Frequently asked questions
VoIP stands for the Voice over Internet Protocol. VoIP allows for transmission between voice and video via the web, including wired and wireless methods. If you are using a landline for your business, you should consider switching to VoIP for the following reasons:
Cost-effective: In comparison to landline providers, VoIP offers competitive prices due to the ready internet infrastructure. VoIP provides the same quality of calls whilst delivering additional features at a lower cost, proving to be advantageous.
Easy to scale: As your company grows, the need for devices and connections grow. With VoIP, this is easily accessible with a couple of clicks. In comparison, landline providers require lines to be laid physically, increasing time and expenditure.
Added features: What can you do with landline telephony? Only calls and faxes. Switching over to VoIP, you will gain additional features such as advanced call reports, integration of third-party services, smart routing, call recordings and more.
Cloud-Hosted PBX (Private Branch Exchange) is the next generation of the classical PBX. Built on VoIP technology and operating not locally but via the internet. Cloud-hosted PBX can be used with VoIP-ready phones and specific programs commonly known as soft-phones. Aside from making and receiving calls via the web, you will gain access to additional features such as advanced call reports, integration with third-party services, smart routing, real-time monitoring, voicemail to email and more.
Microsoft Teams direct routing allows you to make and accept calls from external numbers within the Teams app. The combination of modern VoIP systems and advanced tools with Microsoft 365, our clients receive an unprecedented opportunity to increase productivity.
0800 numbers are also known as toll-free numbers. Toll-free means that the owner is responsible for paying the cost of the inbound call. However, the call is free of charge for the caller. 0800 numbers are non-geographic: this means they are not linked to any particular location.
