We were one of the first early adopters of VoIP technology at home when we first got a secondary line using VoIP technology back in 2003. The connection quality wasn’t perfect, I guess mainly due to the 256K connection we had back then. That’s why we chose not to cancel our AT&T line and only use the VoIP phone as a secondary line. But the quality of VoIP phones has improved dramatically over the past few years and not only has call quality increased almost to the point of perfection, the features offered by many VoIP carriers easily rival those of traditional phone carriers.

The business sector which typically are early adopters of technology actually came on board late since they can’t afford less than perfect service for their business communications. But recent improvement in service as well as a breadth of features is now bringing a new wave of companies to move to VoIP. One of the leaders in the business voip market is Packet 8 which offers a combination of extremely low prices with exceptional communications capabilities. What I like about Packet 8 is that they make the switch to VoIP easy. They offer all customers the option of keeping their previous phone number and perform the transfer of your number to their system at no cost. This way your switch can be almost seamless without having to update your customers or suppliers. Another great thing about their service is that it is extremely scalable so you can add on extra lines and features as your business grows keeping your costs low while not closing the door on advanced capabilities in the future.
