What Is a Cloud - VoIP Phone System?
A Cloud - VoIP phone system refers to a phone system that lets you make voice calls using an internet connection as opposed to transmitting voice signals over a traditional digital / analog phone lines. With a Cloud - VoIP phone system, you can call someone else that has the same service or anyone else that has a phone number. That includes long-distance phone numbers, mobile numbers, and international numbers. Cloud - VoIP phone systems also work with traditional phones that are connected to the internet, provided you have a specific setup.
VoIP call quality is the clarity and responsiveness of voice calls made through internet packet delivery. Many factors have a bearing on VoIP quality because of the nature of data delivery via the internet.
