Let Us Answer Your Questions.
Here’s How Asterick Voice Over IP Can Help You Save On Costs.
Firstly, you may want to know if you will still be using Telkom if you switch to VOIP?
In a typical Voice over IP (VoIP) setup, you may still incur standard Telkom rates when making calls to Telkom’s network. This is because calls to and from Telkom lines must still connect via Telkom’s infrastructure at the point of termination.
While regulatory changes have opened the market to alternative providers and reduced interconnection costs, Telkom’s pricing structure on these interconnection costs often remains high enough to make using other providers financially impractical for certain types of calls.
So, in what ways does Voice Over IP actually result in cost savings?
The Maintain I.T PABX offers a more cost-effective and highly scalable alternative to traditional proprietary PABX systems.
Built on standard PC hardware and powered by open-source technology, it eliminates the limitations and costs associated with vendor lock-in, ensuring greater flexibility and long-term value.
For international calls, you have the freedom to choose your preferred provider and can entirely bypass Telkom by using your data network.
This requires a Voice over IP (VoIP) trunk provider. Maintain I.T offers cost-effective SIP trunk solutions with flexible, month-to-month prepaid options.
Setting up a trunk with the Maintain I.T PABX is simple and straightforward.
If you’re connected with another user running Asterisk, you can establish a trunk between your PABX systems, enabling free calls between the two. This is an ideal solution for businesses with multiple branches or those that frequently communicate with specific suppliers or partners.
