At Pantera Technologies, we understand that VoIP (Voice Over IP) can be an overwhelming challenge for many business owners. We help our clients make smart decisions about their VoIP choices and how that integrates with your company’s systems. Here are a few things to consider when you are looking for a VoIP provider.
Costs & Hidden Costs
Often, attention-grabbing advertising can display one cost, while there are many hidden costs attached to that same service. Ask for those in detail and ask questions to understand those fees more. We love to help educate our clients to understand what those fees are and why they exist.
Contract Termination
Pay close attention to the contract length. Make sure you understand your termination options and any minimum contract amounts. This can be crucial to your satisfaction with a company over the long run and can save you time and heartache later on.
Support
Ask yourself what the service or company you are considering offers for technical support and a way to easily report defective equipment. We know the services we recommend and can help our clients deal with any issues that come along the way. We want to be your advocate in telecommunications to help your business succeed.
Upgrades & Changes
Technology is changing fast, and it can be difficult to determine all of your needs as your grow during your contracted service time. Before signing up for any VoIP service, ask about any upgrades available now, and how easy it is to upgrade in the future.
Mobile Access
Even if you don’t think you need it, make sure to consider your mobile needs. See what capabilities there are for mobile or remote connectivity. Also, make sure you ask and understand any costs for additional features associated with the mobile access.
Gut Check
When all of the numbers look good, your decision may come down to gut. As we tell many of our clients, trust your gut. If you have done your research, and brought in the professionals to help you make the decisions, there is something to be said for trusting your intuition.
At Pantera Technologies, we consider ourselves truly blessed to help so many fabulous companies set themselves up for success with their telecommunications services. We love guiding our clients to make the smart decisions about their options and to help them navigate an ever-changing world of technology.
