To the Moon with SIP Trunking

New technology is inevitably preceded by and launched to massive hype, but it doesn’t always live up to it. Many times we are promised the moon only to fall short before we’ve even escaped the atmosphere. However, SIP Trunking is truly a big leap forward for humankind in terms of communications. That is a big claim and so it is only proper that some evidence be given in support of it. This technology is capable of many great feats, including increased flexibility to provide support for remote and mobile employees and geographic independence to offer a local presence in dozens of international cities. Whatever praise is given to this solution, it is justly deserved as it goes far beyond expectations.

A big part of what makes this technology so great is that it reduces the complexity of managing services. Traditionally, with conventional telephone service, an organization had to juggle two or more services, each with its own provider. However, the ability to put voice and data on one network with IP solutions simplifies things considerably. There’s only one service provider in such a setup, which means one bill and one point of contact. SIP Trunking also offers consistent pricing from month to month so that there are no unexpected budget-wrecking surprises. The simplicity and budget-balancing mean that small businesses as well as large enterprises can take advantage of this solution. It’s a rare product that can reduce both costs and complexity, while also delivering the advances of a next generation communications solution.

So we’ve established that this solution is affordable, but just what kind of savings can a business expect to see? There will naturally be some variation depending on the circumstances, but an organization could see savings of fifty percent from what it previously paid for traditional telephone service. That’s a substantial amount and likely to play an important role in the decision of selecting a new phone system. These savings are made possible by the previously mentioned convergence of voice and data, as well as the removal of certain components of traditional phone systems, such as Basic Rate Interfaces, Primary Rate Interfaces, and PSTN gateways. Along with the elimination of costly elements, the time and expense of conducting maintenance and administration is also reduced.

With every new development comes a battle between the hype and the reality. It’s all too common to get your hopes up only to be disappointed by the final product. That’s not the case with SIP Trunking, which can indeed meet all of your star-filled dreams with its next generation capabilities and take you all the way to the moon and beyond.
