The average savings businesses see after switching to a VoIP system range anywhere from 30% to 50%. While the amount of savings can vary from case to case, almost all companies see a meaningful reduction in their telecommunication expenses. The most significant cost savings are realised by companies switching from an on-premise phone system, to a cloud-based phone system.
We have listed 5 ways in which VoIP helps small businesses to save cost:
1.Reduced hardware costs
Imagine being able to implement a business-telephone system with powerful features to increase productivity and save time in all areas of your company at a fraction of the cost you were expecting. Not all VoIP providers are equal in this regard. Whilst some offer discounted or even free hardware, others still charge a large fee for initial hardware. If you’re thinking about integrating VoIP into your business, it’s worth getting in touch with us.
2.Low cost phone calls
With the bundle deals most VoIP providers offer, you can save large sums on standard calls. This will mean a lot of saving, annually.
3.Cost-effective expansion
The expansion of your business is likely to present the need for more lines and handsets to be added to your network. Normally, installing extra phone lines and paying the associated line rental can become stressful and very expensive. By using a VoIP phone system utilising the cloud, you can add a user in less time and for a much smaller cost.
4.Software upgrades
Making any kind of change to legacy phone systems takes time, and can be expensive, which often means businesses find themselves using an outdated system shortly after it’s been installed. With a VoIP system, your provider can easily roll out updates, so you’re never behind!
5.Increased productivity
VoIP also provides advanced communication capabilities including conference calling, and auto-attendant ‘press 4 for sales’ answering systems. Previously, small businesses would have been priced out of using features like this, but with VoIP that’s no longer the case. Employees can make use of these advanced communication features day-to-day, saving them time and money.
