Life Delights

If like the rest of us you’re looking how you can cut costs now the credit crunch is hitting our pockets, then a new mobile VoIP app from one of the mobile VoIP operators such as Truphone, JahJah or Fring could be the answer. Many offices around the country have already made the switch to Voice over IP to take advantage of a dramatically cheaper way to make phone calls. Now the technology has been developed so you can take advantage of VoIP through your cell phone. Not only is this much more convenient than using a landline but it also has the potential to save your business a huge amount of money. Mobile phone bills represent a significant cost for most businesses especially when the nature of that business involves calling overseas.

One issue with mobile VoIP in recent times has been a lack of clear sound or problem with latency where a noticeable gap in the sound was audible when speaking to someone. However with the introduction of better audio codec’s these problems seem all but gone. Then there was the problem with the mobile VoIP client being very difficult to use with a certain degree of technical know how needed in order to be able to make it function correctly. Finally there was also an issue with what mobile handsets worked with the mobile VoIP software. All these draw backs combined made mobile VoIP quite an unappealing prospect.

It certainly seems like those days are well and truly a thing of yesterday with mobile VoIP clients such as Fring and JahJah now operating with a huge array of popular mobile phones, including the iPhone and the BlackBerry - the obligatory mobile device in business. As well as this they are easy to install, working seamlessly with your existing address book. For these reasons there is little excuse not to have a mobile VoIP client installed on your mobile phone not least because they are free to download and install. I have certainly made huge savings on making international phone calls
