Choosing the Right Business Phone Solution

Selecting the Right Business Phone Solution What are the most important questions to ask a potential VolP service provider? - First make sure you can port your numbers over to them. Ask if there are any contracts to be signed. - Ask how many customers/phone lines they currently support and how often they have network outages. Check out user reviews (WhichVoip has 4000+ user reviews!) and look at provider's social media channels for outages!
