The benefits of cloud-based VoIP phone systems

Cloud telephony is on the grow, with more and more small businesses taking it up – not least because it makes remote working much easier.

With a cloud-based VoIP phone system, you make and receive phone calls over the Internet instead of via traditional copper landlines. There are lots of additional features that come with VoIP too, and with the landline switch-off coming there’s no better time to make the jump.

VoIP is more flexible

VoIP phone systems are very flexible as they aren’t tied to a specific location. The Cloud-based technology allows users to have quick access to their phone systems from anywhere they have internet access. So you can take calls from your smartphone or tablet too. It also means you can travel or move locations without the stress of missing important calls or meetings, even out of hours.

VoIP is more cost-effective 

VoIP phone systems can also save your business money. The fact you’re signing up to a monthly package, like you do with your mobile phone, helps you keep track of your spending. Without physical hardware, VoIP phone systems also remove any installation fees associated with a more traditional phone system.

VoIP is more dynamic

The digital work world is always evolving. With a cloud-based VoIP phone system, the technology can evolve with you. These systems can grow alongside your company, especially if you’re looking to take on more staff or move premises. Due to the digital nature of the product, updates, upgrades, and plan expansions are easily accessible.

VoIP phone systems come with lots of business-friendly features

As we’ve already touched on, cloud-based VoIP systems also provide customers with more call features than a traditional phone system. These features include call menus, call queues, hold music, video meetings and much more. VoIP systems also contain features that reveal call analytics and trends through call reports, allowing companies to better understand their business and customers.

VoIP is easy to set up

Setting up a VoIP phone system can be done fully remotely and requires no extra cost. It is as simple as signing up online and letting the calls flow in. All you need is a stable internet connection (preferably fibre) and a VoIP provider that makes this process easy, and efficient.
