Why Your Business Should Switch to a Virtual Office Phone Service

Posted by Aimee Eucce on Aug 27, 2014

As a business owner, it’s important that you invest in your business infrastructure. One of the first things a business owner implements within a new office space is their phone service. However this topic brings forth a host of questions; do you purchase, or lease a hard wired phone system, do you need an on-site PBX, or do you utilize the power of the Internet, and get a virtual office phone service. Most small businesses do not have the human manpower to continually maintain and upgrade an in-house wired phone solution. Fortunately, there is an alternative solution. Small businesses can take advantage of a cloud based hosted phone solution that can make their business look, and sound like a fortune 500 business without the overhead cost of an on-premise phone system.

Great Moments in VoIP History: How “call for free” came to be

Posted by Ian LeWinter on Aug 14, 2014

My stepfather, Bob, is 89 years old. To get your brain around what it means to be 89, consider this: As a young adult, he was one of the brave soldiers who landed in the D-Day invasion at Normandy.

He is literally a part of history. He’s also an “early adopter.” Which is why he was the first person — way back in the 1990s — from whom I’d ever heard the term “VoIP.”

Posted by Ian LeWinter on Aug 07, 2014

Everyone loves to get something for free. We’ll even pay to get it. “Spend $75 today and get a free gift!” It doesn’t even matter what it is. It could be free shipping or a free piggy bank. I was once the happy recipient of a plastic dog food cap. Often freebies are things we’ll never use. But we can all use free phone calls! And that’s just one of the features to expect when choosing a mobile VoIP app.
