VoIP has quickly replaced traditional phone service over the last few years. As companies strive to cut costs and get more value from their phone providers, VoIP has quickly gained customer adoption. VoIP has weathered the economic turmoil over the last few years and is one of the few industries that has experienced exponential growth.
Infonetics Research estimates that the VoIP services market neared $50 billion in 2011. It forecasts that business and residential VoIP services will grow to $74.5 billion by 2015. The hosted PBX business is expected to more than double from 2010 to 2015. So how does one get started in offering such a service? It is easier than you might think, there are three components you will need in order to offer your own Hosted VoIP service.
First, you will need a VoIP platform or switch. This can be a open-source solution like Elastix, FreePBX, FreeSwitch, Trixbox or a paid versions like Broadsoft and others. There are literally hundreds of free and paid versions of these types of platforms out in the market. Some are fully hosted and some are premise-based. This platform will provide all of your class five features. Class five include features such as voicemail, call forwarding, hunt groups, auto-attendants and more. Some platforms are capable of supporting multi-tenant, while others can only support a single company. Features and pricing vary across the board. Determine what your target market ahead of time, so you can figure out the best one to fit your needs.
Second, you will need to find a VoIP carrier. These services are also known as class four. The most important is origination, also referred to as DID’s or phone numbers. Coverage is king, so make sure your provider has the largest footprint available in your target market. Termination is also necessary; it is typically referred to as long distance or outbound service. As a VoIP provider, you are required to offer e911, no exceptions. Then there are other services like 411, caller ID, directory listing, T.38, etc. You may find that it is easier to start with one carrier that can offer all of the above services. Quality is the key when choosing a carrier. Make sure they offer 24/7 support and that they can offer you real time reports. Reporting is the most crucial aspect of this business and the more information a carrier can provide, the better.
The third and final piece is end user equipment or software. You can choose to offer this directly or let your customers bring their own device (BYOD). Most ITSP’s will offer some kind of ATA (analog telephone adapter). Linksys is by far the most common and popular with ITSP’s. The ATA allows end users to simply plug their existing analog phone into the device, which then plugs into their data network. Another option is to provide an IP Phone. IP Phone are the most popular choice for businesses. Many of these IP phones have built in buttons to support some of the advanced class five features offered by some of the platforms. One last option that is quickly gaining popularity is to provide some kind of soft phone or software. Many companies are electing to install software on their computers and forego phones completely. There are also apps you can download to your mobile devices that allows you to make VoIP calls over a Wi-Fi network.
Nick Medina is VP of Business Development for VoIP Innovations. VoIP Innovations provides wholesale origination and termination services across the globe. They offer one of the largest DID warehouses with over 500,000 DID’s in stock in over 8,500 rates centers. Their proprietary software, TITANIUM III, allows ITSP’s to quickly provision DID’s as well as e911, CNAM, caller ID and more.

VoIP Innovations announced the launch of their enhanced E911 service to their Titanium III Platform. Service providers, carriers and resellers can now register both on-net and off-net DID’s for E911 service through the Titanium III portal or through VoIP Innovations’ API. This service is available for all 50 states in the US, Canada and Puerto Rico.
“We realized that a lot of VoIP carriers are inflexible by only offering e911 service for DID’s residing on their network,” stated Jason Tapolci, President for VoIP Innovations. “Our goal is to provide a ubiquitous and single source vendor portal for service providers. Unfortunately, E911 is one of those services that no one really wants to sell, but is a very necessary component of our industry.”
There are some vendors that are strictly providers of E911 service out there, however, they have traditionally charged thousands in setup fees and forced companies to sign long contracts with high commitments. VoIP Innovations realized they could save their customers a lot of time, energy and money by offering this additional service.
Patrick Hughes, IT Manager for a Hosted PBX provider, stated, “We use VoIP Innovations to register all of our DID’s for E911 services. Even the ones we get through other carriers. We do this because the other carriers don’t provide the portal tools and API’s that VoIP Innovation has. At the end of the day, scalability is key factor for us as we are adding about 30-50 new customers per day.”
VoIP Innovations is an IP-based wholesale communications provider with more than 20 years of experience in the VoIP industry. With over 8,500 rate centers and 500,000 DID’s in stock, VoIP Innovations boasts one of the nation’s largest VoIP Origination and Termination footprints in North America.

