VoIP Safe For Emergency Situations

According to a new regulation passed by Ofcom, all U.K. based VoIP providers catering to residentials and online voice networks are required to provide 999 emergency functionality to their clients. Most of the major players of VoIP service industry already have this functionality as part of their service. However this stringent move on the part of Ofcom will ensure that this essential service will be a part of the features provided by all the VoIP service providers.

This move is definitely a great way to ensure that in times of emergency no mishap takes place due to unavailability of 999 VoIP emergency access. Additionally it will make VoIP telephony service more reliable and a secure way to connect.

For months now emergency access through voice over IP service has been an issue of concern. Reason being that VoIP telephony service does not provide an area dependent phone number. As a result when a voice over IP user tries to call the emergency number the assistant at the other end at times is unable to figure out the location from where the call is being made.

With this regulation on IP telephony this scenario is likely to change ensuring a safe and dependable voice over IP solution to the users.

On A Marathon With VoIP- Continued

Continuing with one of my previous blogs titled “On a marathon with VoIP” I will try to list another business opportunity that one can take advantage of for increasing their revenue generation( read- $$$$'s !)

Elaborating on the above mentioned blog, ideally an internet service provider, system integrators, hardware & software product manufacturers, call shop owners, calling card companies among a host of others can provide VoIP service in a creative way to earn big moolah.

For instance, if you are dealing with calling cards or if you are an internet telephony service provider then the best option would be to provide bundle up services with voice over IP i.e. by unifying your existing service with VoIP call termination facility.

This will give you two fold advantage. By providing a bundle up service you will be able to attract customers since you will be offering them the convenience to take care of just a single bill at the end of the month( who prefers to maintain a track record of numberless bills..i don't!). Additionally your product line and profit margin will increase without making any substantial investment( as mentioned previously, the service provider owns and maintains the entire infrastructure and the technical equipments needed to transmit the call).

Let your creative spirit drive while you sit in the super fast VoIP jalopy and see yourself win the race!
