In the event that your organization is developing, VoIP provides for you adaptability. You do not have to allocate resources to new fittings while including new virtual numbers. Framework gives opportunities in including and evacuating lines without the need to pay for ground lines.

Example of business usage of VoIP
The ideal method for considering the potential of VoIP is to study its application within other company settings. Let us consider an organization with around 20 clients spanning two continents utilizing VoIP for inbound and outbound calls. The Head Office is situated in San Francisco, yet the organizations is situated in Rome. Experts provide services to customers within the Italian office.

The company will gain:

  • the possibility of unlimited outbound lines
  • the possibility of unlimited inbound lines
  • free internet calls
  • a global telephony framework


 If the organization needs virtual numbers for twenty employees, ten at the office, eight employees working from home and two experts abroad, this can be achieved with VoIP.

The ten people at the office uses hand-held SIP phones. Every worker gets two devoted numbers, one for the US and one for Italy, which means that they can utilize the same SIP telephone to contact clients in both San Francisco and Rome.

By utilising the free software for PC/MAC or mobile devices, employees working from home can have a local number for Rome or, for universal help desk use, they can also utilize worldwide numbers. All calls to the office as well as ‘master-numbers’ are free of charge.

The company experts in Rome, would just need apps for mobile devices and an internet connection to make and receive calls. For this purpose, they can use Wi-Fi or mobile operators’ internet solutions.

By using VoIP telephony, they can contact employees within the whole company free of charge and numbers in UK and Italy are charged locally.

What hardware do you need?
The only thing required to get started with VoIP is an internet connection, you do not need any expensive PBX fittings.

If you lean towards utilizing hand-held telephone, you can get a SIP telephone with the virtual number appended to it.

Do I have to sign long term contract?
Not all VoIP administrators will offer fleeting contracts. Generally, you will need to sign a year-long contract, however, VoIPstudio operates without any long haul contracts.
