VoIP is publicized to have huge savings over standard telephone usage. Is this a true statement? There is usually a monthly charge for the use of VoIP, but "calls" from VoIP device to VoIP device are at no charge. The monthly fee is to "call" standard phones. Because the internet is worldwide, there is generally no long distance charges applied to the accounts. The service includes features such as 3-way calling; call waiting, call forwarding, caller ID, and automatic redial for no additional fees. If your phone service includes these features, then VoIP could definitely save you money.
There are a few drawbacks to using VoIP for residential "phone" service. Have you ever been surfing the internet and then suddenly your web page is no longer available? Because VoIP depends on internet technology to transmit voice data to either a VoIP device or telephone, when there is a hiccup with the internet, DSL, or cable services, the ability to use the internet for "calls" is rendered useless or at the very least delayed. Another drawback can be a power failure; however, if you have a backup power supply such as a generator, the failure will not hinder your ability to make "calls."
Another thing you may want to consider is that, at the present time, emergency service is either not available or available on a limited basis through this service. Primarily the loss of service is due to the difficulty to locate the VoIP user by geography. If you are able to give your address, 911 services can still be contacted. The trouble only begins if you are unable to give your address for some reason; however, some VoIP providers have a list of addresses where the VoIP is used for the purpose of helping route emergency services. It may be useful to keep a plain old telephone available for any unexpected failures.
VoIP solutions are the hardware and software items available for VoIP that includes such items as IP phones, CPE gateways, high density gateways, and VoIP terminal adapters. The CPE gateways utilize an Ethernet cable to connect to the DSL cable modem for residential service, uses the LAN line to connect to DSL modems, or incorporates DSL with the LAN line automatically for commercial use.
Standard phone lines can be used to hook up VoIP allowing you to use a portable phone handset. If your company is going to grow, it may be possible to hook up to the existing switchboard equipment, making it easier to train your employees. Whatever the size of your company or whether you decide to have VoIP as your residential phone, VoIP solutions are necessary to make your "calls" successful.

VoIP solutions - Bringing innovation to the masses
VoIP solutions - Bringing innovation to the masses.
by Kristen Kiya
One trend that has emerged most distinctly in recent times is the easy availability of high-end computers for both home and office use. The affordable costs of these innovative gadgets having intelligent processors and more than adequate memory options have been responsible for their more rampant use. And one of the fall-outs of this trend is the increasing use of VoIP solutions at the grass-root level. More and more people are switching to VoIP and gaining from the experience with the incorporation of this high-end technology.
With VoIP solutions, vocal communication has become more personal. Individual users are no longer limiting their Internet experience to chatting or browsing for information. As of now, more and more tech-savvy individuals are making the shift to the much more affordable solutions in IP telephony. The costs involved are much lower more so when compared to the services of standard telephone networks. The call quality is good particularly when the voice signals are transferred over high-speed broadband networks.
As a matter of fact, the process through which these VoIP solutions are used to facilitate long distance communications is quite unique to say the least. The internet is used as medium through which the voice signals pass. However, there is a catch. The voice is first converted into digital data packets before being routed to the final destinations. At the receiver's end, the data is converted back into voice signals using a digital to analog converter. All the VoIP business solutions are based on this format of data transfer - and have become quite indispensable within specific organisational frameworks.
Due to the intelligent use of technology, a solution provider of VoIP is able to offer services and solutions at industry leading costs. The logic behind international calls being reasonably priced is quite simple. In IP telephony, users need to pay the charges for using the internet. With their own personal computers and VoIP solutions in place, they are in a position, wherein they can enjoy the advantages of these services to bring in significant changes in their professional and personal lives.
So, the next time you are driven by the desire to make telephonic conversation over the Internet, you need not panic. With a host of VoIP solution providers and the easy availability of some of the best solutions in this domain, you could be nearer to your dream than you can imagine.
