January 2010 - The benefits of implementing a VoIP System

The pressure is always on to seek out new ways of reducing operational costs, whether by finding cheaper suppliers of goods and services or by increasing the productivity of employees. Voice over IP (VoIP) is the latest business upgrade that is making its mark on day-to-day operations. Recent research by Freeform Dynamics found that in the past two years organisations have begun to move away from external internet based services and embracing formal VoIP solutions.

The shift toward VoIP is being driven by the low operating costs and that VoIP systems can reduce infrastructure cost. The traditional copper-wire telephone systems are being migrated to VoIP to reduce monthly telecom expenses. There is no need to operate two separate networks for data and voice traffic. These technologies can now converge into a single network, which can significantly cut infrastructure costs.

Organisations operating in multiple locations connected by a WAN can run voice traffic between them using VoIP system. With a centrally controlled IP telephony system, any changes network administrators have to make to the telephone system, such as adding a new extension is much easier as there is no back-office wiring closet to visit or complex reprogramming of phones.
