[To know everything about VoIP](https://blog.savincom.co.uk/everything-you-need-to-know-about-voip), we have listed few business benefits for you.

Savincom works with leading VoIP Providers; [Vodafone One net](https://blog.savincom.co.uk/hubfs/One_Net_Business_29_Page_Customer_Brochure_Customer-Facing_3.pdf), [Gamma Horizon](https://blog.savincom.co.uk/hubfs/8-things-you-should-be-looking-for-in-a-hosted-voice-v4.pdf), and [CallSwitch by TelcoSwitch](https://blog.savincom.co.uk/hubfs/Savincom%20CallSwitch%20Business.pdf). below listed are 8 benefits of VoIP for small businesses.

Here are the top 8 benefits of VOIP for small businesses:

1. [Cost-Effective](https://blog.savincom.co.uk/5-ways-voip-helps-smaller-businesses-to-save-cost)

[Know how VoIP can help save more than 30%](https://blog.savincom.co.uk/how-does-voip-help-businesses-save-up-to-30-more). Operating costs for VoIP are significantly lower than the traditional phone companies. Here are specific instances where your organization can save money through VoIP:

- VoIP significantly cuts down domestic and international calls
- Your organization no longer has to maintain separate networks for data and phones.
- As VoIP allows you to take your office extension phone anywhere you go using a smartphone, this slashes your company’s mobile phone costs.
- Teleconferencing and video conferencing eliminate the need for employees who are on fieldwork to travel back to the office in order to attend a meeting or to discuss important matters with colleagues.
- VoIP handsets are less expensive than traditional telephones.

1. Multi-Functionality

There’s more to VoIP than making and receiving calls. Modern VoIP systems like Vodafone One net, Gamma Horizon and CallSwitch by Telcoswitch incorporate other communication services like instant messaging, presence information, teleconferencing, video conferencing, receiving voicemail and faxes via email.

VoIP multi-features like video conferencing allow you to keep in touch with employees to discuss important matters irrespective of where they are in the world. Through this modern communication system, your employees don’t necessarily have to be physically present in the office. They instead can work from home or work from abroad.

With VoIP, voicemail and faxes can be forwarded to your email. Through this system, you’ll receive your messages in one place – your email. This also allows you to archive or forward messages.

1. Secure

Compared to the traditional analog telephone connection, VoIP is much more secure. This modern phone system has standardized encryption protocols, making your calls and data secure – something that can’t be done on a regular telephone connection.

1. Portability

So long as you’ve internet access, you can use your VoIP system anywhere. VoIP allows you to make and receive calls from multiple devices, including your smartphone, ensuring that you can be contacted by customers or by colleagues wherever you are in the world.

It also allows you to transfer calls to your colleagues without requiring customers to call another number. This phone system also allows you to set your status to inform your colleagues whether or not you’re available to take calls.

1. Automated Assistance

With VoIP, answers to simple frequently asked questions can be programmed to serve customers call after office hours. Holiday opening hours, regular opening hours and other important announcements can be programmed, providing your customers optimal service at all hours of the day and night.

1. Call Recording Service

With VoIP, calls can be recorded, allowing you and your colleagues to play back important calls, ensuring that important messages aren’t missed. With this modern phone system, you can also review call logs to determine what time of the day customers are calling the most, how long each call lasts and much more relevant information.

1. Increased Productivity we can even answer the call 

VoIP increases productivity by eliminating “phone tag” – a phenomenon that occurs when two people are trying to call each other by telephone but neither is able to get hold of the other. Phone tag only leads to increased customer frustration, reduced sales and inhibits small businesses the capacity to grow.

With VoIP, phone numbers can be programmed to ring on multiple devices before proceeding to voicemail. This reduces the likelihood of employees and customers experiencing phone tag.

1. Excellent Call Quality

The technology has evolved in such a way that they have even surpassed the traditional landline in terms of call quality.

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.
