The Future of Communications - Voice Over Internet
When was the last time that you were able to make along-distance call for free? If you said "never", youprobably have not been introduced to VOIP or VoiceOver Internet Protocol. But, is this new technology asefficient as its counterpart, analog telephoneservice? Since the demand for world-wide communication hasgrown, the internet has become the most popular way ofcommunicating. Although Communication via e-mailseemed to be the cheapest way to do business withthose overseas, it wasn't always the most effective. If analog phone service was always cost effective, weprobably would not have to wait for someone to opentheir inbox and hit reply. Still, verbal communicationis the best way to build strong relationships andeventually, "close the deal". VOIP service is a costeffective as e-mail and as effective as itsalternative, the analog phone service. When compared to analog phone service, VOIP is cheaperand has the same quality of service. Since VOIP uses asingle network to transfer voice and data, the overallcost per call is cheaper to the service provider thenusing two separate networks. When voice and data are transferred together on asingle network, the service providers only need tobuild and maintain one network, thus hire less staff.These companies have also learned to manage both voicetraffic and data applications correctly to reduce anysacrifice in quality. Although there is a monthly charge for the service,VOIP phones cost about the same as a regular businessphone. With all of its benefits, VOIP should take theplace of analog telephone service within a few years.
