What Are the Benefits of VoIP Systems for Accounting Firms?
In the early years, VoIP systems were attractive because of the cost-effective nature of internet voice communications. Today, the advantages of VoIP systems go much further than simple cost savings.
Flexibility
Because of the modular nature of VoIP systems, Alavanca Systems is able to tailor a business telephone system to the unique needs of an accounting firm. We will take the time to learn about your operations in order to customize a system that works the way that you do.
Scalability
We’ve worked with accounting firms long enough to understand that your business has seasonal cycles. VoIP systems are perfect for the scale-up/scale-down ebb and flow of your operations. We set up a user-friendly online control panel that allows you to set up new employees with their own line (or to remove that line) with just a few clicks.
Transparency and Analytics
Sometimes keeping track of telephone calls for hourly billing can be a hassle. Fortunately, VoIP telephone systems give accounting firms granular analytics that enable you to be accurate in your billing while discovering any waste and inefficiencies in time used in telephone conversations.
Legislative Compliance and Archiving
As legislation tightens up on accounting firms across the country, these features are becoming more essential.
Business Continuity
VoIP telephone systems are a critical component of a robust business continuity plan. Internet-based communications allow you to move your operations to any WiFi-connected location in the event that a power outage, natural disaster, storm, human error, or cybercriminal action makes it impossible for you to use the computers and phone system at your main office.
