What are the cost savings from VoIP?

The day is coming when all businesses – large and small – will need to use a hosted cloud phone system. It has already been announced that in the UK we are less than 5 years away from having all ISDN services replaced by Session Initiated Protocol (SIP) systems.

In a nutshell, that means anyone not already planning to switch over to a Voice over Internet Protocol (VoIP) phone system will be forced to make the move.

Making the change to using VoIP technology ahead of time makes sense. Not least because it can save your organization a substantial amount of money.

Slash phone bills

For many companies – especially work from home entrepreneurs – landlines and mobiles are a large part of outgoings.

The beauty of a VoIP phone system is that your bill could be reduced to a fraction of the existing level. Some companies report savings of up to 70%.

When time is money

Apart from reducing ongoing costs, VoIP systems can also smooth the wheels of industry and commerce to help you become more profitable.

Cloud phone systems integrate business functions and communication channels into one easy-to-use dashboard. For example, you can send and receive videos and data within your call, saving time and ensuring you meet deadlines. It also impresses your clients.

Hosted phone systems are available 24/7, for global and local business needs. That means no more missed opportunities due to convoluted and haphazard contact via landlines and mobiles. If you have team members at remote locations or constantly on the move, the advantage of cloud phone systems is that staff are always “in the loop”.

Plus, if an important call comes in, your receptionist can see at a glance who is available to deal with it and doesn’t have to turn the client away.

Cost savings on business phone systems

Clearly the actual amount you pay for your cloud hosted phone system depends on any extra services and capabilities you want built in.

However, the initial cost of setting it up is minimal. You don’t necessarily need to invest in any new equipment. Your VoIP communications can sit on your existing laptops and mobiles.
