Time to upgrade to IP Telephony?

IP Telephony (sometimes referred to as VOIP) is a phone service delivered over an internet connection. As the service is hosted remotely over the internet, it has several unique advantages. It allows you to make calls at a fraction of the cost, eliminates the need for any onsite equipment, and allows you to access a range of features that can drive productivity, encourage collaboration, or keep your business safe with a range of security options.
