# Embrace Flexible working with VoIP

Embrace flexible working with VoIP. Gone are the days when you were expected to be in office all days of the week. Now more and more companies are giving 'work from anywhere' option to it's employees. 

Working from home has already become common place for many of us, due to already having the tools and capabilities required to do your job – usually no more than a laptop and a phone – at home.

Small to medium sized businesses could reap the benefits of granting workers more flexibility, with employees being more motivated, committed and generally happier being cited among the possible benefits. It also helps businesses save on a lot of cost. 

So, if you're a business, how can VoIP ensure your employees remain connected with each other and the business in such circumstances?

### No such thing as a fixed location

With VoIP there is no such thing as a fixed location. Once it has been set up, a phone can be moved to any location providing that location has an internet connection, and start receiving calls again once it's plugged in.

So, if someone spends a large percentage of their day on the phone talking to customers, this needn't be affected by working from home. All they need do is unplug their phone and take it home with them and they will be able to carry out their duties as normal.

### Simple call forwarding and routing

Why limit an incoming call to just one location? With a VoIP system you can easily set an incoming call to ring on multiple destinations at the same time, so if you have employees at work and home simultaneously, you might choose this so whoever is most ready to take a call can answer it first.

Alternatively, you may want a call to ring on a particular number first, before ringing on another number if the call is not answered after a certain number of seconds – this helps to reduce the chances of a call going completely unanswered.

You can even set incoming calls to ring on external landline or mobile numbers, meaning you aren't just limited to forwarding calls to a VoIP phone.

### Mini telephone conferencing

If something vitally important comes up where you need to speak to more than one person, sometimes a group email is simply not urgent enough or practical enough to hold a meeting over. This is where 3-way calling can come to your rescue.

With this you are able to hold a mini telephone conference with two other parties, saving you the inconvenience of having to call one person before hanging up and calling the other; enabling the three of you to exchange ideas between each other quickly and efficiently without having to make multiple phone calls or relying on people checking their emails.

These days most new age phone manufacturers are plugging flexibility as the latest buzz word in the advanced internet telephony services. With the traditional PSTN services which is now nearly coming to an end, VoIP flexibility gives the liberty to the users to expand or add the telephone lines to their existing systems.

Regardless of the geographical area, VoIP flexibility allows the users to access their service providers from anywhere- even from remote areas. As a matter of fact, the users can carry their IP phones along with them, wherever they go. These solutions are flexible; they provide access to local as well as roaming calls at comparatively lower rates. This is made possible because Internet telephony functions on the principle of packet switching. In this, the analog voice is converted into digital format before being transferred over the Internet. Therefore, in the areas such as airports, parks and cafes one can enjoy cost-effective communication with ease; these areas can be easily converted to wireless hot spots for the purpose.

The VoIP services come with attractive packages that facilitate both communication as well as entertainment. They are perfect for making tasks more convenient and efficient. Unlike PSTN services, the users are able to enjoy the entire range of services for an affordable rate. Therefore, it can be said that voice over IP puts all the services together in a flexible package, wherein telephone, digital television, high-end Internet access and many more are made available to the users. The users are able to save on their money while opting for state-of-the-art services.

The cost saving, and voice quality are two basic objectives of the VoIP technology. As a matter of fact, the cost efficiency features have helped the business houses and long-distance callers to enjoy calling at substantially low rates. This is mainly due to the fact that in the call termination, the broadband Internet connection is used that means - heavy taxes and charges that would usually be incurred with regular telephone companies can be avoided. Apart from that, the voice over IP also ensures excellent voice quality without any flaws. With these basic functions, there is a definite improvement in the productivity of the organizations for sure.

The users also enjoy the value-added benefits that have increased with the popularity of the technology. The VoIP flexibility also ensures that the users avail some of the common value-added benefits including caller ID, call waiting, 3-way calling, speed dialling, call forwarding, and free voice mail.

Finally, it can be said that with the rise in the demand for the latest IP solutions, communications have become more flexible. Moreover, the internet telephony services are making their way into the advanced telecom sector with new and more innovative tools.

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.
