How IP telephony works for businesses
IP telephony, also known as VoIP (Voice over IP), involves telephone calls being sent as data packets over the internet instead of over copper networks. For businesses, that means telephony is no longer tied to a physical location or a traditional switchboard. Calls can be received and made from computers, mobile phones, tablets or IP phones â wherever you are.
The big difference from traditional telephony is not just the technology, but the possibilities. IP telephony can be combined with other digital channels such as chat, video and email in a Unified Communications as a Service (UCaaS) solution, creating a more unified and efficient communication.
Advantages of IP telephony for business
- Lower call costs, especially in foreign calls
- Mobility â bring your change in your pocket
- Scalability â add or remove users quickly
- Integracija with other tools, such as CRM or case management
- Features such as call recording, referral and AI services
In addition, companies do not have to invest in expensive hardware, since the system is managed in the cloud and updated on an ongoing basis.
