The introduction of VoIP transformed businesses everywhere. With VoIP, individuals can get more work done more efficiently by better managing their time, allowing for focus to other areas of business. Owner of GetVoIP.com, Reuben Yonatan, recently blogged on TMC about how the increased adoption of VoIP service is providing a long-awaited restoration of balance to both home and office life.

“The exciting new features of Voice over Internet Protocol for business allow you to digitize, customize, and optimize your telephony experience,” Yonatan says. For example, with VoIP SIP phones, call forwarding – a relatively straightforward function –makes setting up a phone to reach you and not just call a number easier than ever.

Another common feature concerning VoIP is ‘find me/follow me,’ which is the process of “having separate numbers for your office, cell phone, and home office [where] you have one ‘virtual extension,’” Yonatan explains. “You can program the virtual number to ring all of your phones simultaneously, or in order, and how to handle a missed call.” You can even decide if you want a call to go to voice mail or directly to someone else’s extension. This added control allows for increased flexibility and productivity on your end. This virtual extension also applies to outgoing calls. “When you make a call using your VoIP service, the receiving caller ID will show your number, regardless of which device you’re calling from.”

In a nutshell, VoIP phone services make it easier for you to communicate with others – both within your own company and to existing and potential clients, Yonatan says. “Nearly every business VoIP provider provides unlimited nationwide minutes and dozens of call features, but that’s just the beginning—the real value of VoIP is the services you simply can’t get with traditional telephony,” he adds.
