Five Reasons To Buy VoIP
by Daymon Hoag
Believe it or not, there are still a few people out there who just don't get it when it comes to VoIP. With services like Skype, or Google Talk, it is easy to confuse what a true VoIP plan really is.
Skype, Google Talk, and the like would be more accurately described as PC to phone or click to call VoIP services. A true VoIP service uses an adaptor, enabling you to make and receive calls with your home telephone. solution voip
I think it is important people know the difference between click to call and true VoIP when deciding on a VoIP plan. For all intents and purposes we will be discussing five good reasons to buy a true VoIP plan. solution voip
The biggest reason to buy a VoIP plan is also the most obvious. VoIP is tremendously cheaper on both local and long distance telephone service, plus available calling features.
Number two on our list would be the dynamic features of VoIP phone service. VoIP enables you to have a phone number outside your own area code. You can take your adaptor with you when you travel too. solution voip
Number three is the cost effective ability to add on to existing service. Lets say you want a second phone line. With VoIP there is no need to install new equipment, and in most cases this will only cost around five dollars. solution voip
Number four is what I like to call the big trade off. By switching from dial up Internet to broadband, and switching to VoIP for phone service, you are acctually getting better service for less money. solution voip
Last but certainly not least, VoIP providers do not charge hidden fee's. Hidden fee's can make up to 20% of your total monthly phone bill. The only extra fee with VoIP is a 3% federal excise tax based on usage. solution voip
In closing, when looking for a VoIP service, make sure it is true VoIP. You only need a cable broadband or DSL connection, plus an adaptor to get started. Look for a VoIP company with a money back guarantee. solution voip

VoIP Solution Providers: Opt for the best
VoIP Solution Providers: Opt for the best
by Angela Hayden
Big players in the telecommunication industry are offering advanced VoIP solutions. These solutions enable users and customers to make long distance or international calling at minimal rates. Voice over IP solutions allow a vast array of services, software and hardware to work together. Thereby, this creates flexible, feature-rich communication solutions with the add-on benefits. Voice mail, 3-way calling, caller ID, call forwarding, and call waiting are some of the specialised services that are available. Companies offering these IP solutions are known as VoIP solution providers. VoIP or voice over internet protocol offers easy transfer of images, videos and text over a single IP network that has made Internet telephony solutions all the more popular. This fact has a special significance for businesses holding global presence, for instance MNC's, call centres or contact centers. VoIP providers offer services to their customers in a more efficient manner, as the voice call process is based on the IP packet switching technique of a network.
Before availing services from the VoIP solution providers, potential users and customers need to take a thorough check on the type of services that they are offering. The requirement of the services varies from organisation to organisation. Well, the basic thing that must be considered is the call rates for different destinations; this will let the user know all the routes that provider is offering. In addition, the voice quality and the presence of multiple routes or switches with the contingency for back up routes is another factor that should be considered while opting for the voice over IP solution provider. Apart from that, the provider that offers the best services like a high speed broadband connection at required bandwidth, storing incoming calls to voice mails, sending voice mail over e-mail attachments, network integration, functionality and security of service.
In a nutshell, one should opt for a provider who offers wholesalers and retailers who offers some part of the VoIP switch to the potential users at an affordable rate. Moreover, the provider must operate their customer services around the clock. These are the key qualities that increases the output and expand the business arena, if you are planning to venture into the VoIP solution platform.

Depending upon the services and geographical constrain, ISPs are defined as local and national. A national ISP provides access to most part of the nation, while a local ISP offers the service to limited geographical regions. Connecting to Internet requires a telephone line to dial-up an ISP using a computer and modem. The work of an ISP is to provide efficient route onto the Internet for connecting with the world. The ISP uses IP packet switching technique of the network for transferring the voice, video and data.
ISPs' are the Internet access providers while VoIP providers deliver superior voice quality to Next Generation carriers, businesses and individual users.

VoIP Patented Technology
VoIP Patented Technology
VoIP is an acronym for voice over internet protocol. A VoIP, in essence, is a computer phone that allows you to make phone calls from your computer to anyone in the world, e.g., PC to PC, PC to landlines, or PC to cell phones. The voice signal converts to data packets and travels across the internet through a VoIP platform, and then converts back to voice at the receiving end of the communication exchange. There is no delay in conversations / communications with 3WTel VoIP. Leading telecom experts are projecting that 75% of the world's communications will be done on VoIP within the next several years. What Kind of Equipment do I need?
You will need a computer with internet access and an inexpensive microphone if your computer does not have one built in. Although most VoIP providers require high speed internet connections, 3WTel offers VoIP on dial-up, DSL, and broadband connections. How Can I Place Calls or Receive Calls?
Basically, the same way you would a regular phone, except on your PC. When you download a VoIP line on your computer, a phone usually appears on your screen. The computer phone acts like any other phone in that you can dial numbers on it from a pad, or click on a contact's pre-programmed name, and press the call button. You will then hear the phone ringing to the party you have called and can talk to them when they accept the call, or leave a voicemail if they are not available. When receiving a call, the phone will ring on your computer and you can click to accept the call and talk, or let it ring (based on the number of rings you have set up) and forward the caller to your voicemail.
What Kind of Features Does VoIP Have?
Typically a VoIP has voicemail with audio capabilities, three-way calling, text messaging, and contacts list. Some VoIP's even have webcam capabilities. In addition, there is usually a button to click that can indicate to others when you are available, unavailable, away, or off line. (3WTel has all these features and many more, including real time call duration, missed call indicator, network quality meter, call waiting, do not disturb, hold, mute, etc.) Who Can I Call?
Most reputable VoIP solutions providers limit PC to PC calls among their own subscribers for privacy purposes and so that the quality of sound is not compromised. (3WTel's patented technology is available only between their own subscribers for both privacy purposes and their uncompromised quality of sound.) Some VoIP providers require limiting PC to landlines or cell phones to their own subscribers. (3WTel does not limit PC to landlines or cell phones to their own subscribers.)
Advantages of VoIP
With VoIP, you have unlimited talk time to anyone in the world from PC to PC for a flat monthly rate ($5/month with 3WTel) Most VoIP's offer drastically reduced costs for calling PC to landlines (3.9¢ per minute in 200 countries with 3WTel) Most VoIP's offer reduced costs for calling PC to cell phones, however, prices vary depending on the cell phone carrier. (3WTel offers drastically reduced costs for calls from PC to cell phones and will let you know the cost before you place the call.) Savings of up to 80% off current phone bills. (This is a given with 3WTel.) What are the Costs for VoIP's? Typically there is an enrollment fee which varies between $20.00 to hundreds of dollars (3WTel is $19.95) Monthly fees, after enrollment, varies between $5.00 per month to $75.00 per month (3WTel is $5.00 per month) If you do not have a microphone on your computer, you would have to purchase one. Cost is between $5.00 to $40.00. Things to Watch Out for with VoIP Solution Providers
Hidden costs (there are none with 3WTel). Unsecure lines - meaning anyone can listen to your conversation because of shared servers or open platforms (3WTel has only secure lines that are on their own server, their own platform, encrypted, and their technology is patented) Inability to be used with dial-up connections (3WTel VoIP can be used with dial-up connections) Public listing of your name and/or phone number (3WTel subscriber names and numbers are confidential and not posted publicly)
