Good bye landlines and hello savings. With the percentage of people using landline decreasing every year and now is the time to move your business to a hosted telephony solution. Technology has reshaped almost every aspect of day-to-day life. In current scenario, where the COVID cases have gone up significantly in the UK yet again, businesses are forced to fall back to remote working. In such a situation, it becomes even more important to have a technology that allows flexible working yet aiding your business to scale higher.
For a business, landline phones are increasingly looking like a thing of the past. Landlines are often tied into old-fashioned contracts and upfront connection costs. That makes it difficult to unlock real value for money. Businesses today need speed, flexibility, and scalability and VoIP gives them this.
With traditional PSTN shutting down very soon, its time to wake up to the reality of VoIP. It allows them to harness the power of the internet and eliminate the restrictions of outdated infrastructure.
We will be looking at 4 relevant reasons why its time to say goodbye to traditional phone system and welcoming VoIP.
1. VoIP can help your business save cost:Traditional landline phones are costly commitments. To keep your communications stack running, you need to pay for equipment, software, and frequent maintenance. With traditional telephony, costs can ramp up at pace.
With a VoIP phone system, you transfer all your daily communications functions into digital space. That way, you can pay for them through a predictable and convenient monthly fee. Setup is simpler, and fees for rental of separate lines are a thing of the past. That’s not to mention the fact that international calls no longer incur excess charges.
2. VoIP gives your workforce the much needed flexibility: VoIP doesn’t tie you to any one physical handset or workstation. VoIP cloud-based connections allow today’s organisations to embrace the rising demand for remote work. What the employees need to connect for starting their work has changed now. All they need is a secure internet connections and a computer (or even a mobile phone). The sales staff of a company are mostly on the move. The flexibility to make and receive calls anywhere can make a huge difference.
3. Scaling your business to new heights even in these testing times: It’s difficult and expensive to get traditional phone systems to grow and evolve along with your business. There’s lots of expense involved in adding extra phone lines to your office and if you are adding another location (new office) then the cost can go up to a great extent. VoIP is different. It helps your business scale faster and hassle-free.
Expanding into multiple locations or adding new people to your team is way easier. As your service is available in the cloud, you can add or remove extra lines in your system whenever you need to. There’s no need to purchase additional capacity when you don’t need it.
4. VoIP is future proof: One of the most important reasons why you need to adopt a VoIP landline is to future proof your communications. IP communications are the future of business telephony. It has a simple plug-and-play format, as well as being able to protect your firm against common landline disruptions. VoIP systems can prepare your organisation for the trends of the future.
