In the new normal of hybrid work, many companies experienced difficulties keeping their employees connected. Best practices entail having an outbound call management solution in place such as VoIP to avoid these complications.

These systems are called cloud PBXes and they enable the management of voice communications from a central web console no matter how many extensions you've got, where your employees are located, or even what devices they're using. VoIP systems provide many features such as video conferencing and team collaboration, both of which are crucial in a time of crisis. VoIP solutions have the added benefit of being more cost-effective than old-fashioned on-premises PBX systems.

Hybrid work may not be the best solution for all business, so it is important to carefully evaluate your organization's specific needs. One area of concern will be voice communications services once employees return to the office. VoIP sets need to have the ability to connect with a call center for sales and customer service, while also connecting through other communication channels such as conference calls, fax machines, mobile communications including text messaging and video conferencing.

In particular, they are often required to offer more advanced functionality through software, such as shared meeting collaboration and voicemail to email transcription. They also need to have the ability for calls and texts with both people on the same network (wireless or landline) and outside parties via public switched telephone network (PSTN).

Compliance requirements

Modern phone systems encompass a wide array of tools and channels, which means they are often referred to as Unified Communications-as-a-Service (UCaaS). VoIP systems are usually cloud-based, including at least one software client to accommodate them on web, desktop, and mobile platforms. Residential VoIP services come with features that cannot be accomplished through a conventional phone system.

One of VoIP's major advantages is how flexible it is for a number of different environments. We offer service across a large range of environments, from analog desk phones to softphones available on your cell phone. These systems usually integrate softphone clients with other back-office applications like customer relationship management or help desk platforms.

Imagine the interface of such an app suddenly includes a dial pad and some function buttons, like having a pop-up screen. These cloud-based systems have many different phone numbers located in global locations., so that customers can use your phone for free or at a minimal cost.

Choosing the best VoIP system can be difficult, but it’s important to know what your needs are.

Determining the right phone system for your business will depend on the type of work you do and how often you collaborate with clients.Your phone system is complicated, and not all devices are VoIP compatible. It’s best to determine which devices you will need or replace before you buy your first VoIP device. If you cannot afford a full replacement, some parts of your phone system probably can be converted to softphones or desktop VoIP handsets.

So What Is VoIP, Exactly?

VoIP is a way of digitalizing and transmitting voice signals over an IP connection. To make analog voice information understandable, this is encoded using software called a codec. Changing these digital signals back to an appropriate signal that can be understood uses another piece of software, a codec.

For a VoIP service to work, it needs some means of routing calls between users or to the outside world. In cloud-based solution, this is handled by virtual PBX. This would be managed in the cloud by your VoIP provider Call Cowboy.

Although service providers resell the individual PBX to each customer, they use a multi-tenant segmentation system that ensures your PBX appears dedicated to you. This engine parks and routes calls on your VoIP network and others.

Many businesses still require routing calls to the PSTN. This may take a hybrid PBX or a PSTN gateway at your office. It is common for small businesses to use a PBX (Private Branch Exchange)--a network-enabled telephone system--to connect their offices. Call Cowboy will let you know if this is necessary at the planning stage, and note that these days, a PBX looks like any other server in your office building, except with an attached means of handling analog.

On the other hand, many businesses may try to avoid any on-premises PBX components. That's because more and more users are taking advantage of the cost savings that all-cloud systems bring, as well as their enhanced capabilities. Some virtual PBXes, for example, can handle PSTN connectivity without any hardware requirements. Contact Call Cowboy today for a consultation.

The Benefits of UCaaS for Your Business

If you're looking for a high level of flexibility, scalability and integration, PBX systems are currently your best option. Software engineers are now able to turn your phone into an app. Which has led us to the fast-changing UCaaS paradigm mentioned above. Here, VoIP providers provide additional software capabilities that can be managed all from a single unified console.

UCaaS solutions may differ greatly, but most include features like video conferencing, shared meeting and online collaboration tools, faxing via email integration, and device-independent softphone clients. The most important thing to remember is that the software replicates all the functionality of a corporate phone on your personal smartphone or company laptop. It includes answering calls coming into your business number and from employees' extensions.

