Most companies will agree that the single most important thing that can ensure success or failure of an enterprise is its communication network. The pace of change and the ever increasing demands upon enterprises in Vancouver BC makes it very difficult to compete unless key personnel are available at all times and unless important information can be received or transmitted from any location and at any time. Traditional business telephone systems have failed to keep up with these fast changing demands.

One of the biggest growth markets in the telecommunications field has been internet based communication. VoIP, which stands for Voice over Internet Protocol has taken the world by storm. Customers are queuing up to take advantage of the advanced features, the reliability and the affordability of internet based communication. It offers users a competitive edge that simply cannot be matched by traditional communication methods.

Flexibility is probably one of the major benefits appreciated by internet clients. Traditional networks are expensive to install and they do not offer the flexibility of upgrading or downgrading at will. Internet networks, however, utilize a single and central installation and clients can add locations, departments, users and divisions at will, even if the location is geographically far removed from the central installation.

Internet telephony offers users and clients the ability to make and receive calls from just about anywhere. This means that they are not chained to a desk or a specific location. In addition, users can use a wide variety of devices such as smart phones or tablets to access and use the network. The freedom that these features offer users allows them to be more productive and to be able to communicate on the move.

Most clients will cite the massive cost savings that they have achieved as one of the biggest benefits of internet based networks. A large percentage of clients report that they have, in fact, achieved up to fifty per cent in savings. These savings are compounded when one consider the fact that it is no longer necessary to employ operators at every location. A single operator can manage communications across the entire enterprise.

Even more savings can be achieved due to the fact that an internet based network requires only one installation per enterprise. Conventional PABX systems require constant maintenance and because there need to be an installation at every site, the cost can be extremely high. VoIP software is hosted by the service provider. This means that the client does not pay for ongoing upgrades and maintenance.

When switching to VoIP clients will not lose any of the features, such as call forwarding and conference call facilities that they have become used to. In fact, they will be delighted with a host of new features that will save both time and money. Users will be able to convert voice and fax messages into email messages, arrange call forwarding to any location and enjoy a host of other features that will keep them on the cutting edge.

No organization can function without efficient communication networks. Employees that deal with important role players need to be available and they need the ability to be able to respond to queries instantly. VoIP offers just this. It is efficient, reliable and cheap.
