Q: What Are Some Advantages of VoIP?
A: Some VoIP services offer features and services that are not available with a traditional phone, or are available but only for an additional fee. You may also be able to avoid paying for both a broadband connection and a traditional telephone line.
Q: What Are Some Disadvantages of VoIP?
A: If you’re considering replacing your traditional telephone service with VoIP, there are some possible differences:
• Some VoIP services don’t work during power outages and the service provider may not offer backup power.
• Not all VoIP services connect directly to emergency services through 9-1-1. For additional information, see VoIP & 911 Advisory.
• VoIP providers may or may not offer directory assistance/white page listings.
Aspects of these considerations may change with new developments in internet technology. You should always check with the VoIP service provider you choose to confirm any advantages and limitations to their service.

Fantastic site, I really like your writing style. Very distinctive and to the point. On a lot of blogs people just drone on and on, but not you – very nice. Keep up the fine work! I find Voice over IP very interesting. I have learned a lot in implementing a small VoIP network at home, and am thinking of starting VoIP business in my area. There are a number of small businesses in my region that would benefit from it greatly.
