The Top Ten SMB VoIP Telephone Service Providers Announced by CheapestVoIPCalls.net
(PRWEB) October 25, 2013 -- The surge of US companies swapping their office communications system from copper land-lines to Voice over Internet Protocol, or simply “VoIP”, has resulted in hundreds of VoIP service providers popping up to meet the growing demand. The cloud-based technology is cheap, Eco-friendly, and crystal clear because it compresses digital voice packets and sends them over the Internet instead of transmitting them through thousands of miles of copper land-lines.
