Global Value Connect Expands VoIP Offerings

March 08, 2005 (PRLEAP.COM) Business News
Recognizing the growth of Voice over Internet protocol (VoIP) services, Global Value Connect has expanded its VoIP products and services ( http://www.globalvalueconnect.com/VoIP.htm ). "We know there is a demand for people wanting an alternative to the traditional telephone company and the pricing structure the traditional telephone company offers," Raymond Klesc, President and CEO.

In 10 years' time, VoIP will be the standard. According to recent research by the Yankee Group, an estimated 10 million people will rely on VoIP by the end of 2007. Ford Motor Co. recently spent $100 million to install and manage 50,000 VoIP phones. Why? Huge cost savings and the flexibility afforded by VoIP technology. Ford clearly saw the future and wanted to be there before anyone else. (Ford is onto something the rest of us should be soon.)

The much-touted benefit to VoIP is cost savings. Long-distance costs are virtually nil using the Internet backbone. The cost of a call to Europe is far less than a penny per minute for a VoIP provider. Hence, the savings passed on to the customer are potentially huge. For global businesses, calls are routed through the companywide area network, saving greatly on inter-office telephone calls. That's in addition to the efficiencies of the same lines being utilized for both voice and data traffic.

VoIP is also more effective and flexible. E-mails and voice mails can all be stored in one "in box" on your computer. With the click of a mouse, all communications - voice, fax and data - are ready to be addressed.

What awaits are such features as advanced find-me-follow-me technology that will allow users to direct voice mails to PDAs as e-mails, text messages, etc. Mobility will be tied to a user's identity, not to a particular device - we will be able to communicate anywhere there is a data connection using the same telephone number. Your telephone number will soon be more like a Hotmail or Yahoo e-mail address rather than fixed to a street address or a particular cell phone.

VoIP technology has been greatly improved, and, with almost every business in America hooked up with high-speed access, VoIP is poised for a takeover.

Global Value Connect now offers four different VoIP providers with a range of prices and services to appeal toy size business or residential user. Check out our line of VoIP services at http://www.globalvalueconnect.com/VoIP.htm

About Voice over IP (VoIP)
To place calls via the Internet, customers first need to have a high-speed speed connection, often in the form of digital cable or digital subscriber lines, known as DSL. With it, the often lower-priced VOIP services provide unlimited local and long-distance service across the country using the Internet. The technology also allows customers to check voicemails using e-mail, among other services. Simply put, VoIP turns your voice into packets of digital data, which are then sent over a network in the same way as e-mail, streaming music and streaming video. All a user needs is a computer with at least 128K of broadband connectivity and some additional hardware/software, and that user can communicate with VoIP.
