Voice over Internet Protocol (VoIP) technology refers to a series of transmission capabilities that make communication over the Internet a possibility. VoIP, colloquially known as Internet telephony, converts voice vibrations to compressed digital signals that translate to Internet Protocol (IP) packets. These IP packets are then transmitted and converted to a regular telephone signal if the user has a regular telephone. In essence, VoIP allows computer users and businesses to make telephone calls from a desktop computer equipped with a VoIP phone. Internet telephony offers services and benefits unparalleled by traditional phones. You can cut the cord with traditional phone companies. Saving your business up to 50% on phone bills.

It also enables the user to integrate software programs, such as e-mail, e-fax, and remote conferencing over the Internet via the telephone. In other words, a VoIP user can speak to somebody over the phone while accessing other applications, including the Internet simultaneously. VoIP users can take their adapters anywhere, making it possible to hold telephone conversations at venues that offer an Internet connection. An increase in mobility assists individuals who are always on the move, especially corporate employees who are required to travel.
