Upgrade analog to VoIP to save costs

Do you want to use VoIP voice technology to reduce telephone charges and take advantage of ADSL transmission but do not want to leave the analog PBX unexpired? Service to upgrade analog switchboard from IP to IP can be considered an appropriate solution.

VoIP is no longer new to many Vietnamese businesses when the benefits of this technology are increasingly evident. VoIP allows the combination of sending data, voice and video in a single line according to the Internet Protocol (IP - Internet Protocol).

Call quality with VoIP technology is not inferior to traditional voice technology. The use of VoIP devices is also easy and convenient for users with many applications.

In the context of increasing bandwidth of international Internet access to Vietnam, many ADSL service providers are born with low cost, along with many VoIP service providers, prepaid cards like VDC, VNGT, OCI, SPT ., VoIP technology is therefore increasingly showing its own advantages.

However, many Vietnamese businesses are still using internal analog switchboards and do not want to upgrade to IP phone systems because of the costly and time-consuming worries of new technologies.

This is understandable, as the costs for digital switchboards and terminals such as IP phones are not cheap. However, there is a new application: exploiting VoIP on the old technology.

Mr. Dang Si Thuong - Deputy Director of Viet Phat Tien Co., Ltd. (VPT) explained: ' For companies that already have an internal analog switchboard system with their mobile phones, they just need to buy more. an adapter has been able to deploy international phone calls with IP technology at lower cost and deploy a free enterprise internal calling system . '

VUS and NutiFood are two of many companies that have implemented this model. Mr. Thuong added, VPT also provides other flexible solutions depending on the application status of many branches, such as having an analog switchboard or want to comprehensively innovate IP PBX application . .

According to Mr. Thuong, the fee level provided by VPT is based on the rates of VNGT should be lower than other common calling methods. Suppose a month, the company calls about 1,800 minutes for international calls, for each type of service will have to pay freight as follows: With IDD: 1,800 minutes x 0.6 USD / minute = 1,080 USD / month . With services 171, 177, 178: 1,800 minutes x 0.4 USD = 720 USD / month. With VPT service: 1,800 minutes x 0.03 USD = 54 USD / month.

Thus, if comparing VPT service against IDD, the company saves 1,026 USD a month, which means that it reduces 95% of international call charges. If compared with services 171, 177, 178 . then the company saved 666 USD a month, which means reducing the international call charges by 92.5%.

Thus, VPT's solution helps to reduce telephone charges significantly for businesses and 'delete' telephone charges between branches belonging to the same enterprise (instead of subscribing to Internet lines).

' VPT is a solution provider. Depending on the needs of customers, we will choose for them the most suitable equipment and services. For example, VUS is using VNGT's voice service charge - a provider of landline calls to mobile phones overseas - among the lowest in the market. However, later if there are equipment and services with lower rates, we can still consult and install for customers, 'Thuong said.

Mr. Nguyen Bao Nghiep, Director of Information Technology, Dong Tam Nutrition Food Joint Stock Company (NutiFood), said that the company's offices can now connect for free solely based on ADSL, convenient. For work, it saves a lot of long distance calls. Freight management software, also according to Mr. Nghiep, accurate to the second.

After 2 months of trial use, until now, NutiFood has officially put this service into use from the last 7 months. Currently, VPT's solution connects NutiFood's head office in Tan Binh with its factory in Binh Duong on FPT's ADSL line. NutiFood also plans to deploy VoIP to branches in Hanoi, Central and West.

Unlike other VoIP technology devices (not yet standardized by Vietnam Post and Telecommunications industry, such as using illegal cards), VPT now provides equipment and services according to VoIP standard technology of the Ministry of Post and Telematics. The device brings stable quality to all kinds of Internet Phone services of big service providers like VDC, VNGT, Viettel .

VPT's flexible way of providing services can meet the needs of many Vietnamese businesses today. The cost level is also suitable for Vietnamese small and medium enterprises: USD 200 for an adapter device with 2 ports (allows calling and receiving phones via 2 phone numbers).

Enterprises can also be proactive in selecting equipment from many companies.
