VoIP Services in the Great Salt Lake Region
The massive technical leap from a one-on-one rotary phone call, to a group video-chat on hand-held devices owned by a dozen individuals spread out across the entire globe, cannot be exaggerated. And that leap came about in large part thanks to VoIP.
So What Is VoIP Anyway?
Techies love their acronyms, and "VoIP" is no exception. This abbreviation stands for "Voice Over Internet Protocol," which is just another way of describing a two-way telephone call. The difference is that instead of an analog voice signal traveling across miles of copper wires from one phone to another, a digital voice signal is broadcast far and wide on the information superhighway known as the Internet.
Yet VoIP does so much more than that. Besides enabling real-time, person-to-person conversation across small or great distances (just like the traditional telephone), it further enhances human communication by allowing the transmittal of faxes, text messages, documents, photographs, videos, and even conferenced video sessions by way of multi-directional audio-visual connections via worldwide broadband networks.
In other words, it is a far cry from how people communicated in your granddaddy’s day.
Key Business Features of 911 IT’s VoIP Services
Besides offering the benefits of a traditional analog switched telephone networks (a/k/a plain old telephone service, or “POTS”), a VoIP network from 911 IT provides the following voice and data features:
Custom caller ID
Custom on-hold music
Company directory
Voicemail to text/email
Personal assistant
Distributed calls via hunt groups
Time-of-day call routing
DND for incoming calls
And that is just a partial list. Best of all, unlike traditional PBX systems, VoIP does not require that a business disrupt the office and spend ridiculous amounts of money installing expensive wiring and hardware throughout the infrastructure. Rather, the voice-over-internet protocols can be implemented digitally on existing phones, software, mobile applications, and web pages.

I Highly Recommend 911 IT!
I use these guys for all of my business network needs, Josh is usually the rep who helps me, and I always ask for him. Every time I call, they know exactly who I am and have my file (or whatever they use to organize their customers) pulled up in front of them ready to help. They are always in a good mood when helping me - even when my needs are super difficult - and they always get the issue solved very quickly. I highly recommend 911 IT!

I Strongly and Unequivocally Recommend 911 IT for All Things IT!
911 IT really came to the rescue when all others failed. I mean ALL others failed. My wife and I thought we had lost years of pictures, videos and songs that were stored on our hard drive. Our computer pooped out one day and decided to freeze up the hard drive. Enter 911 IT! It took them a couple of days to get every bit of info from the hard drive. (See what I did there...every BIT? Bad dad joke.) We literally lost sleep thinking we were out all of those memories. I strongly and unequivocally recommend 911 IT for all things IT.

Their responsiveness is the best I've seen!
We brought in 911 IT because we were at a point in our business where we needed professional IT support. Our business had outgrown the services of our previous technology provider and we couldn\xe2\x80\x99t afford the periodic downtime we experienced with our internet and phones. We looked at a few other IT firms and went with 911 because they are truly problem solvers.

VoIP FAQs
-
QHow is a VoIP phone different from the land line phone I have now?
Because it is digital and cloud-based, the VoIP phone experience provides superior audio quality, is typically less expensive than traditional phone service, and includes features that conventional analog systems cannot match.
-
QWhat if I have multiple locations?
For a business with multiple office locations, a cloud-based hosted solution is the best way to go. Since your VoIP phones are interconnected via the Internet, all the phones on the network will function equally well, no matter where they are located.
-
QWhat is the advantage of a cloud-based phone system?
Our network of dedicated servers at secure data centers provides our customers with access to the high-tech features they desire—but without the high costs.
-
QHow much bandwidth does my business need for VoIP?
Because of the “opportunistic protocols” built into our VoIP system, low bandwidth environments do not have a significant impact on the quality of the service. More important is the quality of the connection.
-
QDoes VoIP work without an internet connection?
Because it relies on Internet Protocol (IP) to transmit and exchange digital data, the answer is No: VoIP does not work without the internet. It requires a high-speed broadband connection running at a minimum of about 100 kbps. The good news is that most broadband connections easily meet that requirement.
