Having the right business phone system has never been more important than it is now.

Telephone technology has come a long way and this year, the telephone celebrates its 140th birthday! It was on March 10, 1876 when Alexander Graham Bell first spoke to his assistant through a “telephone” devise; the “first electronic transmission of the spoken word”.

140 years later and phone technology has advanced to levels Bell would never have even imagined in his wildest dreams. These days, everyone has an iPhone or a smartphone, something that looks fancy, takes great photos, and basically does everything a computer or laptop can do. You can even make phone calls from your watch!

The problem is, with so much exciting technology in our hands, business owners often forget about taking care of the “good old” telephone – which can be the most important factor when it comes to success in the workplace. If your phone systems are not operating at 100%, you could miss out on those crucial calls from big clients.

InTouch Networks provides customized business VOIP telephone services and solutions across Canada and the United States. Haven’t heard of VoIP? You aren’t alone, although it is becoming increasingly popular, and sensible, for businesses around the world.

VoIP phone systems are Voice over Internet Protocol – they use the internet to connect phones, rather than traditional copper wiring which is used by phone companies. VoIP uses IP addresses to transfer data between callers at high speeds and is ideal for business use, particularly if you have a large number of phones operating at one time.

The biggest benefit of VoIP phone systems – cost. Rather than paying for your phone calls, you are paying for the “data” service, and making calls within that service. Your calls completely sidestep the phone company - which means no huger phone bills for international and off-peak calls.

To start using VoIP business phone system, you’ll need to:

1. Choose between self-hosted or cloud-hosted system (ask your InTouch Networks rep for their advice if you’re not sure)

2. Get a VoIP phone/s: these looks the same as regular phones, but are set up via the internet. You can buy these in bulk and have the entire office fitted out at one time, or start with buying a few for the business owners and reception desks – and expand from there.


3. Have a professional install the system and provide ongoing services and maintenance – so you don’t have to worry!

InTouch Networks provides a range of custom calling options to suit your VoIP requirements, including voice mail, call forwarding, call monitoring, conference calls, caller ID and more.

InTouch Networkshave been operating since 2002 to provide Canadian and US businesses with cost effective and innovative telephone systems, designed to assist in business success.
