IP Telephony Consolidates Your Phone Services
By Dirk C Wallace
IP telephony, sometimes called voice over internet protocol or
VoIP, is really just a complicated way of describing a communications
system that allows you to abandon your current telephone system
and replace it with one that passes through your business’ internet
connection using much of the telephone hardware you already have,
or with a cordless phone you can purchase through a number of
consumer electronics outlets.
VoIP is becoming an inevitable choice for companies looking to
lower costs, enhance security, and streamline communication between
facilities while at the same time increasing worker productivity.
IP Telephone Saves On Phone Costs
The primary reason for migrating to VoIP is cost. Savings vary
from firm to firm, but the industry reports an average savings
of 40%. With the availability of data and voice bundles from a
single provider, IP telephony gives businesses the tools they
need to easily track expenses.
Pre-set pricing for VoIP services, with the exception of international
calls, is a huge cost savings for businesses. Extra fees for international
calls are at a considerably discounted rate compared with time
worn telephone service providers. Simple and effortless billing
means more time on worker productivity and less time wondering
if your phone company has overcharged you.
Security Features To Prevent Attacks
Unlike traditional phone services with serious security vulnerabilities,
multi-level security features such as firewalls, authentication
and encryption are in place with VoIP to prevent attacks.
These many layers of protection placed within the provider’s
networks minimize your businesses susceptibility. The layered
security approach not only prevents attacks, but in the event
of a security breach, it reduces the probability that the attack
succeeds. Peace of mind can never be underrated.
VoIP offers a simple 3 digit transfer to any supported property
or office. It does not matter if one office is in Missoula and
the other office is in New York, the call is transferred as if
they were in the same building.
Consolidate Call Answering Within One Location
It also allows businesses the ability to consolidate call answering
from a central location, thus eliminating the liability of every
office to manage their incoming calls with centralized call answering.
Call centers are taking advantage of the opportunity to hire employees
world wide. Employees may work in different time zones, giving
greater customer service benefits year round.
IP telephony gives companies looking for creative ideas on how
to streamline services and lower costs, the price, security and
ease of use to build their businesses without complication and
hassle. VoIP services are no longer intimidating technology. Companies
recognize how tomorrow’s technology can help them today.
Finally, an attractive alternative to a high cost, basic telephone
line packed in a digital cordless telephone. Who knew it could
be that easy?

Give Me Just The Computer Facts.....
Spyware is a huge pain in the derriere. It can slow down the
speed of your computer. It can cause annoying pop-up ads to appear
on your screen. It can even allow strangers access to sensitive
personal information on your computer.
There are computer spyware programs and software packages to
help keep your computer running at its best. Expensive does not
always mean better and it never hurts to do a bit of research
before making a purchase.
For as long as there have been computers and the internet, there
have been unscrupulous individuals who take advantage of the innocence
of others. Many of the games that are free to download do come
with a price.
Computer spyware is often attached to the files and you, unknowingly,
allow them access to your computer. Stop putting up with that
kind of garbage! There is software that can stop spies from monitoring
your activities.
In an ideal world no one would interfere in your personal business.
But life is not ideal nor is it fair. There are companies who
make their profits by accessing personal computers for information.
Some are seemingly harmless and only want to monitor the websites
you visit. Others are not so nice and try to hack into your personal
information for less than desirable reasons. Sometimes it can
feel hopeless but you can take the first step in preventing unwanted
software on your computer.