Softphones are often the heart of many UCaaS instances, and for VoIP buyers they're becoming the primary use case. This can sometimes completely replace the need for a physical handset. These can be easily accessed from laptops, PC's, and cell phones. Call center employees often use the softphone as a way to stay connected because it's an essential tool in communicating with clients with interfacing with their CRM.

For example, a softphone will combine a telephone conversation with text chat and screen sharing, which means participants in the call can seamlessly add more participants, handle private text chats during the call, and extend to collaboration session where screens are shared. Companies can use CRM technology to integrate with their call center. This allows for common points of data entry and organization between different systems, including customer information, phone numbers or account numbers.

UCaaS is a constantly evolving service providing cloud-based communication and collaboration services. Those capabilities can also get tweaked to provide new benefits, sometimes on a general level, like the real estate industry for example.

That rich feature fabric can change radically between vendors, however. For example, RingCentral's softphone offers a long list of app integrations and features, including not just collaboration platforms, but bi-directional email and scheduling among other things. Line2's softphone client, on the other hand, is specifically designed to be simple so users can pick it up quickly, and it does this by mostly mirroring the buttons you'd find on a standard desktop handset. Two ends of the spectrum, but that means you need to be very careful when testing these apps to make sure you're getting not only what you need but in the right way for how your company does work.

As the UCaaS market matures to 2024, you will see it expanding far beyond phone service, which means new and different offerings for customers in the form of desktop as a service. While many companies may offer services like these, they are more popular among hybrid workers who take advantage of a fully managed corporate desktop that can be access virtually from anywhere and any device. Desktop as a Service (DaaS) is like Voice over IP, which lets IT professionals manage those desktops from a web console. This makes deploying new desktops and removing unneeded ones super simple.

What Is SIP?

VoIP is possible because of the Session Initiation Protocol (SIP).This is a text-based protocol similar to HTML. It's used for setting up and controlling phone calls in most VoIP systems. Whenever you are considering any connection hardware, you’ll encounter SIP references almost every time.

What makes SIP popular is not only that it's deep and flexible, but that it was purpose-built to engage in multimedia communication over TCP/IP networks. For VoIP calls, SIP can set up a call using IP-related protocols. These include the Stream Control Transmission Protocol (SCTP), the Transmission Control Protocol (TCP), and the User Datagram Protocol (UDP).

One use of the IAX protocol is for call setup (initiating a call at the target endpoint). This includes session control, location identifying passed to and from endpoints, and more. SIP is a text-based protocol, but it's still comparatively simple because of the request/response nature and HTTP-like syntax. However, it is still capable of handling the most complex operations performed by enterprises grade PBXes.

Understanding VoIP and SIP is important, but setting these systems up requires other know-how. For voice quality, your network needs to meet certain minimum data requirements. Additionally, you will need to meet a minimum latency requirement (the time between when a signal leaves remote computer and your system receives it), typically measured in milliseconds. If you're going to be making a lot of calls, you'll need a business-quality internet connection.

How to Optimize Your Internet for VoIP

VoIP solutions typically depend on a steady and consistent internet connection at all your office locations. One of the most important features in a business phone system is access to high-speed, reliable internet. Talk with your ISP about their service to make sure your company has enough bandwidth and reliability for you needs. This should be a dedicated link through a dedicated router in order to achieve professional telephony with reliable sound quality. It's critical that a router has the ability to create virtual LANs and also encrypt your voice connections.

Systems requiring a high level of security, such as those that need to be compliant to industry guidelines or government regulations, may not be able to use current internet connections. The internet does not guarantee a quality of service, nor is there any way to control the bandwidth that it provides. Congestion can interrupt conference calls and even disrupt your business in cases where a DNS hijack occurs.

If you fall into this category, then know that VoIP can bypass the internet by running over other networking protocols like IP. You can get all the benefits of our UCaaS software by running your voice network over dedicated lines. It'll cost more, but you'll also have crystal clear voice quality and enhanced data security.
