Getting Beyond the Hype of VoIP Service!
East Brunswick, NJ (ContentDesk) March 15, 2006 --
Making phone calls over the Internet or VoIP (Voice Over Internet Protocol) has been around for 9 years. During this time, billions have been spent upgrading networks, purchasing equipment and advertising VoIP service.
There are magazines like Telephony Magazine or Internet Telephony that focus on VoIP; the Wall Street Journal has covered 911 issues with VoIP and the FCC passed regulations around VoIP. Companies such as Vonage have sprouted up selling low cost phone service that offer unlimited national calling plans for under $25, cable companies offer VoIP, even traditional telecommunications companies like AT&T and Verizon offer VoIP.
VoIP is changing the way the telecommunications companies operate, changing and threatening their business models. With all of the money spent on equipment, the publicity, the regulations and the change, currently there are less than 5 million VoIP customers in the United States.
Is it all just hype? There is no doubt that VoIP is changing or will change the way people make phone calls. The Spring VON (Voice Over Net) 2006 conference will be taking place from March 14 - 17 at the San Jose McEnery Convention Center in San Jose, CA. A leading industry event for VoIP, VON brings together all the players in the converging communications landscape to map out the future. Three BusinessEdge Solutions experts will be speaking at this event.
BusinessEdge Solutions Inc. is an industry-focused business and technology-consulting firm offering strategy, process optimization and solution integration to clients in the communications, media and content (CMC) industry. Bruno Codispoti, Principal Consultant, will be talking about applications that will drive IP use in the future, which companies will likely adopt such capabilities and whether current carriers survive or will this breed a new elite service provider?
His session is titled "So you can spell VoIP, now what?" Jonathan Taplin, Communications, Media and Content Specialist, will be presenting "Collaborating on Collaboration." Taplin will discus how VoIP lays the groundwork in most organizations for a new paradigm in communications, yet this is just the first step, not the end game. He will talk about other collaboration technologies and applications that will be needed to make enterprises truly collaborative.
Finally, Lov Kher, Senior VoIP Consultant, will be leading the panel titled, "VoIP Technology for Emergency Services." This panel will answer such questions as when can new deployments impact the end user and does it match the regulatory requirements.
