There are many advantages that VoIP Phone systems have to support business.
A VoIP phone system, or Voice over Internet Protocol phone system, is a technology that enables voice communication over the internet rather than traditional telephone lines. It is a modern cost-effective and flexible communication solution. With a VoIP phone system, businesses can make and receive calls using internet-connected devices such as computers, smartphones, or IP phones. VoIP phone systems offer advanced features like call forwarding, voicemail to email, conference calling, and integration with other business applications. They provide scalability, mobility, and cost savings compared to traditional phone systems, making them a popular choice for modern businesses.
A VoIP phone system works by using the internet to transmit phone calls. When a call is made, your voice is converted into digital data packets. These packets are then sent over the internet to the recipient. At the recipient’s end, the digital data packets are converted back into voice signals that can be heard. This process allows for phone calls to be made using an internet connection instead of traditional telephone lines. It enables business productivity, as you can make and receive calls from different devices like computers or smartphones.
Eliminate the need for multiple dedicated phone lines which can be expensive.
Removes the need for costly telephone infrastructure like onsite servers.
Call costs reduced due to making calls through the internet.
Increased efficiency through working with other business applications.
Reduces missed calls through call forwarding, hunt groups and call recording.
For a VoIP phone system you will need a few fundamental requirements. Fortunately, if you lack any of these requirements a telecoms provider can usually support you in achieving them.
A stable internet connection: You will need an internet connection that almost never goes down as you are reliant on it to make and receive calls.
Sufficient bandwidth: Your bandwidth will need to be high enough to support the amount of simultaneous calls your business requires.
Network security measures: Your local network and machines should have a security system in place.
VoIP service provider: You need a VoIP provider who will supply you with the required software and servers to enable VoIP calls.
Computer, Mobile or Optional handheld phones: Almost every computer or mobile used in modern day business will be compatible with our softphone app. If you would rather have a physical phone as the main means of answering calls we have a range of modern handsets.
What is the best VoIP phone system?
The best VoIP phone system is a subjective question, it wholly depends on your business requirements. The best VoIP phone system is one that provides the features that you need at a price point that your business can afford. Some businesses will require unique features that are supported by more expensive VoIP solution providers whilst other businesses will require a more standard solution at a more affordable price range.
Yes, VoIP is amazing for small businesses. Not only does it provide an above and beyond solution for your communication requirements, but it also allows for small businesses to adopt features that are stereotypically associated with bigger businesses. This makes your small business appear more sophisticated, established, and trustworthy to potential customers.
A Voice over Internet Protocol (VoIP) phone system offers significant advantages over analog systems, making it an optimal choice for modern businesses. First and foremost, VoIP systems leverage the power of the internet, enabling seamless communication across multiple devices and locations. With VoIP, businesses can consolidate their voice and data networks, resulting in reduced infrastructure costs, reduced monthly bills and simplified management.
Additionally, VoIP offers a range of useful telephony features that are not available for an analog system which improves the efficiency of a business and staff.
VoIP phone systems also allow businesses to adapt to business requirements over time in a way that analog systems do not provide. Scale up or down when required and add features when your business needs them. In comparison analog would normally require you to know your requirements at the point of installation.
There is two ways that a VoIP phone system are installed and both are managed by Enreach to save you the hassle.
If you opt to have an on premise VoIP phone solution then one of our expert technicians will arrive on site and install the necessary hardware and customise the software to your unique business requirements. After the instillation is complete, we guide you through the system features and answer any questions you might have so that you’re comfortable with the new set up.
If you opt for a cloud VoIP phone system, we will collect your requirements and proceed to configure your system remotely. Once the system is accurately set up to meet your specific needs, we will provide you with your login details, enabling you to start using it promptly. If you require optional hardware, such as handheld phones or headsets, we will configure them at Enreach to align with your requirements and ship them to you via post. These devices will be pre-configured for immediate use upon plugging them in.
How many lines can a VoIP phone system support?
This typically is a question that evolves around your on-premise internet bandwidth. If you have a broadband provider with a fibre-optic connection, then you will be able to support many simultaneous calls. Unfortunately, on the opposite side, if you happen to be in an area where broadband infrastructure is lower than the UK average then you might encounter issues with maxing out your bandwidth which in turn will affect calls.
If bandwidth is an issue, Enreach can provide suitable broadband for businesses like yours, enabling you to accomplish more.
A VoIP PBX (Private Branch Exchange) phone system is a communication solution that combines Voice over Internet Protocol (VoIP) technology with the functionality of a traditional onsite PBX system. It allows businesses to manage their internal and external phone calls from a local server box. Instead of using traditional phone lines, VoIP PBX systems use the internet to transmit voice data, enabling cost savings, flexibility, and advanced features. The PBX component refers to the system’s ability to route calls internally within the organisation, handle extensions, manage voicemail, and provide other telephony features. By integrating VoIP technology with PBX functionality, businesses can enjoy the benefits of modern communication systems while maintaining the control and features traditionally associated with onsite PBX systems.
A cloud VoIP phone system is a solution that operates solely online without any requirement for physical hardware. The PBX box is hosted on a cloud server where it manages the call directs and features that come with a modern phone system.
This has 3 big benefits over an onsite VoIP PBX solution:
