# 5 ways VoIP helps smaller businesses to save cost

![voip](https://blog.savincom.co.uk/hs-fs/hubfs/voip.jpg?width=570&name=voip.jpg)

The average savings businesses see after switching to a **[VoIP](https://www.savincom.co.uk/fixed-voice-connectivity-and-unified-communications/)**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](https://www.savincom.co.uk/bt-is-soon-phasing-out-isdn-pstn-lines/)helps small businesses to [save cost](https://blog.savincom.co.uk/saving-cost-for-smes):

**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](https://blog.savincom.co.uk/gain-access-to-all-communications-with-one-solution) 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change to legacy phone systems takes time, and can be expensive, which often means businesses find themselves using an outdated system shortly after it’s been installed.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.

If you are not using VoIP yet, then do it now.

I would like to thank savincom for the hard work that they have done, they have managed to meet all our requirements and have delivered it in a timely fashion. They have reduced our monthly outgoings for our mobiles by a 1/5 of which we are very happy about.

 Maintenance Manager, Luxury Hotel Group

Since moving to Savincom, we have received excellent and responsive customer service, the small number of issues we have experienced have been resolved in an efficient and expert manner. We have significantly reduced our running costs, with the proactive account management, currently running a reduction of c.40% on costs, the cost reduction has been most prevalent around roaming and international calling. The transfer from Vodafone Direct to Savincom Vodafone was smooth and seamless, with onsite support offered during the days of the transfer. If I was to score them out of 10, it would be 10 as the have excelled as a service partner.

 Office Manager, Leading Global Commodity Merchant

We have worked with Savin Communications for four years now and we are delighted with the work carried out so far.  We have 300+ connections, so service needs to be of the highest quality, which is what we get with Savin Communications. We have a rapid staff turnover and Savin assist us when utilising connections. We used to be on a plan where we were constantly going over minutes and data allowances. Savin Communications has helped us source a much better quality plan and they understand the high standards that our organisation have and are most efficient in delivering well within time limits…. The account manager is always easy to contact and help is really appreciated, meetings with him are regular. The assistance and support we receive is always   
 responsive, proactive and excellent at all times. The advice given is easy to understand along with their online portal which is easy to use too, communicated in a friendly accessible manner. I would highly recommend Savin Communications.

 ICT Manager, National Charity

Having paid overly expensive mobile phone bills for several years, we switched to Savincom who assured us of substantial savings, especially for our mobile phone usage abroad. They were not wrong! Our bills have practically halved since the switch and furthermore Savincom provide a great support service, with any queries or problems being acknowledged and dealt with swiftly and professionally.

 Finance Manager, Global Shipping Company

I can confirm that we switched over our account from a direct one held with one of the Networks, to one under Savincom’s control and have been more than happy with the service thus far. As a Canadian Investment Bank with frequent overseas travellers, I found doing business direct with the Network over the past few years and my numerous dedicated account managers very frustrating indeed. Wrong price plans, outdated tariffs, changes of Account Managers, limited cover on the weekend support desk, and bolt -on’s not being applied to our overseas travellers etc. We are seeing benefits in not having to deal with the Network directly. I would be happy to recommend them in terms of the mobile contract that they proposed and especially their customer service.

 Operations Manager, Investment Bank

Since using Savincom our bills have noticeably decreased and every possible bundle is being added and removed when necessary. The service levels are a world away from what we experienced previously; I get a response back from their support team in at least 5 minutes, and everyone is extremely helpful. The account management is makes a big difference as well. Everything is straightforward and I can request information on our account and be sent a detailed report. I would highly recommend Savincom.

 Office Manager, Investment Company

I have used Savin for the last 4 years and their customer service, support, timescale to response and resolve any queries etc. has been first class! I am the IT Manager for a large construction based Group and as you can appreciate we have a large number of guys based on construction sites who break their phone frequently (and lose them!) so I require a swift service to replace phones and sims, bar phone lines and order new lines (either phone or 4G dongles) ASAP, all of which Savin deliver! So I would recommend Savin without hesitating!

 IT Manager, Construction Group

The highlight for me is being able to shoot an email to Savincom support and almost   
 immediately getting an engaging response, they want to solve my problems rather   
 than assign blame to someone. Overall we are very pleased to be working with a great team.

 IT Manager, Private Equity

Savincom are my righthand. I just phone and everything gets dealt with – no more long maddening calls to mobile providers. Thank you Savincom. You guys rock!

 Andrea Sequeira

Not only have our monthly bills been cut by more than half, savincom saved hours of my time spent on the phone to network direct customer support lines.

 Sujin Bailey

Having had our mobile phone contracts managed by savincom has saved the company considerable time and administrative effort.
