VoIP is an acronym of Voice over Internet Protocol and it simply means calling over a data network i.e. the internet.

VoIP connects phone calls via the internet

Calling over a data network (internet connection) has some great advantages. Flexibility and savings of 30 to 60% on operational telephone costs are generally seen as the most important benefits.

 

Voys, your gateway to VoIP (Voice over Internet Protocol)—a modern solution that transforms how businesses communicate by using the internet to make and receive phone calls. VoIP replaces traditional phone systems that rely on dedicated copper lines with digital technology, allowing voice data to be transmitted over data networks, such as the internet.

What is VoIP?

VoIP enables voice calls to be made using an internet connection rather than through conventional telephone lines. Instead of using a separate network for voice calls and another for data, VoIP integrates both into a single network. This integration provides businesses with enhanced flexibility, cost savings, and advanced communication features.

Benefits of Switching

Switching to VoIP offers several key advantages:

  • Cost Savings: VoIP typically costs 30% to 60% less than traditional phone services, as it eliminates the need for separate voice and data networks and reduces long-distance call charges.
  • Ease of Setup: VoIP systems are easy to set up and manage, requiring minimal hardware and infrastructure compared to traditional phone systems.
  • Flexibility: VoIP allows employees to make and receive calls from anywhere with an internet connection, providing seamless communication whether they are in the office, working remotely, or travelling.
  • Scalability: VoIP systems can easily scale with your business needs, accommodating growth without requiring significant upgrades or changes to infrastructure.
