VoIP is a reasonably recent and extremely popular trend, and it’s now being used by people worldwide on at home, at work and on the go. VoIP phone systems can be used in place of the more common ISDN lines that we’ve been utilising for generations. But why switch from your standard ISDN line to a VoIP line?

There are several key reasons and advantages to using a VoIP system, especially for those running a business. The single biggest advantage however is the reduced cost, which has caused them to be extremely popular all over the country (both home and business). The cost of line rental with a VoIP phone is considerably cheaper (up to 60% in some cases), the cost of calls is reduced and phonecalls to other VoIP users is usually completely free of charge.

There are also no charges for adding extra lines (or removing them), making the system very appealing to business users.

There are other general benefits for businesses too, be it a small local firm or a large national corporation. The system will allow you to have unified communications throughout your business, and can also give outsiders the impression that you’re far more developed than you actually are. Rather than being fixed to a specific area code for your group of numbers, you’ll be allowed to add as many numbers as you like using any area code, meaning you can present the illusion of having offices in numerous different locations. These aren’t restricted to the UK either, as you can have overseas dialling codes, or go for an 0845 premium number.

The other major benefit to VoIP is the ease of which you can move over phone numbers. Let’s say your changing over from ISDN to VoIP, keeping your old number is no problem, meaning you don’t have to worry about missing important business calls (or those thousands of business cards you gave out with the old number). Once you’ve made the switch over to the VoIP system, you’ll be able to set your number to whichever line you want, as there’s no physical connection between the number and the phone line, as with ISDN systems. It also makes it extremely easy to move office should you need or want to, without having to change your number.
