Business VoIP allows for 'seamless communication'

Business VoIP solutions can offer 'seamless communication' between multiple offices, it has been claimed.

A correspondent for technology website booshnews.com has outlined the various benefits for firms which introduce the technology.

"VoIP telephone systems provide the ability for phones spread out among a diverse geography to seamlessly communicate using data networks as if they were all in one building including dialing extensions and transferring calls," the writer said.

Firms with large phone bills can also profit from the service as VoIP call plans are cheaper than traditional networks, while businesses can also publish local numbers in foreign countries to reduce costs.

A recent report by Infonetics Research estimated that number of extensions on hosted VoIP will nearly double between 2010 and 2012.

The firm also claimed that small businesses with under 100 employees are ideally suited to implement hosted VoIP services.
