To help uncover the top five myths keeping companies from making the switch away from their old phone systems, business VoIP provider Nextiva offers a new white paper, “5 Myths that Keep Small Business Hooked on Old Phone Systems.”

 

From myths regarding minimal cost savings, to inferior call quality and the technology being only for those who are more technologically inclined – the reality is that VoIP is a highly beneficial communications solution for small businesses.

 

One misconception in particular – that set-up and management is too costly and difficult - make’s Nextiva’s top five list.

 

Business VoIP phone systems are actually the easiest to set-up and manage because there is no on-site management necessary and businesses can use their existing phones and PBX to attain integrated services.
