By Diane Mitchell


The way in which business is conducted have changed considerably over the past decade or two. Technology has seen to it that even smaller businesses are now able to compete on a global platform and competition is fiercer than ever before. Consumers have become more conscious of the fact that they do not own loyalty to any business. Businesses have to give excellent service. By moving over to hosted VoIP Vancouver companies strive to provide this service that is demanded from them.

Internet based communication systems have been around for some time. They were slow, initially, to make an impression on businesses because they require a fast, reliable internet connection. In days gone by there were large areas where internet access was simply not available or else it was very slow. This is no longer the case. There is hardly a place in the world left where it is impossible to access the internet.

For many companies, the main motivating factor for moving over to internet based systems is the promise that they will save a significant amount. This is indeed the case. Some larger clients have stated that they managed to half their previous communication bills. For major companies these savings can translate into savings of millions every year.

Saving on the monthly bill by moving to internet systems is just the beginning of the savings that can be made. Older systems, such as PABX, required the installation and maintenance of expensive hardware at every location, site, building and branch. With internet based systems only one central installation is necessary and, best of all, it is hosted and maintained by the service provider.

Clients quickly learn that the savings on their communication bills are is not the biggest benefit of these systems. With older systems, users had to be physically present at a work station in order to make or receive call. This severely restricted their ability to be where they are most needed. Internet systems can be used anywhere and users can make and receive calls even when thousands of miles away from their offices.

Another major benefit is the fact that users can use a wide variety of devices to access the system. Any device, such as a laptop, tablet or smart phone, that can access the internet, can be used. Even better, users are not restricted to using the same device at all times. There user accounts are stored in the cloud and they have full access to these records at all times.

Users of older systems such as PABX have grown used to the ability to transfer calls, voice mail and call forwarding. With internet based systems they still have these features available to them, but they also have a lot of other features that are designed to help them be as efficient as the possibly can be. Users enjoy benefits such as conference calling, video conferences, voice to email, fax to email, and many other exciting features.

There can be no doubt that internet based systems are the future. These systems are gaining fast in popularity and ongoing research and development makes them more and more efficient and attractive. Clients quickly find out that the savings they achieve is only the tip of the iceberg of benefits offered to them.
