Business VOIP - Innovative solutions. Industry leading costs

Approximately three years ago, a new business VoIP service was launched by iCallGlobe, a communications company having business interests in several areas of the globe. The successful implementation of the "corporate business solution" has been behind the growth and diversification of many businesses across different geographical domains.

This and other similar launches have clouded the telecommunications landscape and have enhanced the recall value of the term - “business VOIP.” Corporate and business users are increasingly managing and routing their calls through high speed Internet connections and PBX systems are almost done away with.

VoIP call termination services, designed for business users, are now available at industry leading prices. As a matter of fact, the cost of making calls using business VoIP solutions is significantly less as compared to traditional phone systems. Some specific business VoIP solutions come with additional features such as voicemail, caller ID display, call waiting, call transfer, address books and number blocking. All these features make the business VoIP solutions more capable of taking on the challenges of the volatile business world.

Business users could make international calls and connect with branch offices located in different parts of the globe at nominal costs. One could even go to the extent of running virtual offices - thanks to some of the more innovative business VoIP solutions.

It can be said that with the current genre of business VOIP solutions, the geographical barriers and boundaries loose their meaning, making the world an even smaller place.

Mobile VOIP

VoIP (Voice over Internet Protocol) is a definite improvement over traditional communication networks. In VoIP networks, both voice and data communications are combined in a single network. VoIP Mobile or 'Mobile Voice over Internet Protocol' is the application of VoIP (Voice over Internet Protocol) technology to mobile handsets. If mobile phones are a boon for users, Mobile VoIP goes one step further. It not only facilitates the way in which a person can communicate with another but also ensures faster, effective and accurate exchange of information in the modern day world.

To enable Mobile VoIP, one would need a mobile phone handset that supports high speed IP communication. Mobile handset manufacturers are giving adequate thought to the design and development of innovative handsets that could be used to enjoy specialised VoIP services. For one, these innovative handsets would have more powerful processors. One could use many of the latest smart phones for high speed web access, sending and receiving emails, as well as for viewing engrossing TV output.

Apart from the device, one would need a client software, a wireless network and a VoIP service for enabling mobile VoIP. A potential user could go for Voice over Wi-fi, which is more often than not, delivered free of cost. One could also opt for high speed services through EVDO rev A or HSPDA technology – the better audio qualities and metropolitan coverage would compensate for the price one would typically have to pay for these specialised services.

There is a rising demand for Mobile VOIP and facilitators from different spheres are doing all that it takes to cater to this demand. The industry for Mobile VoIP is still in the nascent stage but if the current trends are anything to go by, the growth rates are expected to be phenomenal in the near future.

MySpace Joins Hands With Skype

I'm quiet fascinated by the way different social networking communities have quickly caught on with internet users from world wide. From Orkut to Facebook to MySpace, there seems to be endless communities online and more keep popping up. All of them are vying for the same target audience and so the competition is fast gearing up.

The latest news is that MySpace, an online social media networking community, has merged with Skype to provide its users with a different way to communicate.

Over 110 million registered users of MySpace will be able to easily call each other through the application embedded in their website through Skype. To make this service more appealing and attractive, users will also be able to add their photographs or animated pictures as MySpace 'avtars'.

Clients will neither have to download Skype nor will require a Skype account. They will be able to call other users through MySpace IM. This service is supposed to be launched in 20 countries by November.

This step by MySpace might help it in giving a competitive edge over its rival websites like facebook which have been fast climbing the popularity charts.

Seems like VoIP is out there to help one and all! ( For those who don't know, Skype uses VoIP call termination service to make free PC to PC and PC to Phone calls)
