What are the advantage of VOIP? amrutha 12-March-2008 10:20:54 AMComments Low cost. If you have a broadband Internet connection (DSL or cable), you can make PC-to-PC phone calls anywhere in the world for free. If you wish to make a PC-to-phone connection, there's usually a charge for this but probably much cheaper than your regular phone service. You can pay as you go or you can sign up with a VOIP service provider and pay a monthly fee in return for unlimited calls within a certain geographic area. For example, some VOIP services in the United States allow you to call anywhere in North America at no extra charge. Overseas calls are charged at a relatively small rate. Portability. You can take your cheap phone service with you and make and receive phone calls wherever there is a broadband connection simply by signing in to your VOIP account. This makes VOIP as convenient as e-mail. If you are traveling, simply pack a headset and use your laptop plugged into the Internet, or plug a VOIP phone directly into the Internet connection and you can talk to your family or business associates for almost nothing. If you don't have a VOIP phone, use an analog terminal adaptor (ATA) to connect a regular phone to the Internet. Today you can find ATAs that small, portable and inexpensive. A great idea for frequent travelers. Phone-to-phone VOIP is also portable. When you sign up with a VoIP service provider the Internet phone or adaptor that is used with that service is assigned a unique number. This 'phone number' remains valid even if your VoIP service is in Cleveland and you are connected to the Internet in Bangkok. An Internet phone is small and light enough to take with you anywhere. Simply plug it into a broadband connection anywhere in the world and you can make and receive calls just as though you were in your own home or office. Features. Unlike regular phone service which usually charges more for extra features, VOIP comes with a host of advanced communication features. For example, call forwarding, call waiting, voicemail, caller ID and three-way calling are some of the many services included with VOIP telephone service at no extra charge. You can also send data such as pictures and documents at the same time you are talking on the phone. From:www.quickstartvoip.com/voip-advantages.html Posted by sagitraz 1.
