IP Network Service Providers


Technically, a free Internet Phone (IP) network service provider (NSP) isn't always free because these Internet Phone services require a high-speed Internet connection and, in many cases, additional handphone converter equipment. However, when compared to traditional landline phone services, an Internet protocol phone may save your business costs, especially if you make a significant number of international calls.

Usually what makes certain VoIP (Voice over Internet Protocol) phone companies classify their services as "free" is proprietary software marketed as freeware. To be classified as "freeware," the VoIP software must be fully functional for an unlimited period of time with no cost to the user.

Before selecting "free" or low cost VoIP network service providers, your criteria may include:
  1. Besides freeware, do certain VoIP NSPs offer enhanced services at no extra cost, including voicemail and caller ID?
  2. Are there hidden fees for additional network telephony services?
  3. Is the sound quality of free IP phone calls equivalent or better than landline phone calls?
  4. How easy is it to install the freeware, and is the software's user graphic interface intuitive?
  5. Does the free IP network provider offer a connectivity option to hardphones as well as via headphones and microphone?
