While smart
voip can act as a complete substitute for the traditional PSTN
phone system, there are a few tasks that it performs particularly efficiently.
Indeed, what is the point of merely having a replacement without clear
benefits? Well apart from the ease of management and having to worry only about
a single network, the Internet brings all of its flexibility and power to smart voip technology.
International calling is probably VoIP's
biggest strength. The traditional phone network has somehow evolved in a way
that makes geographical boundaries critically important. The Internet on the
other hand has no such restrictions. You can send an e-mail to chat with anyone
anywhere in the world regardless of where they are. The costs are the same
whether they're sitting next you or at the other end of the earth. The same
logic is true for VoIP. Using the Internet, you can talk seamlessly to people
using the same telephone number on any smart
voip enabled device when you travel. For businesses, this could
easily result in a savings of thousands of dollars.
Smart voip is also very powerful for inter-employee
communication. It is estimated that a huge proportion of total voice traffic in
an organization takes place between people who work each other. With the PSTN
system, we need to have workarounds like extensions etc. It doesn't lend itself
naturally to situations where people within an organization can talk to each
other for free. smart voip on
the other hand has this kind of structure built into its DNA. Your SIP service
provider can freely connect all Smart voip calls between any two
individuals on the same network - regardless of whether they are within your
organization or outside it. This is because the entire call can be completed
over the Internet since your smart
voip service knows the SIP address to which your call has to be
routed to.
smart
voip is also awesome for
situations when you have to work from home and replicates the office experience
as much as possible. Due to the ability of Smart voip to maintain a single
number for various devices, the personal phone line at home can be configured
to ring whenever someone dials the Smart voip number of the landline in
your office. You can choose to take the call on your smart phone or from a
fixed line. The ability to maintain the same working environment and not care
about the device in use or your physical location is the key driver of Smart
voip adoption in today's globalized world. With more and more
businesses opting for flexibility in their working conditions, the adoption of smart voip is only set to
grow.
