WHAT IS VOIP?
Voice over internet is the future of telephony

VoIP stands for Voice over Internet Protocol. It is also referred to as IP or Internet Telephony. It is another way of making phone calls, with the difference of making the calls cheaper or completely free. The ‘phone’ part is not always present anymore, as you can communicate without a telephone set, or convert your existing phone system at a very low cost.

VoIP has a lot of advantages over the traditional phone system. The main reason for which people are so massively turning to VoIP technology is the cost. VoIP is said to be cheap, but most people use it for free. Yes, if you have a computer with a microphone and speakers, and a good Internet connection, you can communicate using VoIP for free. This can also be possible with your mobile, home phone or office PABX system.

There are many ways of using VoIP technology. It all depends on where and how you will be making the calls. It could be at home, at work, in your corporate network, during travel and even on the beach. The way you make calls varies with the VoIP service you use.   

Talkworld offers an array of different packages for your every need
.

What’s cheap?
VoIP can be used for free with computers, between branches and even, in some cases, with mobile and
land line phones. However, when it is used to completely replace the PSTN (Land line and mobile phone operators)  service, then it has a price. But this price is way cheaper than standard phone calls. This becomes thrilling when you consider international calls. Some people have had their communication costs on international calls cut down by 90%, and up to 40% on local calls thanks to VoIP.

What makes calls free or paid really depends on many factors, including the nature of the call and the Talkworld service selected. You only have to choose one depending on the nature of your communication and needs.   

The VoIP Trend
VoIP is a relatively new technology and it has already achieved wide acceptance and use. There is still a lot to improve and it is expected to have major technological advances in VoIP in the future. It has so far proved to be a good candidate for replacing the POTS (Plain Old Telephone System).

 

The growth of VoIP today can be compared to that of the Internet in the early 90’s.
