If you would have conducted a survey among a random group of people just five years ago asking them if they know what VOIP means I guarantee you wouldn’t have had more than 20% positive response. But today it seems like VOIP has become a common term and the latest trend. In fact, with such simple VOIP solutions available today even my grandmother had her line switched to a VOIP line (not that she really knows what it means besides the fact that it is much cheaper).
But while VOIP is slowly taking over the domestic household phone market, it is moving in giant leaps when it comes to the business sector. The main reason for this is that while VOIP can benefit just about everyone, the business sector has the most to gain. Packet8.net is slowly becoming one of the leading providers of business VOIP with extremely powerful yet scalable VOIP solutions.
You can browse their online list of service plans and custom build the right solution for your business. Should you require further capabilities in the future you can always add on modules to your service plan. I am especially interested with two of their plans and will probably go with some sort of a combination of both. For one thing they offer what’s called a “Global Extension” which offers unlimited calls to a number of international destinations. Since we are frequently in touch with clients oversees this is good for us (you can also get the “Unlimited Extension” which provides unlimited calls to U.S., Canada and a select number of international destinations). The other thing I find interesting is their switchboard service application which gives small businesses the advanced power of a professional switchboard for a fraction of the cost and without any special equipment (it is all managed through your computer).