VoIP Innovations announced the expansion of its VoIP termination footprint and service offering for SIP providers. VoIP Innovations has been at the forefront of VoIP expansion and innovation for nearly a decade. It is the underlying carrier for several hundred Hosted PBX, Calling Card Providers, Carriers and Resellers offering VoIP service.
Nick Medina, VP of Business Development for VoIP Innovations stated, “In the last 6-months we have invested quite a bit of financial and human capital into our short duration (dialer) and standard duration (conversational) termination products. We have deployed a new proprietary Least Cost Routing management software, invested in additional switching equipment and added over a dozen new carriers to our routes.”
VoIP Innovations has a business model that is uniquely different than those of traditional carriers. VoIP Innovations offers their own termination routes as well as routes from dozens of the top US and Canadian termination carriers. “By doing this, we are creating a least cost rate deck for our customers and reducing the pain associated with managing multiple carriers.” stated Nick Medina, VP of Business Development VoIP Innovations. In addition to aggregation benefit, VoIP Innovations large traffic volume, allows them to provides a more competitive pricing model than most clients would get direct from those carriers.
VoIP Innovations is also one of the nation’s largest short duration termination providers, also known as dialer or predictive traffic. While most carriers have shunned away from this type of traffic, VoIP Innovations has embraced it. If fact, they invested in their infrastructure to add additional capacity. This upgrade was necessary for the growing demand that would allow several of their dialer clients to have a virtually unlimited amount of concurrent call sessions.
Network infrastructure and voice quality is top priority for VoIP Innovations. They are always looking for additional high quality voip routes. But managing several million routes is no easy task. “We recently deployed proprietary software which provides better route and pricing management.” Stated Tim Linn, Lead Engineer for VoIP Innovations.
It’s clear that choosing the correct termination carrier/partner has become a large part of succeeding in the ever changing voice over IP world. With the wave a newcomers to this market place, it has become increasingly harder and harder to decipher the real players from the “two guys and a free switch” player. VoIP Innovations has quickly earned a reputation for providing a carrier class termination service that rivals the large telcos.

Sure, VoIP is catching on big time. Everybody knows that. It’s just a matter of time, and not a whole lot of time, before it eviscerates old-school telephone service. But military-issue VoIP equipment? That’s some serious stuff.
New York-based company Accusonic Products has introduced a multi-platform VoIP vehicle intercom system, designed with the military in mind. It’s not VoIP’s first foray into international conflict, but it may well be the coolest to date.
Accusonic’s offering is an ultra-light yet extremely durable Integrated Multi Platform (ImP) command and control system with the ability to connect 500 separate nodes simultaneously. The system will be able to transmit voice, data and video simultaneously, meaning the crews of light combat vehicles, tanks and assault boats will have an unmatched level of tactical understanding.
This equipment will literally be used to share strategy while defending positions and launching offensives. Yeah, it’s kind of like how you coordinate attacks with your friends while you play Halo on Xbox or Call Of Duty on PS3, except this stuff will actually be utilized by the real military. You know, the ones who risk their lives so you can sit around in and talk smack while playing that video game?
The system is compact and takes up little space compared to legacy systems, and it’s designed to continue working even after it has suffered extensive damage. It’s really advanced, really cool and it literally has the ability to save lives.
I don’t understand how, at this point in its evolution, people still resist VoIP. If it’s reliable enough to be in charge of out troops’ lives, then it’s probably safe to assume it’s reliable enough for your home or business.
The original story I saw this in is here, and you can take a look at Accusonic’s page and products here.
