FAQ VoIP Telephone Systems

A VoIP (Voice over Internet Protocol) telephone system is a type of phone system that uses the internet to make and receive phone calls, instead of traditional telephone lines. A VoIP system converts the analog audio signal of a telephone call into a digital signal that can be transmitted over the internet. This allows businesses to make and receive phone calls using their existing internet connection, rather than having to pay for separate telephone lines. VoIP telephone systems offer a range of features such as call forwarding, voicemail, and conference calls, and can be integrated with other business tools such as CRM and email.
