TeleVoIPs Frequently Asked Questions

VoIP Basics

 

How is VoIP different from my traditional phone provider?

VoIP (Voice over Internet Protocol) routes your phone service through your internet rather than copper wires like traditional providers. This means VoIP service is more cost effective and offers significanatly wider selection of business features than traditional phone service does.

How fast does my Internet have to be?

TeleVoIPs can accommodate just about any and every high-speed internet provider.

What is a “cloud-based platform”?

The TeleVoIPs cloud is the software that runs in our data centers using the internet. Essentially, it’s virtual storage and phone service.

How secure is VoIP?

Our VoIP phones are password protected, and the server which provides your TeleVoIPs uses a firewall to grant or deny access by IP address. Our service is HIPPA compliant and VoIP gives users the option to encrypt entire conversations if needed.

TeleVoIPs Plan Basics

 

How many lines and numbers can I have?

TeleVoIPs service means you can purchase an unlimited number of lines, numbers, and extensions.

Never. You’re welcome to use our service on a month-to-month basis, and if you love us, an annual contract will allow you even lower per-extension pricing.

Can I keep my current business phone number?

Absolutely. We can make just about any number TeleVoIPs friendly.

What happens if I lose internet or electricity?
