What is VOIP Also Known As Voice Over Internet Protocol

Sunday, January 10th, 2010

I hear allot about VOIP what is it?

VOIP stands for voice over internet protocol. Basically it means making phones calls over your local area network (LAN) or even across the Internet.

VOIP is normally cheaper than your PSTN that’s public switched telephone network i.e. your local carrier.

VOIP is a good choice for businesses as well to save money on long distance calls if they have many satellite offices. VOIP service providers usually have lower fees because they are not a government regulated currently as the phone systems which at one time were a monopoly. VOIP can even be free if you connect directly to another VOIP client.

VOIP routers can send your incoming phone calls to you anywhere thus cutting down on the number of lines and you can be reached anywhere you have a Internet connection.

This and the combination of technologies like WiFi are going to make for one huge network. That voice, data and video will be sent everywhere and from anywhere. With this VOIP technology you have allot more features as well such as Caller ID, Call Forwarding and answering services all from your computer or PDA.

There are some issues to still be worked on.

Here are some:

The amount of band with required.

Security issues- what type of encryption should be used and how much is going to slow down the call and network?

This is a exciting and new technology which I will be writing more about.

Why Use a Telecom Master Agent?

Saturday, April 4th, 2009

Any company has to be continually aware of the upcoming trends and technologies in the telecommunications industry and study how these can be leveraged to cut down their telecommunications costs. For example, employing VOIP over an IP-PBX system can result in substantial savings. Using VoIP, calling from one computer to another is absolutely free. And even though calling a telephone mobile or landline – from a computer involves a certain fee, this is significantly less than the international call costs that the company would have to bear were they made over the conventional phone networks.

Businesses can also consider employing specialised software to analyze not only telecom bills but also rates and plans, as well as to compare various vendor offerings. Another option is for businesses to outsource to experts who specialize in telecommunications analysis and cost management, thereby achieving better results at lower prices.

One of the best ways a business can ensure that it is receiving the most robust and cost effective solution, is to work with a telecom master agent that represents different carriers providing different services such as commercial long distance and local phone service, high speed internet access, data services or even integrated voice and data services. A master agent first understands the telecommunications needs of a business and then works with the carriers it represents to provide a host of solutions that will fit these needs as also the budget of the company.

Taking this in to consideration, it should seem self-explanatory that bringing down telecom costs has to be a priority for most businesses. Even So, overseeing telecommunications costs is not an easy task either for a Fortune 500 company or a small business. With hundreds or thousands of bills for various services being received, it is hard work to go carefully through all expenses listed. Further, this is just one part of the problem. To really manage telecommunications costs, a business has to have a regular and comprehensive examination strategy to monitor and change, if need be, various plans, services and resources.

When it is time for renewing a contract, a company should make sure their contracts are competitive, instead of just automatically renewing their present contract. They can request various carriers to provide details of specific plans or packages the company is interested in and ask them to quote a price for those services, or have a master agent compare costs.

It is also essential that outright billing faults be discovered and corrected. Billing mistakes can be of different types ” a line or service that has been discontinued continues to be billed, costs indicated in contracts or quotes are not being reflected, there are wrong assessment of taxes and many more. Auditing telecom bills is time consuming and though the faults detected may not seem to add up to much per month, when accumulated over the year, they add significantly to total telecom costs.
