It makes use of a widespread infrastructure that is already laid down called the Internet.<\/p><p>ToIP focuses more on providing communication solutions for businesses instead of consumers (WhatsApp, Skype, and Instagram are all customer-centered). ToIP provides additional advanced features like call management, IVR-interactive voice response, integration with CRM, and call routing to match the needs of any business in the UK.<br \/>To explain it further, ToIP is designed to blend in and work with other components of a business\u2019s software.

If you have more than one user, the cost per person will keep multiplying.<\/p><p>ToIP involves utilising IP phones and other additional hardware. In the UK, IP phones can cost you \u00a320, and they can go up to \u00a3400. Moreover, there are also other expenses for PBX systems and installation costs.

To help you make the decision, we have explained the needs for small and medium to large businesses so you can get a better outlook.<\/p><ul><li><strong>For small businesses:<br \/><\/strong><br \/>If you\u2019re running a startup, VoIP is often the smarter choice. Because it\u2019s cost-saving and incredibly flexible. As your business grows, VoIP allows you to scale with time so there\u2019s no pressure to switch.<br \/><p>VoIP is also perfect for businesses with remote teams. Take, for instance, a freelance graphic designer in Brighton working with your clients across Europe. With VoIP, they can handle international calls, thanks to VoIP numbers, without worrying about exorbitant charges. Plus, the setup is so simple that they can get started in a matter of minutes.<\/p><\/li><li><strong>For medium to large enterprises:<br \/><\/strong><br \/>Think about a nationwide retail chain with customer service centres in London, Birmingham, and Glasgow. Handling high call volumes, routing queries to the right departments, and ensuring seamless integration with customer management systems is no small feat. This is where ToIP shines.<p>With ToIP, your large enterprise gains access to features like Interactive Voice Response (IVR), call queue management, and CRM integration. Think about the betterment in the customer service &#8211; a customer calling to check on their order. Instead of being bounced around between agents, they\u2019re greeted with an automated menu that directs them to the right person.<\/p><\/li><\/ul>\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t<section class=\"elementor-section elementor-top-section elementor-element elementor-element-46073ce elementor-section-boxed elementor-section-height-default elementor-section-height-default\" data-id=\"46073ce\" data-element_type=\"section\" data-settings=\"{&quot;_ha_eqh_enable&quot;:false}\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-container elementor-column-gap-default\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-column elementor-col-100 elementor-top-column elementor-element elementor-element-7e9ad73\" data-id=\"7e9ad73\" data-element_type=\"column\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-wrap elementor-element-populated\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-77f3489 elementor-widget elementor-widget-heading\" data-id=\"77f3489\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"heading.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t<h2 class=\"elementor-heading-title elementor-size-default\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"getting_a_reliable_scalable_voip_system_for_your_small_business_is_easy_with_comparedbusiness\"><\/span>Getting A Reliable &amp; Scalable VoIP System For Your Small Business Is Easy With ComparedBusiness<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-2b50ce4 elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"2b50ce4\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p>At ComparedBusiness, we streamline the process of linking businesses like yours with VoIP service providers.
