I have written several articles concerning VoIP. I personally use a VoIP company called Broadvox, who has since merged with another VoIP company and is no longer available as Broadvox. I have used VoIP for a year now and I have to say I am still thoroughly impressed by the quality of service, low rates and enhanced calling features.
As with many people, I at first was a bit skeptical about using VoIP service. We all know there are always little quirks with new technology. Cheap calling rates for VoIP is what finally won me over, and enticed me to give it a try. In the beginning, there was no 911 service with my VoIP and it would drop calls from time to time.
Without exaggeration, VoIP has saved me around seven hundred dollars in phone service in 2005 in comparison to what I paid the previous year. Wow! Say that out loud, seven hundred dollars. Not only has the VoIP service saved me a ton of money, the quality of service has increased ten fold during the past year, including new 911 service.
One catch to VoIP is you need to have broadband Internet for VoIP to work. I had written several articles on this topic as well, and based on my own personal experiences. Fact is, the combined cost of broadband Internet such as DSL or cable broadband plus VoIP are cheaper than dial up plus traditional phone service, hands down and case closed.
What I paid for start up cost, and the very insignificant inconvenience of installing the telephone router a year ago are but a distant memory. I am very pleased with VoIP service and no longer have any use for a traditional phone line in my home. That's right, no traditional phone companies for me, ever again.
VoIP is a product I highly recommend to anyone without hesitation. VoIP is a product which once installed people enjoy emencely. No more telemarketers trying to beat your long distance rates. No more hidden fee's, taxes or expensive sir charges. As a customer of VoIP phone service I am indeed bias. In short, I love my VoIP phone service.
